This paragraph from the article nicely some up what can best be described as "organized chaos":

We've come to take the magic of delivering the game into our homes and favorite sports bars for granted. Sitting inside the Raycom/Lincoln Financial production truck, though, you quickly understand that turning the madness that takes place on and around the field into a seamless program is all about adaptation for the sake of continuity.

All in all, it is a very good article and worth a read.
