Negativity (Kayfabe)
Dan Patrick doesn't have one minority working on his show :usure:

So what?

He/she'd just be another cast member who kisses his behind

:laugh: @ grown men being called Danettes

I like him for the his "straight talk"

I tuned in, today, just to see what he said about the Saints/Falcons game

The Passage of Time
ESPN is the best period. They do it different. They have shows for all taste, not mundane run of the mill shyt. This thread is made damn near every six months. Those same columnist would jump ship for the right price. They study their ratings and guess what they are winning all age demographic.

Steel City
ESPN Camera Catches Rick Reilly Ordering Stu Scott To Credit His Twitter Feed

Okay, so Reilly reported that Roethlisberger had suffered a shoulder injury—something a Pittsburgh columnist reported more than a half hour before Reilly. Another writer from the same paper reported the Steelers QB was headed the hospital five minutes before ESPN. We're at a loss as to for what Reilly thinks he ought to be given credit, other than happening to have Roethlisberger's agent's number in his iPhone. But, then, as we learned earlier today ESPN is pretty well out of the journalism business.

First Take is still the most entertaining sports show on TV. nikkaz love to hate, they might not be the best, but you can't deny the entertainment

I don't understand the hate for First Take? It's not supposed to be your average sports journalism show with breakdown of plays and analysis. Its a debate show and its pretty much purely entertainment. I just think some of y'all are going too deep as far as first take goes and not realizing the type of show it is . I do agree on most of the points about ESPN tho .

Espn has become terrible... The tebow stuff was outrageous, really the only reason to turn to if there are live games on. If you want highlights then highlight express>>>, otherwise nba tv and nfl network>>>>>
