Amy and Sorenne and I went to a spring training game in Scottsdale yesterday — Arizona versus Seattle — with the in-laws.
I kept my mouth shut, but after watching and playing hockey, Sorenne and Amy both said, wow, this is boring.
Viewers in Switzerland who sat down to watch Lazio’s 2-0 win over Atalanta on Sunday in soccer – another narcoleptic sport — may have ended up feeling as unsettled as their commentator’s stomach.
In the opening minutes of the Serie A match, the commentary feed fell silent and largely stayed that way for the best part of a minute.
The only sound to be heard above the atmosphere at the Stadio Olimpico was that of the Swiss channel’s commentator retching and heaving.
You can see the footage, which was posted to Facebook by the Average Juventino Guy page. Be warned, it’s not one for the squeamish.
Lazio eventually ran out 2-0 winners over La Dea to keep their hopes of a Europa League place alive.
