Why are american sports about so much Hype instead of actual game play??
IRAN iz Gangsta!:
every year NBA, NFL draft or whatever else is made such a huuuuge deal, they advertise it like its an actual game. What happens on that day? teams pick new players...ok but nothing happens...it doesnt mean they did anything, they just take pix and sign a contract...the real game starts months later. But they advertise it on tv like its a final
same with all the shows analyzing this and that, talking about stats and history...who cares...some of the stats are so dumb too....player X is the 3rd player in history to score on min. 4:20 shit like that...stats that have no value or sense
Lets just focus on whats real....THE GAME! fuck the other non-sense

You just set up a thread focused on bitching about what American sports media focuses on. You....are....a....fuckin....dumbass.
They focus on it, because that is what people want to see. When Football is in its offseason...Football fans are still interested in Football. When Basketball season is over, Basketball fans are still interested in Basketball. They want to see how next season might shape up, etc.
You should consider going back to Iran. At least you wont have ANYthing to get hyped about over there. Im assuming Soccer is the #1 sport? LOL You guys are fuckin amazing at it.

football(soccer) is exactly the same during the off-season i dont really see the point of this thread tbh
Javier:
What really bugs me is the emphasis on mini story lines in a game, and this happens in every sport. Recently, Manny Ramirez return to Fenway was bigger than the series itself. And we had two storied franchises facing each other. Anytime Portugal has played in the world cup, the commentators really put the storyline of Cristiano Ronaldo either being the leader that the team needs and all this other blah blah blah shit. Hardly any tactics or game analysis is talked about during these games.
