BBC Sport is the division of the BBC providing sports coverage for BBC Television, Radio and Online. The BBC holds the television and radio UK broadcasting rights to several sports, broadcasting the sport live or alongside flagship analysis programmes such as Match of the Day, Test Match Special, Ski Sunday, Today at Wimbledon and previously Grandstand. Results, analysis and coverage is also added to the BBC Sport Website and through the BBC Red Button interactive television service.
Due to the public status of the BBC, advertising is forbidden and as a result, sports matches covered by BBC Sport are not allowed to be sponsored, although the present commercialisation of sport makes this almost impossible in practice. In the face of increased competition from its rival broadcasters the BBC has softened its stance and is now contractually obliged to refer to certain competitions by their sponsored name under the terms of broadcasting rights deals.
The BBC has broadcast sport for several decades under individual programme names and coverage titles. Grandstand was one of the more notable Sport programmes, broadcasting sport since the programmes launch in 1958. The BBC first began to brand sport coverage as 'BBC Sport' in 1988 for the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, by introducing the programme with a short animation of a globe circumnavigated by four coloured rings. This practice continued throughout the next two decades. Upon the launch of the BBC News website in 1997, sport was included in the BBC's online presence for the first time.

Can you feel my skin?
Can you feel my bones?
Can you put my spine
In plaster and take me home?
So unpleasant inside and out
So unpleasant inside and out
If you like I'll tell you about it
You wouldn't want to know
My heads full of water
Tears I never cried
Could you hold me under the shower
In the cold outside?
So unsteady inside and out
So unsteady inside and out
If you like I'll tell you about it
You wouldn't want to be
Separated out
Separated out
Separated out
I need medical attention
Where's my memory gone?
Everything I told you including this
I already forgot
Separated out
From the living stream
The thing that couldn't lie straight
Straight in the machine
So unstable inside and out
Don't know how much longer I'll take it
If you like I'll sell you a ticket
Or you can get in for free
Am I enough of a freak
To be worth paying to see?
Am I enough of a freak
To be worth paying to see?
Can you feel my skin?
Can you feel my bones?
Can you put my spine
In plaster and take me home?
Can you kiss my face?
Let me know it's there
Can you give it shape?
Can you kinda care?
Am I enough of a freak
To be worth paying to see?
Enough of a freak
To be worth paying to see
Enough
Enough
They're pointing and laughing
