Quote:I just mean the regular broadcasts. I never notice if it's NBCSN, WGN, ABC7 or all three, but there's one commercial where a guy is reading a paper announcing the deaths of children that is then re-headlined by commercials' end because...something. It's on constantly. There's another where a guy is talking about his friend who was a wonderful person...eventually killed on his bicycle by a motorist.

Are you talking about the feed on MLB.tv?
The MLBTV feed tends to just repeat the same commercial again and again, which would be maddening, but it rarely involves reckless homicide.
When I was a kid it was the Garden Claw. And then the Garden Claw gold. I believe they were the Cubs' only advertiser until "save big money Menards" ponied up.

Ahh yes, that and crappy commercials for Corner Gas, Andromeda, and Hercules. Don't want to offend anyone here in case you like those shows...just not my cup of tea.
