Makes sense. You don't need awesome sound to watch sitcoms, soaps, and football.

Or rather, many don't think you do. Having good sound for properly produced NFL games is wonderful.

I have no doubt that it's wonderful, but that doesn't change the basic truth that you don't need it to enjoy a game. Indeed, the last time I watched football, the volume was completely off.
