re: Cannot express enough how much better ESPN was at broadcasting Florida @ LSU

I was in television 35 years. ESPN is a cable company, no restrictions on commercial breaks. NBC, ABC, CBS and FOX are broadcast networks, once upon a time could not have a break longer than 2 minutes but could do a station ID and have 2 more minutes. Al Gore declared the NAB code unclear, changed all the rules and f.....d up everything. If you notice on almost all network games, first half are all big network sponsors, local gets the second half because if a game is a blowout ratings are higher in the first half so the stations don't owe advertisers points. Most arguments here are wrong, really wrong.
