No nothing yet.

That's three words but it's pretty damned accurate.


Thank you and you have confirmed my reasoning for not watching any of the nonsense.


I actually tried to watch a bit a few days ago, but the sound in the stadium, "phasing between"  so many microphones, hurt my spacial senses very badly  and I began to feel as if I was being sucked down a drain. I could not stand any more. I had to turn it off. 

I can not seem to focus upon the sounds of the action, but rather, I can not stop my own focus mostly from dwelling upon the sound of the problems they have broadcasting the event and the problems really hurt me.  (They need to learn to double their microphones in each position (even the mobile ones!) and set one of each pair out of phase with the other. This will stop the DOWN THE FUCKING DRAIN phasing issue, by eliminating "out of periphery distortion" of the audio spectrum through "combing distortion"  and phase cancellation determined by distance from the action and the other microphones. I FUCKING KNOW THIS, WHY DO NOT THESE SUPPOSED PROFESSIONALS, BROADCASTING THE MOST IMPORTANT EVENT IN FOOTBALL FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR, NOT KNOW THIS   ...---...  BASTARDS!!!)

It's entertaining at times but there's just too much of it.

Sorry, I can not watch without losing my cool and it has nothing to do with the games.





If the fucking American National Football League can use dual microphones for each location, at least fourteen games in fourteen locations each week, why can the World Cup broadcasters not? 

I hate foreign sports for this reason alone! I even have trouble with watching my favorite, Formula One Racing, for this very reason.

There's too much talking on tv.With the build up to a match and then the talking about it afterwards. I just wanna watch the actual football without all the etra crap

Although with England games I sometimes like hearing what they have to say

Sound has never bothered me with footballl before. I've even been to matches in full stadiums (stadia doesn't sound right  :laugh: ) and never really had any aspie problems like sensory crap

This particular WC is a bit annoying with the horn things tho.

The horns annoy the hell out of me. I can't listen to them so I end up either having the volume turned all the way down or shutting off the TV.

I do not mind the sportscasters, nor the fans enjoying themselves. I object to the lack of professional broadcasting techniques, making it almost unwatchable.

If there was a way, I might watch more, but as it is, I can not.

The horns make me want to kill people.   They seriously need to find a way to make them less annoying while watching the broadcast.
:P   Internets are super serious.

I saw a few football matches when I was at my friend's house. I saw Slovakia and Japan win. When I left it was Cameroon and the Netherlands I think and no one had scored.

watching chile v spain now
Incredibly boring match.   So much passing back and forth by Spain and Chile just lets them because they know they will advance too.   I wish that Chile would have tried to score.

I think Brazil will beat Chile and Portugal might be able to get past Spain.   
:P   Internets are super serious.
