DisAdvantage:Tennis Wasteland

Did anyone read this opinion piece by Alexei Miller in Tennis Week:
NBC Is Tennis Wasteland.

Inspired
by this article and the “The Who” tune called Baba O’Riley, sometimes
refered to as “teenage wasteland” my own lyrics about the NBC’ French
Open  Men’s semifinal coverage fiasco.

May “The Who” please forgive me, to the tune of Baba O’Riley please…


Trying to watch live tennis RG fields,
I fight to see live network tennis yields,
I wrench my back to find live streaming
Why do I have to fight
To see Fed-Delpo, it’s live tennis right?
NBC will not be forgiven

Want to cry,
Now I have to watch online,
Watching a tape delayed match is tennis wasteland!

NBC take my hand
Show me live tennis in Franceland!
Put out the fire
Show me live Fed Delpotro!!!
My exodus is near
As Soderling Gonzo on NBC do appear
To the computer to find
A Roland Garros livestream that’s all mine

Tennis wasteland
Tape delayed is tennis wasteland
Tennis wasteland
Oh no!!!
No live Fed-Delpo!
