Default Too much sport on BBC TV?

Well, if you mean yesterday it was an unusual day with Tennis, Cricket,
Grand Prix and netball all on the one day. Quite how come it all fell on the
same day seems a tad lacking in planning between the sports, but then nobody
ever said those in charge of sport were known for their communication
prowess did they?

I agree about sport, it seems to me that even with some big sporting
franchises now being owned by pay channels there is still far too much that
has to be put out on regular channels. If they did get rid of a few of the
crap channels or make them part time when there is no sport then it could
be made into a sport free zone on the main channels.

Mind you they would still find some kind of sport, I'm sure even if its
Dwarf Throwing or Bog Snorkelling!

I think so, but there I am not a sport enthusiast. Having ignored reams of
sport reporting on breakfast TV I settled down to watch a report about
knife crimes interviewing the Mayor of London, then to towards the end they
started to talk about sport with him! Perhaps there should be a sport
channel, after all they have done it for the children's programmes.
