Okay so we all know that in these modern ages of commercials and endless promos and all the WHINING that SPOILED ATHLETES do because they aren't forced to live in a giant pile of manure like pro athletes were forced to do in the 1800's when people really cared that there's plenty of time that must be killed during your average sports broadcast. It varies from sport to sport yes, but there's still plenty of time to kill folks. So you as a producer may wish to kill fifteen seconds or so by focusing one of your cameras on any of the following:

1. Celebrities.
2. People who look like celebrities.
3. People with signs. Especially with signs directed towards your TV station.
4. Stray wildlife.
5. Fat people attempting to dance.
6. Kids with facepaint.
7. Kids sleeping (only during the last half hour of the broadcast).
8. Youth groups.
9. Other cameramen (wacky!)
10. Local landmarks visible from whatever venue you're in.
11. The game itself (only if you're desperate).
