The BBC and sports on the web

The BBC sports web site does a masterful job of providing an over-by-over description of international cricket matches. They even manage to capture the uniquely dry wit of the British sports commentators. The web site also has live coverage of European football (soccer) matches. But I think they've gone a little too far with their live coverage... Now they're providing live coverage of World Snooker 2007! Snooker is a very clever and difficult game, far more so than pool. I even used to watch it every now and then televised on "Pot Black" back in Australia. But it makes for the most incredibly boring web coverage...

Ah snooker! Even English wit can't save that one!
