Thoughts? I think it's pretty cool. Thought some of them should have gone differently. Not really happy that Kevin James and Jessica Beil are judging.
ESPN "Who's Now"
I think it's a crock of shit. I could care less "who's now." It a popularity contest. SHOW ME MORE HIGHLIGHTS!!!
SportSCenter nowadays is all advertising/Yankees/Tiger Woods/Bonds anyways.

Gimme a fucking break.
And the analysts they have . . . I don't want to hear a balding, 105 pound, 60 year old nerd like John Clayton tell me what an NFL team needs to do to get a W. Sean Salisbury? Dude rode the bench for 95% of his career and never had a decent game. Kruk was only good when he had a mullet. Steve Phillips never made the Mets into a winning team. Who picks these guys?
You'd think at least the anchors would be good, but no. Stuart Scott can't speak 4 words without dropping a "dog, yo, sick nasty son!!". He's down for the homies alright. (This coming from the guy who called Randy Moss' mooning "a dispicable act that shouldn't be shown on air because it's a disgrace"). Try toning the ghetto down a bit, considering you've prbly lived in an upscale gated community your whole life. Someone should slap the slang outta your mouth and straighten your crooked eye out. Go lay down on the cool side of the pillow. Everyone else uses waay too many catch phrases. Fred Flinstone, er, I mean, Chris Berman, has killed his "nickname" motif. It was funny at first . . .but c'mon, Winnie the Pujols? Jeeeeeeeeeeez. Stephen A Smith needs to be a little less angry. I think that guy must have been beaten as a little kid. He reminds me of that little "Thirst" character in the old Sprite commercials. Oh, and here's a clue for Rachel Nichols . . . BLINK!!!!!!!!!!
Whatever happened to them showing highlights? They cut out soooo fucking much and have too much filler. They show, at best, 2 plays from the whole game.
I don't care about Beckham. He's not even the best player in Europe. He hasn't even played ONE game in the US. Yet they talk about him for 5 minutes every day.
Same with Tiger. GET OFF HIS NUTS!
ESPN is like CNN. They take a small story and run with it until WE'RE blue in the face. Remember Anna Nicole Smith? CNN covered every aspect, interviewing her neighbors, every second of the trial, who she was talking to before her death, a pig that she passed on the way to her farm, EVERYONE and ANYTHING having to do with her was shown. I can't wait to hear about Vick for the next 6 months.

not a huge tiger fan myself, i like him and what he's done for the sport, but if anyone else wins this besides him, its a fucking joke. tiger IS the biggest athlete in the world hands down. what he is doing is Jordan type shit with the advertising and backs it up with the way he plays.

Keith Oberman should've never left. What a dumb ass career move. If they keep losing the good anchors and keeping people like Stuart Scott, me thinks it's management that is the problem.

Roger Federer is far more dominant in his sport than Tiger is in his, I'm not a big tennis fan (golf either for that matter) but as far as domination goes Woods isn't even in his league.
Anchors have become more important than the product, which was always sports. It's going to become like MTV. You can only see highlights on ESPNocho.
this whos now thing blows peyton manning or tom brady will win cuz everyones always on thier cocks
They must be running out of anchors because Mike Golic is co-hosting with Greenberg.
As cool as the other side of the pillow.
The Olbermann-Patrick team was the best. Ever.

My roommate and I bet on everything too.
Right now we've got a Big 12 v. SEC college bball challenge going on Xbox. We've already done an ACC v. Big !0 and a PAC 10 v. Big East. We pick one side, then rate our teams in order from best to last. 1 v. 1, 2 v. 2, etc. Then We split who gets home courts. Each game is $3, and then there are the extras, like dollar for 20 points from one player, dollar for 90 points from a team, 1 for 10 rebounds, etc.
We also have a Madden challenge, where we hit the random button 4 times and those are the 4 teams we have to play with, the 5th being our fantasy teams which we set up. Again rank teams in order, and again side bets like dollar for 100 yds rushing, 100 yds recieving, 2 INT's one player, 3 sacks one player, 300 passing, etc.
Then we also have an MLB challenge. We hit the random button, and whatever team we get we play with. Usually only a best of 5 seriers. Side bets out the woozass. You can only start a pitcher once in every 4 games. We figure there'll be a travel day rest and it's only a 5 game series.
And that's just Xbox.
