The other problem is that the US media thinks that real fans care what commentators think more than what is happening on the field. If that was the case, what’s the point of even bothering with the matches, just have the commentators talk.

NBC has been showing the games in the US on a delayed basis, but they obviously didn’t watch the tape before they broadcast it or they wouldn’t have screwed it up so badly. The people who are really interested already know the results before NBC shows the event. It’s stupid.
