I would _never_ try to catch sports on television, anyway. I'd rather go
without than try to fill in the blanks that the so-called play-by-play
announcer leaves because describing something to somebody who is using a
visual medium is...well, pretty stupid, if you think about it. It's either
radio or nothing for me where all sports are concerned and that's been my
rule for a lot of years. In addition to the lack of any meaningful
description, television sound engineers could take a lot of lessons from
radio sports broadcast engineers where crowd noise is concerned. I've never
yet tried to listen to any sporting event on radio where the crowd totally
blotted out the announcers, but this happens all the time on television.
It's just not worth all the hassle.
