minus-squareNorin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 days agoI think it depends on the sport. Then again, I only watch 2 real sports and 1 fake one (wrestling). Football: absolutely better without audio commentary. Baseball: it depends. The local broadcast guys can be pretty good for a lot of regular season games. Wrestling: commentary is part of the TV experience, but not every commentator can be Taz.
minus-squareWhiteOakBayou@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 days agoI like my baseball team’s radio and TV announcers quite a bit (there sure are some bad mlb announcers though). I haven’t watched wrasslin’ in 20 or so years but definitely the announcers are a fun part.
