Bafana Bafana Live On SABC? Rather Watch SAMTA Awards.

Mzansi 4 sure. The national broadcasting cooperation, SABC-TV looted all our money and bought all our right to watch our team live on TV, Bafana Bafana. They claimed they cleaned the banking accounts to buy the rights as they had to bid for the rights that were first ceded to a French company as the Sierra Leone nationals said that South Africa hosted the 2010 FIFA World Cup, therefore has money to pay more.

After coughing up so much bucks to seal the deal, all they managed to do at that cost, was not to show us the match. There may not be a single recording of that match. I hope there is. All you and I can receive for buying all the pop corn, potato crisps, soft drinks and liver burning alcoholic beverages and sitting put in front of the screens channel surfing for the match, is a 'Sorry'. SABC wants me to let you to know they are very sorry for the inconvenience. 

The good part, is that they do not have the cash anyway to pay for your loss of business due to the non-screening of the match, nor can they compensate for emotional distress caused by their incompetence. So that they can draw our sympathies, they have the weather to blame. That one is a good one as only God is responsible for the skies. The atmosphere was unfriendly that the crew of 4 and equipment were stranded in Ivory Coast and there was nowhere to get to the match venue in time for the match.

You and I must be sympathetic catastrophe and understand the stress of the workers wanting to do a job in one country while being in another. I think the problem actually lies with the fact that while SABC-TV bring us the best entertainment and reports in the whole world, they do not watch TV. If they did, their own channels spent the week asking Bafana Bafana to buy 6 stud boots because the north Africa weather was bad. It rained everyday. Pitso Mosimane made a plan B as well as C. SABC-TV's plan B and C and D and E was just plan A. Hence we are here. No one thought to go Sierra Leone earlier in case it rains in Ivory Coast. Then it rained and we were doomed.

This is not to say that SABC-TV did not try their best, as you can see. At least we were never going to watch a wonderful show called SAMTA Awards. That was plan A-1. All we can say is that we are sorry they did not screen the match and that there is no refunds for getting the rights of the match they did not screen. They can always increase the TV license fees to boost their bank balance. They also want you to know that after this you can watch all the Supersport channels as much as you want while that crew is trying to find their way back from the Ivory Coast. Meanwhile, go and buy extra TV licenses before those guys arrive and be better prepared.

What is SAMTA awards anyway? Somebody help.
