The NBA is still a joke
I am watching the Discovery channel and they are advertising that The Deadliest Catch did better than the NBA playoffs if a major sport cannot get better ratings for their playoffs than a reality show they suck at life~

Deadliest Catch owns Cable/Dish TV.

Head to head with a NFL playoff game which one gets better ratings? BTW I enjoy the Deadliest Catch show~

Besides, NFL is National TV, not that I think that matters anymore. I watch National TV probably .0001% of the time offseason. |

I have watched it and enjoyed it. The plot wears thin quickly and the year the captain of one of the ships died is the only time I watched regular~

The NBA is headed for a Lockout of their own.

I'd rather watch Survivor than the NBA. They have obstacle courses.

Couple of things:
1. It's the first round. Even the most diehard NBA fans don't give a shit about Game 3 of Bulls/Pacers or even a premiere matchup like Thunder/Nuggets. 2. Like I said, there are at least four games per series. If each game was life or death like the NFL, I guarantee you'd see a different set of ratings. Not suggesting the NBA should go to that model, I'm just saying it would be a different story in terms of ratings. If a game 7 from this first round shows up alongside a popular cable show like Deadliest Catch, let's see how the ratings fare. 3. Comparing ANY non-football sport to the NFL is dumb. How did the MLB playoffs go? They probably sucked more than the NBA. I know Game 7 of the NHL finals got beat out by Build A Better Burger on Food Network years ago. Yet I don't ever see threads like "Har har... baseball and hockey suck. Football rulez!" 4. The "College basketball is real basketball crowd" (whoever/wherever you guys are) can suck on my penis. Not directed at you, RedNeckRaider. I'm just saying that. |

I've never been that big of a fan of it. I do know that the Royals still do, in fact, suck. In spite of their surprisingly not putrid record.

As far as baseball and basketball I don't watch them at any level less going to a couple of semi pro Kinston Indian games last year~
