I bet 90% of the people who has posted negatively about ESPN on bf.net watch ESPN and read espn.com all the time. So whatever ESPN is doing is working because you're all still watching. I'm in that 90% too. Where else am I going to get my nightly sports fix? I'm flipping back and forth between SC and FSN Final Score, and I prefer. Frankly, the picture is crisper on ESPN and the commentary, though often devoid of intelligence, is more interesting. And, yes, I do read ESPN.com. I hate that I have to pay for their good content, but they do have some interesting stuff. Sportscenter is not even close to their worst show. Here are some of the reasons I have animosity towards ESPN: -First Take in the AM is hard to watch. They pretend to be a Today show for the sports world. -Why is Skip Bayless still on the payroll? -Disney ruined the NBA on TV. I miss the days when the league wasn't on ESPN. It seemed like a bigger deal back then. -MNF has become a joke. They don't need a celebrity guest, or 2 sideline reporters. Watch a game on NBC or CBS. No frills, just the game. It is so much enjoyable to watch. -Around the Horn. Why does Reali get to decide who makes the best points? -Naturally, they hype what they show on their networks. Lots of emphasis on the NBA and the women's tournament. You hear very, very little about the NCAA Women's Tournament outside of ESPN. Literally no NHL analysis. On the other hand, PTI is a wonderful show and I really enjoy watching SC on Sunday nights during the NFL season. Berman is annoying, but ESPN does a great job with NFL highlights.
