Viewership for the world series:Awful Announcing posted:The hopes for a strong viewership number for Tuesday’s World Series Game 6 were snuffed out early on. The Braves took a 3-0 lead in the third inning, doubled it to 6-0 in the fifth, and never looked back en route to a 7-0 win and the franchise’s fourth World Championship, and their first since 1995.

I thought they killed it like a decade ago. I loved Sports Century and that it occasionally had live games between like, Army and Rhode Island.

It's usually on one of the TVs at the gym, either on a Georgia-Georgia Tech game or something involving Michigan. It could have been something very nice, but they quit trying at about the time YouTube started allowing longer videos. Even now, it wouold have been awesome had they taken the Casey Kasem's America's Top 40 approach and reaired This Week in Baseball and those old weekly NFL recaps. Hell, old SportsCenters. I think the original Classic Sports Network had a wider range of programming than what ESPN and its infinite library shows now. I'm shocked it's taken this long to cut it.

Yeah gyms and hotels are the last places I notice it It had a real, honest to god great niche when it started, and when I was in college, in the days before you could find nearly everything you ever wanted to see again on the internet. I will be sad it is gone but I haven't watched it in at least a decade either

Hot take: Fox's scoring bugs are the best. At least for baseball and football. No clue how they managed to get that for basketball.

FOX is funny because they can never decide if they want a scorebar or scorebug by the year so they just change it repeatedly

Obviously they wouldn't be playing on a Friday but curious if the media contracts for, say, the SEC actually forbid that from ever happening or if the language is the same and it's simply understood that they would never want to do it or even schedule their programming in a way that would raise the question.

Vertical Lime posted:the usmnt-mexico world cup qualifier conflicted with undefeated cincy football If it was a friendly, they wouldn’t have moved the Cinci-USF game. But it’s a World Cup qualifier, against Mexico, which is guaranteed to be one of the higher profile games of the year. They kind of had to. As always, blame goes to FIFA for putting so many loving international windows into the schedule.

 The game just started so I guess showing each the teams' records instead of, y'know, the score on the scorebug is not the worst thing in the world - except that's not Montreal's record?? They're 4-10-1! Well done, Bally.
