I am entering my senior year at Pitt for Anthropology. And holy crap I can't wait for my final year to be over with. On the other hand, I have absolutely no idea what I am to do after I graduate. Anyone need any old stuff dug up?
Wow, so do any of you who use max size multitask at all? Usually when I'm watching a video, giantbomb or otherwise, I will be playing solitaire, or kdice, or tetris, or something. Or have another window open to do more browsing in.
My resolution is 1680x1050, so it isn't small or massive by any means
Personally I use Giantbomb to set the width of my internet browser. I make it so the entire width of the site fits in my window, not any more. Anyone else do this?
I did read the whole thread so this might have been said.
But here is another reason Association Football will never be a big spectator sport in the United States. Network Television. During a match there are only 3 times to show commercials, the beginning, halftime, and the end. This does not fly because the networks just can't get enough revenue out of it so they never show it. Look at American Football, there are many times to show a commercial, after every score, after every kick, half time, end of the quarter, timeouts, etc. Association Football only has one time where play is completely stopped, halftime. So since networks can't get enough money from advertisers from commercials they don't really have a big incentive to show matches. There is definitely an audience, look at youth soccer in the States, and lots of the MLS teams have very devoted followings, especially with the Latin community. In my opinion it just comes down to the dollars.
That being said, I have no idea how commercials and sponsorship works in Europe and Latin America so I could just be completely wrong.
