Washington in two playoff games tonight (g5 NBA, g7 NHL)
as pure spectacle: night and frackin' day
in this corner: frustrating overly-interrupted series of 50/50 decisions/calls/non-calls, leading up to dozens and dozens and dozens of damn-near meaningless points, broken up by time-outs upon timeouts and video-review upon video review
and in this corner: continuous end-to-end action where each and every goal/near-goal is crucial
i'll bet on basketball but i won't watch the horseshit...as spectacle it's worse than watching paint dry...it's like watching two colors of paint dry with arbitrary decisions somehow determining the "winner"...
