that damn "dock ellis pitches a no-hitter on lsd" again. i wouldnt post this but i thought the way its presented is pretty cool.
During the week I have no cable. So I stream Netflix on the iPad. It's not easy to navigate the Netflix ap but I get by. Been mining the classic album series. Among other documentaries.

qatar "won" the rights to the 2022 world cup, then they spent $200 million to advertise themselves on barcelonas jerseys for the next ten years. after that they bought paris st. germain in the french league and started scooping up talent for them, and finally theyve launched a new soccer channel and have been aggressively buying up broadcasting rights around the world. for the us market, they now control rights to the italian, french and spanish leagues. not a bad thing on the face of it (for me as its only available at the moment via satellite) but i cant see with only one channel how theyll manage scheduling conflicts. all three leagues were broadcast on separate channels last year so there were games from each league broadcast live simultaneously .
anyway, the station is beIN Sports owned by the good folks at al-jazeera. i guess i should be happy that the new NBCSports channel wasnt in the mix.

some bbc fare to look for soon.
so im minding my own business watching comedy central when i realize the first commercial break seemed kind of long but i thought maybe the first segment was long and they were just compensating. but the second and third breaks were just as long which is when i realized that they added six extra minutes of commercials to a rerun of a show that aired earlier. also the reruns of the daily show and colbert also had six extra minutes tacked on. so i scrolled through there entire schedule for a few days and almost every show that wasnt first run had between three and six minutes of extra commercials.
so theres that.
