Anatomy of a block featuring Lebron vs Splitter. Ugh.

I keep thinking you're a bot, it's killing me

Ughhhhh. Saw ESPN floating that around on YouTube this morning. Just about made my head explode. Anxiously awaiting their next installment: Anatomy of Neat Garbage Time Jump Shot.

Stuart Scott is THE. WORST.

Maybe back in the day, his dumb catchphrases (as cool as the other side of the pillow) was funny. But now, just like Dicky V, it's really really irritating. He has like 10 catchphrases for each segment he does. So freaking annoying.

Last night after the game, the NBA crew was hilariously dumb. It's like they don't know what they're talking about.

Magic: "The Spurs role players are young guys. But the Heat role players are also young guys. But the Spurs role players are much younger than the Heat role players." WTF?

Re: ESPN is now dead to me!

ESPN has been dead to me since they stopped caring about the NHL

This is the best quote in this thread. They don't even acknowledge the NHL which makes them useless for me. But I still love PTI and the Sports Reporters.

Re: ESPN is now dead to me!

Only reason I go on ESPN is to watch a game. Haven't watched sportscenter, Cold Pizza or whatever the hell it is called today, Around the Horn, PTI. Don't miss any of it. Pretty easy to find scores and highlights on the internet. I don't need a network to tell me what happened. I get the 4 pro sports networks, but MLB is the only one I really watch.

I still enjoy Around the Horn, but PTI gets old real fast. I usually hit sites like Rotoworld for quick sports news.

Only thing espn is good for is radio, the local pittsburgh guys and the SVP/Rusillo show are pretty good.

The Tv part of them is terrible and just unbearable to watch. Been sayin that Stuart Scott is the worst for years now. Those wack *** catch phrases died long ago and thats all he had goin for him

[GritSnSpeed]

PTI is a daily ritual. And the Sports Reporters on Sunday mornings. Other than that all they have is 30 for 30. That documentary series is awesome.

I'm not sure I ever remember a time where I found Scott funny, even when he came in fresh with Kenny Mayne and company.

Re: ESPN is now dead to me!

I used to watch/listen to Mike and Mike religiously years and years ago. I tried watching it again not too long ago, and this is right smack in the middle of NBA and NHL playoffs, MLB season, NFL draft stuff, and I had to change the channel. That was the one thing they had goin for awhile with me, but then it seemed like one of them was always on vacation or something and it became turrible.

Yeah, only ESPN. Stanley Cup Game 1 going in to 3 overtimes. After the game is finally over, I change it to ESPN hoping they have something like for the NBA Finals where they have interviews and reactions to the game, and I turn.. nothing. Not even a blip on the screen that the game was over. No "BREAKING NEWS" on the ticker/timeline. 15 minutes later, after changing it to NBC sports, I change it back and they finally have it on their screen.

Yet they were talking about the NBA Finals and the US Open. Nice ESPN.

And I used to like PTI, but I feel that Wilbon and Kornheiser have been brainwashed the past few years after speaking the truth when the show first aired. Now all they do is praise Lebron/Heat, or the bigger market teams. It's not funny anymore, and actually I get upset at the homerism they display when talking about specific events.

Which ESPN only funds. It's these documentary directors who make it what it is.

Re: ESPN is now dead to me!

I must admit I am enjoying ESPN's handling of the US Open so far. Although I have no idea why Chris Berman is doing the afternoon instead of someone like Scott Van Pelt.

I used to love Mike and Mike. It was on late night for me (started at 3am) and I always loved having something live about sports that early. But they just got ESPN-ified. I don't know how else to explain it. Haven't watched it in months.
