Ha! Yeah. Depends what you are in the mood for. Sometimes American Broadcasters seem to feel the need to talk like girls all the time and all I can think is STFU because I’m trying to focus. But on the other hand, I do love a good display of useless trivia-knowledge

As for your post, well, it’s a typicall case of the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.
