What's the difference who's paying for it, it's still more expensive equipment.

Also you are playing a lot fewer games and not playing weeks on end just to play close to 100 games. There is a reason that inner city kids are not playing baseball very much as they have to take on a financial commitment just to play.

You're referring to a very select segment of kids as playing 100 games (a year, I suppose). How does it look for the avg. child player? If you count total field time, practice + games, I bet it's more for football than for baseball for the avg. child playing adult-organized ball.
