I totally dissagree. Many baseball fans enjoy the sport not because of the strategy, but because they see amazing players doing amazing things (with a little help from their friendly pharmacist, but that's another issue).
Imitation is a big drive for many gamers. Not to mention individual fame, especially in MMOGs.
It is a MMOG because all information goes trhough the company's servers. Normal sports games, when played online, are hosted by one of the players, not the company that made the game.
Hence the requiring of monthly fees and such.
