On field digital advertising

[CyberB0b]

Anyone feel like this is going too far? I mean the game is already 70% commercials. Are they going to do this regularly during the season?

I think most of these games are patched in through the home team's local affiliate, so once they go national, I doubt it.

I was thinking that, but I have seen it before, I just can't remember what sport.

What is on field digital advertising? I'm not sure I have ever seen it.

I think it's a pre season thing only.
I sure hope it is....

This crap.

Thank you for that, CyberB0b. Now that I see what it is, I don't like it, either. If I had a TV, I would simply turn it off. To me, distractions like that are the moral equivalent of a burglar. We can afford to buy as many TVs as we want but we don't want any. The decision not to repace our lightning-burned out TV has given my wife and I more peace of mind than anything else we could have done. Yeah, i miss the games but to me, that's a small price to pay for peace of mind. I'm just not the football fanatic I used to be.

I was stuck with the Raiders broadcast on NFLN and there wasn't any on field advertising. But from the couple Cowboys broadcasts I saw last year they had the advertising on the field as well.
