A lot of sports fans share a love/hate relationship with Sky Sports News. On the one hand, they deliver fast news on a wide range of sports for 24 hours a day, on the other hand, they can be similar to a parody of a news channel at times.
You would think that we could just NOT watch Sky Sports News if we hate it, right? Wrong. It's 24 hours a day, which means that for 20 hours a day it is the ONLY THING ON TV that isn't Jeremy Kyle, and it's free if you don't have all the channels.
Anyone who has worked a night shift, has insomnia, or is currently in college will know that sometimes you don't have a choice.
Sorry, it's Sky Sports News "HQ" now. We forgot.
Here are 10 things we are dreading the thought of having to watch on Sky Sports News HQ Exclusive And Live this summer.
Netball
We get that Sky are trying to boost the female participation in sport in the UK, and that is a great initiative to push, but nobody wants to know what's happening in netball. I'm sorry. There are far more interesting womens sports out there.
Massive iPads Everywhere
Time to go over to Darmesh and the Sky Pad so he can tell you again that there may be interest in Wesley Sneijder from a number of Premier League clubs.
This Guy
And the way he puts emphasis on EVERY. SINGLE. WORD.. Unwatchable.
County Cricket
Look, the World Cup is interesting, sure, but county cricket? Surely everybody who is interested in the scores is actually at the game? Oh, Lancashire have taken another wicket against Surrey... Great.
Interviews With People Queuing For Season Tickets
Newly promoted club? Strange fans who have nothing better to do than queue for two days for a season ticket? Get a camera down there stat!
"Sky Sources"
So mysterious. Typically used to conveniently promote the latest Sky Bet odds.
Transfer Deadline Day
What was once a good watch has descended into a Jim White wankfest, and he is one of the cringiest people to ever be given a wankfest. Yellow ties, over-dramatisation of Championship loan deals, and still images of Big Ben. Painful.
Visiting Every English League Team
Why do they do this? Who wants to watch Sky reporters take helicopters to check out the crap in Wycombe's club shop?
Elite League Speedway
Ah here.
Pointless Stat Comparisons
Even better when they read out the four tweets they received about the stat that were safe to say on television.
