I got a complaint about the TV networks who broadcast football games and think it's a good idea to capture the crowd sounds and include them in the audio as you watch the game. It sounds like a lot of static to me. Sometimes I can't hear what the Zebras are saying when they explain a penalty. Saturday I was watching Fla St Univ vs Okla St Univ and I just put the TV on mute. It was nice. Anyone else fed up with all the crowd noise during a football game?
I don't mind the crowd noise. When watching Alabama play, I prefer to hear the game called by their radio crew, but that doesn't always work due to broadcast delays being out of sync. I don't mind if the radio broadcast lags just a bit, but I can't stand to hear what is going to happen prior to seeing it when the video has the greater delay.
I'm glad you mentioned about the sound. When I watch a game, I hear nothing but incessant screaming from the crowd.
The last four NCAA football games I have watched this season the sound is much quieter. Much nicer. Maybe the execs heard my complaints.
