I'm watching the Big 3 basketball now in between CWS commercials, and it dawned on me that they, like their corporate overlords don't understand anything other than their deplorable trump voting base.

Dumb camera angles, bad pbp guy and no mikes to catch what's being said on the court. Or at least on the coaches in game (especially the Glove)

No flavor at all.

All Fox television products seem like gaudy but only gilded production pieces. Sports, news, regular programming, etc. I think it all started when they first were awarded baseball programming and started adding fake sliding and batting sounds to the game.

They added fake, chirping birds to the US Open coverage.

I was flipping between this and the Cubs. I felt it was very disappointing in both the presentation and the game itself.

The games seemed like they preferred using one camera to capture the action and there was not any action to capture. I first put it on about 60 minutes in to it and they had some kind of puff piece running instead of a game. Weird programming and no city team representation made it uninteresting. Also,last Night on TNT was the "best Dunker in the World" contest with guys jumping over speedboats,bikes,etc. That was not bad.
