I distinctly remember that the NFL tried that out once, where they broadcast a game with no announcers. My Dad and I thought it was amazing, but evidently we were far and few between as I recall they only did it the one time.
What I really don’t understand is how they end a football game and then have to sit around for 20 mins rehashing the game they JUST SAW…
“Remember that time the guy caught the ball and then ran?”
“Oh yeah, that was like 10 whole mins ago.”
“That was so good.”
“Yeah.”
Now, imagine that last bit but in attention-span-segments of random “highlights” during the game …with several different instances of this bullshit grouped every 10ft or so within a ~500sq ft area, along with several TVs pointed inward at largely arbitrary angles and each set to combative volumes…
