It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

So are the TV announcers going to talk a hell of a lot more to make up for this? Listening on the radio would be probably worthless if it's a normal TV broadcast. They leave a lot out.

It's funny because for years I would've loved them to scrap the Jamie Campbell-led TV crew and just use Jerry Howarth's radio call for TV.

And now they're doing the opposite.

It worked for Chick Hearn and the Lakers for a number of decades but that might be more the exception than the rule.

Was about to post this. If not for the delay most Jays fans I know would've tried to watch the game with the radio call and now it's all the opposite. I dont mind Buck at least but Jerry just sounds like baseball and listening to a game over a long summer car ride was always a treat.

Its a lot easier to do with basketball than baseball, I'd think.

Conversely, the TV broadcasts are going to be crap if they keep spending most of the time describing things that are you saw a few moments ago.

Yup, two entirely different mediums so unless they’re just planning on punting radio and doing a straight simulcast it’s going to make the TV product far worse as well.

Alas, some MBA knows better and fan retention is the next owner’s problem.

Maybe they could emulate the "KBO on ESPN" format from last year and spent 85% of the game talking about things that don't even have anything to do with Major League Baseball so nobody has any idea what's going on.

It's actually a dark navy blue color behind the Pels logo :goonsay:, but I still get your point about the bad production. The other team colors they could have used were red, gold, or white.

yeah the 'bad production' point is the important part, others are doing better to match the scoring bug colors to what colors the team is wearing.

and especially for the NBA, with teams having three or four uniforms, wildly different colors, and relaxed rules on what they wear at home (used to always be white at home, that got thrown out a couple years ago), color coding becomes even more important. maybe I'm just an old man who isn't able to watch as regularly but I've felt lost watching some highlights recently.
