OT: When did ESPN and MTV merge?

[Honolulu Blue]

This has probably been discussed in some other thread, but I wanted to comment on it. This year ESPN has been using music and psuedo-videos to promote some of their programming - like the NBA playoffs, the women's college basketball championships, the X Games, and even the World Series of Poker. I haven't shelled out any money yet, but I've caught myself humming these random songs at random times.

Curse the 80-headed hydra that is Disney!

ESPN can go suck a giant donkey dick. The only time I turn it on is when theres a Baseball game on that i'm interested in, otherwise the prgramming is a big pile of sick, green, horse crap.

I have watched the "old school" sportscenter the last two nights. The first time in watching sportscenter in months. Unfortunately they need to include Stuart Scott in everything, including "Old School" sportscenter and will be co-hosting it with someone I did not recognize tonight. Just when I thought I could go a whole week of watching Sportscenter and not having to watch Stuart Scott..........

What is this....Sportscenter thing.....you talk about?

But yeah, like Suicane I will watchfor an actual sporting event, maybe PTI, otherwise I turn on ESPNews for any updates on scores and the likes....

I don't know if anybody else noticed, but the digital cable descrption (when you click the info button) of SprotsCenter has changed. it is no longer called a news show.

You know.. i like the ultimate highlight.. but i don't like them having musical acts and video's on during sportscenter.. thats just lame
