They could have also said "There is a long & boring reason" (which would have saved them some characters and been much more clear & direct, an important thing on Twitter!).

I bet there was some production room mixing board fuckup of some sort. Commentary gets sent to one feed, and not to another, or something.dotsandlineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268642794331962594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388402268988489128.post-32764399912244510592010-02-21T22:57:18.164-05:002010-02-21T22:57:18.164-05:00Good point, that is very possible.

However, if he/she meant "the reason," he/she should have said "There is a reason that is long and boring..." or "There is a reason, which is long and boring..." Rather than, "There is a reason, it is long and boring." In this case, I believe "it" would refer to the object of which the question was asked (the game) and not the reason. However, if we were to give NBC the benefit of the doubt, the question still remains: why would they edit out the sound track from the original video? Because since the game was originally broadcast on TV, it would have had a soundtrack with it, which means someone made the conscious choice to edit out the commentary from the game.The Steelers n'at Staffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13702402270448818375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388402268988489128.post-85375324890169784252010-02-21T22:49:32.406-05:002010-02-21T22:49:32.406-05:00Um, not to defend NBC or anything, but are you sur...Um, not to defend NBC or anything, but are you sure he's not saying that the *reason* is long and boring?dotsandlineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268642794331962594noreply@blogger.com
