I agree Jackson/Van Gundy are great together.


ESPN should air more sporting events. I'd rather watch tennis/soccer/golf action going during the day than talk shows who turn sports into soap operas.

Most ESPN viewers aren't real sports fans. They love hearing about A-Rod, Manny, and all the other stupid side stories, opposed to the games themself.

I do not get why they always show the Spelling Bee.:think2:

I believe this is coming up this week, and I think I heard that ABC is broadcasting it?? It may be that ABC is broadcasting the Finals, and ESPN is showing the semis or whatever. Regardless, I agree with ya

dont watch it if you dont like it. sheesh

Now that I can get the sports scores on-demand on Directv, I barely watch ESPN anymore. Do like the ESPN Classic though. I feel much smarter to this change of events.

nothing as bad as that "who's now!" bullshit.

i honestly have grown to hate espn, but often there is no viable alternative, although mlb and nfl network are getting there.

college gameday during football season is the only thing i actually look forward to on the network any more.

Now comes the long stretch in between kickiff, what do we do? This is when the bears sleep for six months or is when humans get restless.


Watching the NBA Finals is similar to waiting for paint to dry

Today SportsCenter is going "Coast to "Coast" with some highlights from the a studio in the east coast, some in the west. Fucking amazing.

Who ever thought one channel could broadcast in multiple cities in 2009? These guys are really proud of themselves, for real.

Now we are exposed to the "FanFeast" which serves what purpose Im not sure, but I know it sucks, is gay and could be replaced by actual sports analysis. God...

12 hours of AS game highlights.
12 hours of Home Run Derby highlights.
Now I am forced (well not forced) I just changed the channel to Classic Wrestling, Shawn Michaels as a 20 year old with Marty Jannetti, the Midnight Rockers.
Michaels looks the same 23 years later, never touched a roid.
But I digress, now ESPN has that no talent Scott Van Pelt with his own show.
ENOUGH>
