Yeah and I’m already sick of the news ads on tv.

This and that left REELING after games being dropped.

Can really tell how biased some of the network stations are. Not even 24 hours and rolling out the doom and gloom and political campaigning.

This really speaks to the obscene commercialisation of sport. Because it's not really about the sport anymore, it's about the "prestige" and the money.

for the tv stations it's lost revenue from broadcast/replay rights and ad fees , that would be 100s of millions
