The Sound You Hear is a Thousand Cars Crashing Simultaneously.
The NFL announced plans yesterday to bring its titanically successful NFL RedZone channel to cellphones, starting next season. Yeah, I said it.
Does the NFL RedZone alert you when your marriage enters the red zone?

My favorite part, the quote of the clueless CBS exec:
“RedZone hasn’t hurt us yet, but we watch it very closely,” said Sean McManus, president of news and sports for CBS. “Anything that would adversely affect our ratings on a Sunday afternoon would be a major concern to us.”
Oh, yeah? ‘Cause I never watch your painfully slow broadcast any more, and there are a lot of people like me. Who needs to sit through three hours of commercials, delays, and Neanderthal commentary for the 11 minutes of football that’s actually played? A: Nobody who has RedZone.
(I just hope they make an application for the iPhone.)
