How much less attention do you pay to baseball once football starts? (self.baseball)

it's hard to get a proper metric because as a reds fan we're usually out of it by now so it's kinda just acceptance of fate and hope for something better [i like the colts though]

I'm from Kansas City. For most of my life, a successful Royals season has been defined by simply remaining interesting until Chiefs training camp begins in August. I am more of a football fan, so most years, I just totally abandon baseball as soon as football starts.

Honestly, I don't know how folks in areas with consistently good baseball AND football do it. It was rough in 2014-2015 when the Royals were making the postseason for the first time in my adult life while the Chiefs were starting to build something special with Andy Reid. September and October were just exhausting. But, you know, that's one of those "good problems," so I can't really complain.
