The Bucks can’t wear cream uniforms because they interfere with digital ads

The digital boards in hockey can get really annoying even when they're working as intended. Animating them should definitely be banned and I wouldn't mind seeing the digital ads disappear entirely.

How soon until we see AI-powered adblockers that filter the output of any signal to remove anything that it perceives as an ad?

The Mute button on the remote is surprisingly useful for this (but not if they overlay the regular programming, obviously). The sound is a big part of why we hate the ads.<p>You&#x27;d be amazed how un-annoying it is to watch commercials with the sound off. Sometimes you watch and wonder what it&#x27;s actually an ad FOR.

Now, how to get everyone attending the games to start wearing cream clothing?

Tangential at best, but there really should be limits to how bright (or white) a digital billboard can be. I’ve been temporarily blinded at night when, while trying to read an ad with a dark background, it switched over to a different ad.

CREAM: Cash Rules Everything Around Me<p>So fitting!

What about player&#x27;s faces?

It&#x27;s kind of weird how Nike owns basketball. The NBA is pretty much one of their marketing arms.

Perhaps they should use AI. It seems to me we should be able to solve this problem long before we have full self driving cars.

Modern television is insufferable.

Paul&#x27;s old mag Beer Frame was the best. Always love seeing him pop up again.

Advertisers are cancer, episode 3850.

I hate advertising so much. I would ban it immediately if allowed. It makes society so much worse in every possible measure.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jacek.zlydach.pl&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2019-07-31-ads-as-cancer.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jacek.zlydach.pl&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2019-07-31-ads-as-cancer.html</a>

From the article: &quot;Teams can’t wear cream anymore because it interferes with the digital ads that are placed on the court in broadcast due to the uniforms being so close to the color of the wood that is keyed out in the process.&quot;

Yet another example of how ads destroy culture. I hate that our society bends the knee to them everywhere.

It&#x27;s interesting that no professional sports team has decided to go full pink as one of their primary uni colors. It would be an amazing branding opportunity.<p>The closest I&#x27;ve seen is Miami Heat&#x27;s Vice unis <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nba.com&#x2F;heat&#x2F;2021-heat-vice-uniform-collection" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nba.com&#x2F;heat&#x2F;2021-heat-vice-uniform-collection</a>.

Cream colored uniforms just make me think of dirty, sweat stained white uniforms.

<i>“I’m not sure I want to deal with the can of worms it will open, so I’ll tell you privately,” he wrote back.</i><p>... and what was told privately is now public...<p>Can somebody that journalisms tell me what just happened?

The author must have gotten permission to repeat this even though it was a &quot;private&quot; Convo. This is just a way for the original source to avoid heat while still giving out the information.

&gt; I have a good relationship with Godsey ... so I emailed him and asked if he could tell me the backstory, even if only off the record, just to satisfy my own curiosity.<p>&gt; “I’m not sure I want to deal with the can of worms it will open, so I’ll tell you privately,” he wrote back.<p>And then the author published it. WTF? They won&#x27;t have a good relationship now!
