since the bowl show debacle that espn showed...the one that was after the bcs bowl show, yet mainly talked about the bcs bowls because 'that's what everyone cares about anyways', i haven't watched espn but a few times.

i've switched over to fox sports for their highlights show, which i'm loving. they show soccer, smaller schools, random stuff...nbcsports for hockey and cbsports for some basketball...and couldn't be happier!

i had always been an espn person...enjoyed their afternoon shows and of course sportscenter. after switching stations, i realized that espn is certainly below par for what i'm looking for in my sports. if i was a major school supporter or just cared about hot topic buttons, they would be for me, but i'm not...and they aren't.

also, i did switch back the other night for sportscenter during a commercial and it was over the top crap...some coach being hateful and angry about some team...cowboys, i think...but just produced/made up anger and hatred to drive differing opinions, i believe...

i want to thank espn for omitting the smaller schools that i care about and forcing me to go elsewhere...the best bit of marketing they've ever done!

give the other channels a chance, if you haven't!

ps...i'm really bored....it's finals day at school...i've got nothing better to do...can't drink...

Gagree. I have been impressed with the attention Fox gives to non P5 schools, and other sports. NBCS and the NHL Network for Hockey has been good. I do miss the old local sports networks, ie HSE, before Fox started taking control of the local sports affiliates. The production is the same, but overall, they actually give a crap about the teams and sports, unlike espn. ESPN has not updated themselves to pay attention to other things like Fox has. They love the Yankees, Red Soxs, Heat, Knicks, and the P5 teams.
