Have you noticed over the last 30 or so years in pro sports, all the talk is about the business aspects of contracts, network deals, players’ union issues, etc. Less and less about the pure sport involved. I guess the hyper-capitalists have squeezed the blood out of that turnip and have now moved on to college sports. They have us all talking about “adding media markets.” Who really gives a ___t? About this time of year I would so look forward to buying the annual Street and Smith’s College Football Yearbook, which analyzed the various conferences and teams. Now all of that seems pretty irrelevant. Perhaps I need to find the Nielsens’ Ratings Guide to sports programming in the USA. How are high school sports doing these days? Are they signing media rights deals yet or can I still watch them if I simply want to watch the sports?
