Re: How do you feel about the programming on ESPN?
oops. typo.
any discussion show where people just yell at each other for 20 minutes is crap. kind of like those stupid foxnews shows. i prefer more of a mcneil lehrer approach. i watch mike and the mad dog fairly regularly, they are very good IMO. theyre pretty old school and should catch up on what people have been studying in terms of baseball statstics but they are not in the joe morgan school of thought at all.

[/ QUOTE ] As Larry King once said about PTI, "This is the best show on television". Kornheisher and Wilbon are one of the best combos of sports personalities. Just for all the quirks and stuff they call each other out on. Them arguing IS the show. It what makes it so fun to watch to see them try to crack on each other. "Yanks and da soxs!" , "Tom Brady is as good as Montana" "My boy, Donnavan F. Mcnabb". You got a 50+ NY'er jewish man and a old school Midwestern chicago black man yelling at each other with heads on sticks, good cop/bad cop, and they get about everyone in the sports business to come on the show. Still one of my favorite weekly tivo recordings.

Sportscenter had a 5-minute piece on the Burger King guy, and his sports ability. [/ QUOTE ] I could not stop laughing at this on Sunday. The King's ex-girlfriend, the special rules for special players line. That was a pretty funny concept. Normally I just tune out the Mayne event. Might just be that everyweek we watch games and discuss how the King should be the #1 fantasy pick next year because he scores every week. Take it to the HOUSE KING!

Re: How do you feel about the programming on ESPN?
You touched on some of the flaws of sportcenter, but ill go a bit deeper. They are trying to make sport center just like local news. The local news are 5 minutes actual news, 5 minutes of commercials and 20 minutes some BS story about some kid that has a disease that is 1 in a million and about how hard he is fighting to make it, yet they rarely if ever put an address to donate money or something. So their story accomplishes nothing except makes you say, "man good thing I dont have rectal cancer." Thats the way sportscenter is going. Out of an hour usually 20 minutes is actual news. 30 go to some sad story of the day of some kid who used to play sports that now has some 1 in a million disease and no number to donate or nothing so they accomplish nothing, the last 10 minutes go to commercials.
Also Max Rules, Realli Blows and its not even close, but ATH is still watchable. I still dont understand why ESPN doesnt just put Max as the host again, he is on their payroll, I mean he has a radio show with ESPN. Also PTI rules all, its keeping the network watchable. Stump the Schawb was decent sports trivia is always fun. Itd do anything which was a fear factor knockoff that was kind of cool, a bull almost killed a guy on the first episode. That show was watchable. Also Rome is Burning is watchable as well. Everything else has been terrible.
