The question is this - should Sky be allowed to eat up the rights to virtually sporting event? OK they pour millions into sport by buying the rights, their coverage is much better than terrestrial tv with all the interactive elements etc and they have numerous channels to show them again and again but people pay for their tv licence and then have to pay again for Sky.
I personally think they should be shown on both terrestrial tv and Sky, that way everyone has the chance to see them and if people want to pay for Sky to get the "extras" then that's up to them.

That's the key to good commentating, lots of commentators just describe what's happening in the game where as he discusses why it's happening, for example why the field is set as it is.
