Go along to their next game. Change their minds with a rousing chant. I’m sure you’ll be a great success.

Tigers fans are more worried about winning games than this. I know, I am one of them. Horrible season so far.

There is literally nothing to cheer for. What an awful start to the season. I've never seen anything like it. And I'm a long-time Mets fan. So, I've seen some bad seasons in my time.

How come there are only 12 teams representing the national sport in a country of 120 million?

I could imagine how hard it must have been to watch Big Boss come out and perform but you had to be silent. The cheers that come from the stands are fun to be apart of. Hope we can get back to it like the olden days.

Dont know much about Japan.

Complying and subservience, haven't you noticed, that's the Japanese way.

Didn't Japan's death rate go up last year?

I’m amazed at the extent to which Japanese people will comply with senseless orders.

I'd do it but I can't stand baseball, I don't want to die of boredom.
Yubaru
Maybe not the stadium, but they will escort you out!

I don't feel sorry for them, it's their fault for complying with the dumb rule.

Are you equally amazed by the virus death toll in Japan compared to where you are from?

Why not just shout at the tv while it's switched off? Far less hassle than traipsing out to a stadium to watch people throw a ball around. A lot cheaper too.
