Comment on Why do sports commentators talk soft bullshit?
psmgx@lemmy.world 9 months agoaye. they ain’t got time to explain the history of the wildcat offense and how it’s evolved into the 3x3 and bla bla bla cuz half their audience doesn’t care, is drunk, and wants to hear about the play thats going on right now.
it’s a low level drone until something important happens and i means i need to look at the screen. otherwise watching the whole thing in silence would be weird.

I would prefer the option to watch in silence (game sounds only), honestly. I love the experience of going to a game and I don’t need people telling me why plays are important or that a player just exceeded some random stat to enjoy it.

with respect, I believe that’s called the mute button

I’d still like the game sounds and referee calls, though
