One of the ITV channels was showing the Patriots game, but every few minutes they'd break away to a studio in London where a Brit would ask a Yank very basic questions about the rules. I've no idea who either of them were. In one segment, the Yank explained the concept of punting the ball, but the Brit kept saying bunt, and it was clearly irritating the American. Given when I was watching it in Central Asia, it had to be airing in the overnight/early morning hours in the UK. I had to wonder why they'd bother with informational wraparound segments; one would think if you were up at that hour and watching the game, you'd already understand the basic rules, or -- unlike the British co-host -- at least know how to correctly pronounce the rules.
