limp_cheese posted:In an attempt to connect with the youth of today Nickelodeon aired a NFL game live for the first time on Sunday for the Bears vs. The Saints. It was surreal. Graphics everywhere, the commentary sounded like the deluded ravings of insane people, and technical glitches abound. poo poo like cutting away to people that are talking but don't have audio, not showing replays, or even not focusing in on a player after they were booted from the game for fighting and only mentioning it in passing. It was really entertaining. Not Nick, but some boomer aired live coverage of E3 on Disney XD once. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVjRaagwSUM

The weirdest part was it was on like a full two minute delay to get all the crazy cartoon things inserted, so they had more than enough time to just mute it out or something.

I was actually wondering about that when there was a game on the other day. It was just whatever channel normally airs football, but now that they have the helmet mics, there was a llllllot of fucks flying around. Is there like...a plan for that or is everyone just pretending it's not happening?

Ak Gara posted:We...we are literally called limeys for all the fruit we ate for the vit C. Which is schaednfreude in itself because limes were way less effective than lemons but we used them because we had lots of imperialist lime plantations in the Caribbean. We found a cure for scurvy and then forgot it because we cheaped out on the effective treatment.

limp_cheese posted:One of the announcers was a 15 year old girl who had never watched football before. It was beautiful. This was like when they gave YTV, a crappy Nick knock-off station in Canada, the rights to air the NBA draft. You had these young hosts giving live commentary on the draft, none of which had any clue about basketball. All the while they're giving everything a "kid" spin, since YTV was a kids channel. "Up next is.. La... Lammer Od... Lammer Oddum? He's a good... basketer, from what we've heard. His basketball goals record is quite good, he's supposedly excellent in his... role, on the team. Oh, and it looks like they're trading his pick for two other picks to be named. We don't quite know what that means, but well try and get that clarified a little later on."

Serephina posted:Apparently a Terry Pratchett / Discworld reference for 'God'? Sorry, I thought it was funnier than it turned out to be. Nuggan is a god of the Discworld, and even the other gods think that he is overdoing it. Chocolate and garlic are among the things forbidden to his worshippers. "When you prohibit you don't meth about, do you?" said Offler. "No sense in forbidding broccoli, is there?"

I remember it was number 17 but whenever they showed a clip it didn't have him in it, and when he was leaving the stadium it was a long shot of the entire field. The announcer was explaining it as "You know when you're playing with your cousins its going to get a little physical, but at some point someone goes a little too far and needs a timeout."

Nuggan is the god of a backwards little hick country, is insane and, I think, quasi-dead? and his holy book is 99% things that are abominations unto Nuggan and must be shunned or destroyed. Including chocolate, garlic, and all of the country's neighbors. And it keeps updating with new things to abominate every so often. Like, imagine if the entire bible was a TOS contract composed of the parts of Leviticus that get all the attention.

Just wanna chime in to say I appreciate Did world and references, I breathed that poo poo. Read all the books, some of them several times, and then listened through them again as audiobooks. Wondering what Pratchett would have made of last year.

It's one of the food and drink items associated with an ethnicity, and it just so happens that such items associated with black people are used even more derogatorily than normal, and they're plenty derogatory as is.

oh dope posted:Pro wrestling yearns, especially since Vince McMahon took over the entire business, for mainstream acceptance. Displaying well known, legitimate tough guys in their ring is one of the ways they do it. Ken Shamrock, Kurt Angle, and Brock Lesnar are examples of this. The problem is, these guys expose the fluffy muscle wrestlers as total schlubs in terms of real fighting skill, (or worse, the exact opposite happens) and it wrecks the illusion. Brock did pretty okay, in his .. probably 'exhibition' bouts. Not sure if they were supposed to be thrown. But the sheer mass of that dude, and his wrestling background. He wasn't a slouch. But yeah, when it came to a real MMA fight, he'd lose. He was just legit a good athlete and a scary size. Like they had to make XXXXL gloves for him or something. I could be remembering wrong.
