World Series and NBA debut get high ratings

by admin on October 29, 2009

Both the World Series and the start of the NBA season brought in big numbers for their respective networks this week. The MLB faceoff between the Yankees and the Phillies score Fox a 6.3 rating share or 19.3 million viewers in their timeslot. The NBA’s doubleheader opener on Tuesday helped TNT score a record-breaking 3.7 million viewers.

Stories like these make me long for the Yoda-like wisdom of baseball’s Yogi Berra. Just think of the grammatically incorrect gems he could conjure.

“People watch sports because it’s easier than playing it.”

“Sports has a big following because so few people follow it.”
