Joe Blogs: Exhilaration Gap
Joe Blogs: Exhilaration Gap: But the gap people were talking about -- let's call it the "Exhilaration Gap" between watching a sport live and watching it on TV -- is almost certainly a more interesting topic. Here, then, are the Top 10 sports by Exhilaration Gap. I even put a little score by each sport: 100 means the sport is boundlessly better live, -100 means the sport is boundlessly better on TV. And, you should know, these numbers were carefully calculated and recalculated in the time when I wasn't checking to see if any baseball news was breaking at the winter meetings.
