...the game ends, and they still blab ON AND ON with the f*cking inane "post game wrap-up".

If they're going to make us wait for the damned game to end, then the second the clock reaches 00:00, show the final score for five seconds with a five-second voice-over of who won the game... AND THAT'S IT! OUTTA THERE! GAME OVER!
