Dave, you live in a state where no one cares about thugby, why would they show it? You're right about Crawford though, he must be gay.

onya Zed A good primate indeed
Sport should be played not sat on the couch and grow fat watching overpaid humans play the game they get paid to play and listening to hasbeens promoting their advertisers product or books written about how great they think they are........I personally think there should be more pancake chefs on TV so we can get more receipes for them.

Don't ever confuse cricket with mere sport.

Here it is, Australia up against in Perth and is Channel Nine showing the Cricket?

Of course not they've got bloody Current Affair on :mad: :mad:

My pet hate is the fact that all stations seem to ignore their advertised program times because the previous program either runs over time or some station executive thinks we would be interested in the last minutes of a game that runs overtime.

It is not only sport but other shows as well, eg, Australian Idol on 10 always ran late, Dancing with the stars final on 7 ran late and there are many others. This stuffs up video recording of shows you want to tape or later shows on other channels you want to watch.

They do it on purpose to fudge their rating figures. Why they think that the people tuning in to an advertised program want to watch say the last 10 minutes of the boring golf or cricket is beyond me.

Surely it is not beyond their ability to accurately calculate the time a program takes and adjust their schedule and advertised guide accordingly. :confused:

In this instance it is great that channel 9 stuck to their program guides and showed A Current Affair even though I never watch that rubbish they call CURRENT as most of it is old stories rehashed.

I notice a lot are complaining about 9 not suddenly, and unadvertised, changing its program but if say a certain major tool store did the same as you advocate and delay their shipping of orders because others wanted it first all hell would break loose amongst us. Sorry they do that already.

BTW Anything that is played for money is enternainment not sport - they probably all have Actors Equitity Cards.

Some A-Holes have even been known to to call horse racing the "Sport of Kings". In this case they should face the guillotione.

Sport is something done or played for the love of it - not to be paid!!!

[JackoH]

There are only three sports. Hunting, Shooting and Fishing. All the rest are games.

:eek: :eek: :eek:

The only sport I was any good at was two-up, and now you're telling me it was entertainment!!

I'm shattered.
