ESPiN is a network full of Journalism geeks who fawned all over the athletes they WISHED they could be.

A couple good folks up there but most are lame and worthy. They get former athletes who add very little to the discussion unless they talking about their former team. A bunch of safe corporate puppets. (Dudes shaving faces is just weird cameras or no cameras)

I watch it strictly for live games and docus (30 for 30) at this point. How they can live with firing all those folks to build a new set is just

I'm really giving this FOXsports thing a chance, hopefully they can get some rights to show live (interesting) sports

I'm not sure how necessary this was. Regardless of these new networks popping up, SportCenter has no competition, and this new set seems to be solely used for SportsCenter. What they need to keep an eye on is Fox Football Daily. That's the best thing FS1 has going for themselves right now.

I guess to some unemployed jock sniffers this is cool....I will continue to skip ESPN except for non-title nine 30 for 30s and live sports.

 

[concise]

ooh, shiny stuff

 

[dem bath salts]

Do I really need all that to see highlights

I guess Im getting old, because this worked just fine for me as a kid
