The Alliance of American Football is already in its third week, and ratings have been mixed.
After a big debut weekend, the league hasn’t been on CBS like it was the first week of action, so ratings have understandably dipped.
However, the internet makes mistakes live on forever, and on Sunday, an AAF announcer made a big one. As you can hear in the video below, he was caught on a live mic saying no one was watching the broadcast:
@TheAAF just left a mic open on their broadcast. Quote "nobody's watching, nobody's listening, nobody cares". Oops. pic.twitter.com/o5uofGGMqa

As a broadcaster, you’re taught to assume every mic is live to avoid things like this, but mistakes are sometimes still made.
Welcome to the world of live television, and welcome to the AAF.
