Re: TV
I always mute sporting events, only un-muting to verify certain things, I do
admit to listening to Heinsohn for entertainment. Why do we need announcers
to tell us what we're watching???

shrieks constantly.

ten seconds, used as a promo for the next game. Ditto when they show "first
half highlights" consisting of 20 baskets in ten seconds.

analyzing the game or team. He IS called an analyst, right?
