An idea to improve NFL broadcasts

Wouldn't it be awesome if the networks would use their SAP channels to deliver a commentator-less soundtrack? Or, possibly better, pipe in the local radio broadcast (although this would never happen for a couple of reasons). The SAP spec allows for more than one additional audio channel, they could still do their Spanish language coverage, if they want, and provide me with Kornheiser, Gumbel, Simms -less bliss.

This weekends game will be the third one I watch with the TV on Mute and Mitch/Len on the radio. I've gotten so fed up with the network commentators that not only have I started muting them but I also watch very few other games especially MNF. I've almost given up on anything not Chiefs related on TV because I can't stand the level of idiocy and ESPN style Access Hollywood coverage. I don't think even becoming a Pats fan would help, stupid is still annoying even if it's about my team.
