Having recently arrived back from tree hugging in New England I have just recovered from watching various American sports on the tv channels when in hotels.
So, I managed to watch their Rounders, Rugby whilst wearing crash helmets and, Mens Netball and I didn't initially understand their obsession with sports that have 30 seconds of action with 10 minute breaks until I watch what was laughingly described as their Ryder Cup coverage - 2 minutes of golf, 10 minutes of adverts, they miss any vital play in order to sell a box of incontinence pads! I finally realised that their own sports are designed to fit round their tv ads and not the other way round - just hope we don't end up the same!
