PPV and Universal Sports. Right now they're running the replay of Australia - USA

however, if you're North of the Border, TSN is covering it, free.

I was disappointed with the way NBC decided to approach it this year. Decent amount of games on VS in '07 if I remember correctly.
 
Re: The "Complain About ESPN" Thread

I thought it was going to be a good thing when they went to live SportsCenters. But it has made them worse. Few highlights, filler interviews. I just want highlights ****it! I guess they would say watch ESPNEWS. Not sure if The Final Score is on FSN anymore, that was show was good.

I do love JRIB, PTI, (if I watched baseball as much as I used to Baseball Tonight was fantastic), College Gameday, Outside the Lines, The Experts, and many 30 for 30 movies. They have one on Steve Bartman on Tuesday, that should be great.


Side note, I would watch more NHL Network...but I feel like it is the worst of the Four major sports networks...


ESPN is NFL Network 2. I am glad Minnesota has the KQ Morning show and the Power Trip Morning show.

Final Score was cancelled earlier this summer.

I'm loving the new LeBatard show. I always thought the best PTI combo was him and TK. I recently dumped the NHL Network even though I loved their highlight show that used the real game coverage/announcers for the highlights without someone talking over it. NHLN was the only channel in the extra sports package for $10 which I dropped in protest when my bill went up by that same amount. BBTN is great with Berthiaume, terrible with Ravech.

I did find something that ESPN is good for this weekend. Driving across Wisconsin on Saturday afternoon, listening to ESPN radio for constant college football updates/highlights on all of the games.
 
Re: The "Complain About ESPN" Thread

Honestly, since The Big Show went off the air I haven't watched Sportscenter at all. I take that back, when it's on the TVs in the restaurant on Fridays when we all go out for lunch I watch it. I haven't watched MNF since John Madden retired (had nothing to do with him, but it's just gone downhill since then).

I still think Baseball Tonight is good. College Gameday is the only show I make a point to watch.

I listen to Mike and Mike on the radio on the radio during the drive in because nothing better is on.

How bad does the radio suck where you are? Do the other stations feature Fran Drescher reading Black Eyed Peas lyrics? Or is it worse: Black Eyed Peas songs?

Might as well. I know I'm going to hear shrill screams of: Half-assed Morning Show, KQ, or Powertrip but none of those are even remotely entertaining. Half-assed might be but they only do a short sports segment.
 
Re: The "Complain About ESPN" Thread

I always liked the half-assed morning show back when I was in the Twin Cities. Then again, I was a teenager and therefore stupid.
