if radio did do the commentary, it would have to be done in stereo (speech 
on one side, commentary on the other).  or it could be like we've heard on 
too many stations of late where master control is pretty much unattended and 
somehow one of the production studios or newsrooms gets on the air at the 
same time.  not always an intended consequence, but happenstance, 
nonetheless.

but you should be even more ashamed if you did not think to include the 
coupon for the digital conversion boxes with your suggestion for the 
head-gear.  tsk, tsk.
