telecasts. The network ignores
sports' appeal in the first place —
tradition and excitement.
Putting aside the sack-dancing,
crotch-grabbing nuances of 21st
century sports, you watch
essentially the same games as
your grandparents. For a lot of
American families, sports are
the only common ground of
communication, the only
conversation family members
can share. The pure joy of
watching a quarterback ayoid a
blitz and complete a third-and
long pass is genuine, whether
you're 15 years old or 55. You
don't need to know if 80 percent
«
of the country thinks that Torry
Holt is a chicken, or a dancing
robot to tell you when next
week’s games are on. All you
need is someone with talent and
experience to describe the action
to you — someone like Pat
Summerall.
