So you gave up on the NFL in the 20th Century. What did you do about this century, the 21th?
Well, it made it easy for me to dump television in 1997. and never turned back.
I’ve been exposed to televized sports from time to time, obviously. I find the floating cable camera over the football field fascinating. Really makes it like a video game. I also like the CGI lines across the field depicting the progress. But the game is now so riddled with commercials that it is virtually unwatchable.
When a bunch of guys get together to watch a game, the game is really just the excuse to get together. What they end up doing is talking and watch commercials or analysis with a few brief moments of actual football squeezed in.
I enjoy watching minor league baseball live. We get seats three rows up from the third base line dugout for $13 each. And that is the shady side (important in Louisville).
