Sports commentaries (self.Blind)
submitted by rebel_134
For those who watch sports, do you find the commentaries to be helpful? I do for the most part, except when they do analysis during the game. If I wanted to find out how each player will be doing this season, I can just listen to a podcast. But I just want to know what’s going on. Besides, I feel like you miss some action while they’re talking. If that makes sense?

Generally, judo commentaries are fairly descriptive, but sometimes they're too vague, at least for me. As a judoka I like to know how stuff is done in details and sometimes they just say "x did a wonderful throw".

The BBC often has a radio commentary for big sporting events. I like to watch the telly muted to see what I can and listen to the radio one at the same time (because the radio one is inherently designed for people who can't properly see what's going on).

Hi, when the analysis is happening we are usually not missing something of importance. We won't miss a team scoring for example.

I wonder if any US channels do that?

I don't know, but the BBC radio broadcasts are usually accessible worldwide so for live events at least you could listen to them while watching the US channel, depending on which sports it is you're interested in (association football, tennis, cricket, rugby - you're in luck; baseball, hockey, basketball, American football - it won't help...).
