You think you had it bad, we created a drinking game that involved two drinks for every stupid comment the announcers made. I'm lucky I still have a liver right now. (I was watching football, and I'm guessing you were, too. But really this could apply to any sport.)
I used to like to watch games on TV with the sound off, while listening to the radio broadcast. Radio broadcasters are virtually forced to do a far better job of describing the game than their TV counterparts.
Unfortunately, my fiance finds the TV/radio thing supremely irritating, so nowadays I'm SOL.
With all this digital tv business, it seems elementary that a subscriber should be able to watch a game with the commentary turned off (just the stadium sound)

(If they don't do something about it soon, one day Phil Simms will be gunned down in a parking lot.)
