I’ll go read or work on a project, but nothing is worth commercials. Sports games are played and fit to the commercials in the USA.
Once upon a time I was into baseball back with Maddux, Smoltz, and Glavine. The Braves were the closest pro team to me as a kid that watched The Sandlot too much.
I’ve caught bits and pieces of the current World Series in passing, but I walk out with every commercial. I just don’t care any more. No content is worth wasting half of my time with whatever wares some shitty billionaire is hocking for rent-scription. I’m worth more than that and I’m not willing to sell myself or my time and interests to these people any more. I reject the premise that this is an acceptable normal. You do you, and value your time accordingly. I see ads as worthless lowlife behavior that belongs scared and intimidated under rocks and hidden in creepy caves. Advertising as some kind of acceptable feature in society or as if it has a right to my time is insulting, demeaning, and unacceptable to me. I reject this dystopia.
I agree that there are too many commercials, especially in sports. However, commercials an ads are what keep shows on TV, unless you’re paying for a service, which is still mostly funded by ads, but it’s grosser.
I didn’t like commercials, and I almost never watch live TV, but I understand their existence as a means for the product to exist for “free”.
If the frequency was less, the volume wasn’t double that of every show, and political ads weren’t allowed or at least limited, TV would be a much happier place.
