FTFY.

Even so, my reaction remains "Meh." I'd rather have my wife.

Most producers would rather have it suck for just the TV audience, because nothing sounds good over a backdrop of boos.
Sorry - that's no excuse. The tech necessary to split the feed to serve the live/local and TV audiences is trivial - and any competent engineers at that level would ensure that each was properly mixed. Heck, assuming your thought was correct a pair of mics on the sideline would have been a better source for TV than what we received.

I've done - and recorded - countless shows in venues from the worst dive-bars to HS gyms to outdoor flatbed-trailer "stages" in an open field, using the most rudimentary equipment for both PA and recording, and my absolute worst screwups were better than the fiasco we're discussing.

Nope - the suggested punishments (above) don't go far enough to give those responsible for this travesty the "reward" they so richly deserve.

Yep. Which is why I always liked this song.
