        Living Spaces is the one that drives me nuts with the woman singing at the end. Plenty others are horrible, but that one in particular just hits a nerve for me.

          I see, you must not have heard the Kars 4 Kids commercials before. 10x more annoying than the little Living Spaces jingle. :)

      I mute live sports, mainly American football.

      I’ll pay the extra football package price, but you couldn’t pay me to listen to the play by play.

      And I might pay a bit more to hear the crowd noises isolated, with ref announcements, if it was offered.

        I distinctly remember that the NFL tried that out once, where they broadcast a game with no announcers. My Dad and I thought it was amazing, but evidently we were far and few between as I recall they only did it the one time.

        What I really don’t understand is how they end a football game and then have to sit around for 20 mins rehashing the game they JUST SAW…
        “Remember that time the guy caught the ball and then ran?”
        “Oh yeah, that was like 10 whole mins ago.”
        “That was so good.”
        “Yeah.”
