Goodell:
"For example, we know how annoying it is when we come back from a commercial break, kick off, and then cut to a commercial again. I hate that too. Our goal is to eliminate it."
This practice of placing commercials before and after KOs is the most egregious in sports broadcasting. I don't know who decided this would be acceptable, but it's flat-out horrible.
Well, no one has any confidence in Goodell, I don't imagine. But, he said it, which is, to me, remarkable.Maybe they're getting a lot of flack. I know the ratings have been down--maybe internal polling pinpoints this as a problem. But IMO the league could recover some lost good will if they eliminate this.
