Still Complaining About ESPN...

Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...

Since this is the complain about ESPN thread, has anyone checked out the Olympic Network, published by NBC?

It took the place of an odd NBC channel call NBC Universal- which, at one time, did show Olympic sports at one time or another. Then it showed stuff.

Now it's back to Olympic Sports- I recently saw some water polo, and right now, the Swimming World Championships from Hungary are on in the evening.

It's nice to see a sports channel show sports instead of cards and auctions or more talking heads.

ESPN de Ocho is a thing. A real thing. But only for today, showing the lesser-televised things.

Where as the Olympic channel is showing the IIAF World Championships from London. Yea.

Just like they showed the swimming world championships before.

The more time goes on, the less ESPN I watch.

(Although, it does appear that the 6PM Sports Center did go back to Sports Center and not the SC6 Entertainment Tonight)

Since there's no IAAF WC thread- heartbreaking ending to Usain Bolt's career- he hurt himself in the last leg of the 4x100 relay, which is his last race. What a great champion.

How about the 1-2 finish for the US Women in the Steeplechase? That race was nuts.
 
Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...

many weeks now since mookie last viewed the worldwide leader.....

I only ever see it at bars and barbershops these days. When I do get a glimpse of it, I'm reminded time and again that I'm not missing anything.

Pretty much. Would rather watch ESPN at a bar than a fishing show on FSN.
 
Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...

Now, then. Is that for television rights in India? If so, that's about 1.5 billion potential people to watch. That may or may not be justifiable.

World wide - big bucks are for India, but it's not chump change for the rest of the world - even the US where I am a faithful watcher and fan of the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
