My football team has started to do the same thing, every now and then they change jersey throughout the season (without counting the THREE they start the season with) in order to sell new ones
They're making sports really hard to follow, and to be passionate about. Now I only watch it if I catch it in a bar and they have it on, I am hating football, it was on free tv, now some matches are on a paid TV, some other on another one, still paid, before it was wednesday, sunday, now it's monday, tuesday, wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday and sunday. I hope a lot of people stop watching it so that we can go back to something that makes sense
- newfocogi 2y agoWow, my initial thoughts on more jersey variation is "that's kinda fun, but sometimes they're ugly". I'm surprised you think it makes sport hard to be passionate about. I assume you're referring to football (soccer) since you called them matches. Do you really think jersey changes are affecting your passion for sports or is this just another example of the system breaking down, but pay-to-watch is what's really hurting your interest?
- lnxg33k1 2y agoIt's hurting because they're constantly trying to sell you something, even the jersey is full of sponsor in soccer
- syndicatedjelly 2y agoThe multicolored jerseys, not the incessant idiotic gambling ads, are what makes sports hard to watch apparently.
- lnxg33k1 2y agowhy not both, it's not the jersey in itself, its the constant tentative of sell you something
- mmooss 2y agoAren't the sports generally growing their revenue and audiences? It seems the reason for the multicolored jerseys, gambling ads, etc. is you: 'You' (most people reading this) keep watching, no matter what.
