Tracks who don't zoom back (do any of them?) the camera when there's a large margin winner,yeah, i know its hard to believe, but once in a while, we might care who's 2nd and 3rd.

Many of the worst cameramen in the business work at race tracks.

When announcers go "full homer" and do it badly. If you're going to root like a fanboy, at least be good and do something memorable.

One more and this may be in the top 3 for me, its when networks showing sporting events run scores updates on the bottom of the scroll on other games. I'm a fan of DVR'ing games and watching them without knowing who won and sometimes i mistakenly see the score and it ruins the entire game for me that i was looking forward to watching and enjoying.

There's no need for it, this is 2015, people can get scores updates with a half of a click of an app or a mouse or something, there's no need for force feed us scores that we can get in less than 5 seconds if we want them, this isn't 1979 anymore.

I'm a little peeved at posters who start RIP posts for people nobody has heard of. Thousands of people die every minute, do they all need their own post? Every one of them? Or can we pick and choose

New rule for PA posters.

If someone dies and you start a thread about their death and the thread doesn't garner at least 10 responses and 500 views, you stop posting for 1 week as punishment.
