MLB "Dream Job"

http://mlb.mlb.com/dreamjob/

OMG guise this sounds so kewl and easy. I could get paid for watching baseball?

Read the fine print, man. "You will be charged with watching every single game of the 2011 baseball season".

Every. Single. Game.

Not "every single playoff game" or "every single Orioles game". Every single damn game that gets played.

Let's do a quick rundown (leaving out the postseason, since it's a crapshoot):

162 games times 15 (2 teams play in each game) = 2430 games per season, let's add the All-Star Game for 2,431.

Each game on average is, let's say: 2.5 hours (conservative estimate). 2,431 times 2.5= 6075 hours of baseball during the regular season.

The MLB regular season lasts from March 31st to September 28th this year, or 181 days. 

6075 hours total divided between the 181 days of the regular season equals an average of 33.56 hours a day of baseball. Wonderful.
