Message: [QUOTE="MDTed, post: 789476, member: 32475"] Well, since watching it on television is one of the most boring things I can imagine I doubt it will make any difference to me. I'm certainly not planning to play in it barring some type of miracle win on Stars that gets me a seat (which I would then try to sell to someone for whatever I could get) and even with a seat I doubt I would make it far before succumbing to the boredom of a live event and going all in with nothing. The reason the ratings are down for tv coverage is that they give the players too much time to make decisions. It's like baseball, without the obvious ball scratching. Who wants to watch while someone sits there for 3 minutes before making a play? Not that I really want this to happen but I think it would be interesting if during the 3 month hiatus one or more of the competitors became incapacitated and unable to play. I can just see the lawsuits now. [/QUOTE]
