Default Do you even try to keep up with the match commentary?

I've been asking for this for years, but scrolling text along the side or smaller text in the bottom would be much better. i like to see what is said, but theres no way i'm reading and watching at the same time...

pretty basic stuff come on si!

Only time I might check the commentary is when asked about a doubtful situation in my last match, then the commentary can give you a hint if it really was a penalty or not. So I only read the commentary when I view incident from the news.

there is no way you can read the entire commentary and watch 2d at the same time.

both speeds are 1 notch above the medium

why do you even have to read every single word? a quick glance at the commentary line is enough as they're all just regurgitated so it's possible for me to keep track of the words/pitch

i'm usually surfing/chatting at the same time

Norville Rodgers is infamous around these parts
Default

I glance at it to see who is in possession, or who just committed a foul, etc, when the players name/number doesn't pop up straight away. Otherwise, as postal said, i tend to provide my own, somewhat more obscene commentary.
