Extreme parity in football. Aside from the Pats, which teams will be good, bad, or mediocre next season? Nobody knows.

Also, exceedingly low playoff thresholds in the NFL and NBA and NHL. I mean, when .500 or below teams are regularly making the playoffs, it is just rediculous. People have conniption fits over a mere 8 teams making the MLB playoffs, but three 8-8 NFL teams are OK?

And, lastly, yes, broadcasting has gotten very, very annoying. Stupidity and a lack of insight run rampant. During today's Reds game, I heard the color guy say, "Pedro Martinez, guys like him aren't Hall of Famers because they played in just one league or another. Those guys are gamers." What The Fuck Does That Mean?
