    anyone else wish that...

    espn would stop putting everything related to sports into a bracket or a top 100?

    who's now, best college football team between the years 1987-1994, top 1,000 sports tournaments hosted by stuart scott with special commentary by stuart scott, they just need to chill out

    dont get even get me started on how they have their heads so far up their butts as to expect people to pay them for the ability to see a projected 2008 nfl mock draft before the 07-08 preseason has even started or how they fired olberman for simply making a joke

    sorry guys, just had to vent for a moment

    I don't want to see a top anything with Stuart Scott on it. The "top" is not what I think of when his name comes up...

    I'm with ya Etothep. The only reason I turn on ESPN is if a game is actually on, at which point I mute the TV, and just watch.

    I'm hoping that eventually we'll be able to pick and choose our cable channels. I mean I really don't need "The Ocho". I have 6 ESPN products on my basic package! One is enough awful for anyone.

    nice find HGM! I don't even watch SportsCenter anymore...It's just not even worth my time, especially when I can come here, to these board, troll them relentlessly and get all the news I need (and before you ask, no, there's no sarcasm there!)

    ESPN seems to be turning into an MTV sort of network now. Not good, not good at all.

    Really, I think that the whole problem with ESPN is that they feel that they need to fill all sorts of time with constantly new content. It's a sports news network, primarily (or at least, that was the original intent). Just report the news, do some analysis, and show the replays, and rinse and repeat to fill time!

    Yes, I definitely getthat whole MTV vibe when I watch sh!t like this on espn.

    I guess thats what happens when there is a lack of any good competition in the market.
