    Re: The "Complain About ESPN" Thread

    Back then I watched Sportscenter 5-6 times a day, while I was in college. My roommates would scream at me "YOU JUST WATCHED THIS AN HOUR AGO!! IT'S NOON!! NOTHING CHANGED IN THE LAST HOUR!!" I would tell them that when you watch the exact same SC a second time, you pick up something you missed the first time. A roommate watched an 11 AM Sportscenter and then the noon one. He realized what I was talking about, but he still gave me **** about it.

          Let's see. There were two episodes between 11 AM - 1 PM. There was a couple episodes at dinner time. There was always one around 11 PM, and if I was still up, I'd watch the one at 2 or 2:30 AM, too. It wasn't overly difficult. There was plenty of time in the evenings.

              I barely even watch MNF anymore unless the Packers are playing, they've overhyped/ruined the game so much.

              Did anyone read Those Guys Have All The Fun? ESPN was going to get SNF and MNF after getting into a bidding war with CBS over SNF. Then at the last minute NBC comes in out of nowhere and snatches it up, possibly a payback for ESPN completing a sneaky deal for the World Cup rights. Anyway, I think it's great how SNF has become the new MNF. MNF has some terrible matchups, and SNF always has a good one, even in non-flex weeks.

                Personally, ESPN the Flagship and the other channels are all too much hype for me. I would rather just get the infomation and not have it repeated 10 minutes later when its a Huge STORRYYY!!!!1!! I get it, Tom Brady burped, farted and then threw a touchdown. Next news story.


                Personally, I think ESPN would be wise and go with what we've all been craving ever sense Dodgeball came out. ESPN 8, the OCHO. A whole branch of the Network decated to smaller sports, Minor Leagues and the Mid Majors. Basically if its covered on the Flagship, the OCHO doesn't hype it. They're off talking about Arena League Football, the AHL, and taking about college sports from the schools that are not in the BCS. I bet that network could really be good if they do it right, something that's not synergistic with ESPN, and they would really groom some great on air talent that way.

                    Surprised they haven't brought up the Simmonds thing to paint hockey fans as racist. They just love to cover the McSorely and Chris Simon incidents with gusto to show the game is barbaric and this would be up their alley.

                    And the Rugby World Cup should be covered too. Even if they just mentioned to US games. Hence, another reason that I wish I could get TSN, The Score and Rogers.
