Default ESPN is starting to drive me nuts

They air NFL Live/Primetime like 50 times a week. This isn't the NFL Network for god sake!!! Now they are interrupting one of my favorite shows "Around the Horn" to talk about yes....more football news. That's what SportsCenter is for. Seriously, this has to stop!!!

"starting to"...? haha. Ugh - ESPN is ridiculous.

The only ESPN program I watch is Sundays at 11:30 AM, that's for entertainment purposes while I have a bagel, or Monday Night countdown. They're such jokers.

For news related stuff, I just use the internet, ESPN is nothing more than sports entertainment programs with some news sprinkled in.

No love for ESPN? . . . It's not a TV network dedicated to inform gamblers. I know alot of it is repetitive but if you don't want to hear about he NFL what you want to see BOWLING? . . . Saturday Gameday and Sunday Countdown are of course the best shows, plus were all hyped up for the action on those days.

Well maybe they should take ESPN off the air. Then how would you feel?

They do over play some programs, but hey, its better then not having a all sports network.

Just watch something else when they are on their 43rd episode of the same program.

Getting a contract to air NFL games killed their impartiality

I would, but it would take weeks for me catch up on what's happening with General Hospital.

Don't get me wrong I still love the network, but do we really need to see highlights from Sunday games on Tuesday when they air yet another episode of NFL Primetime?

I got so much sports on my tv , it really doesn't matter. I got ESPN Fullcourt, ESPN Gameplan, NBA Fastbreak, MLB , NFL Network, and this other package with all these other random sports channels (comes with NFL Network). With all the movie channels and the internet and phone. Dam my cable bill is sickning. I would have ESPNU but fu*cking Comcast doesn't carry it, nor does it carry ESPN360.

they are annoying but i guess its better than actully being caught up on all the soaps because no sports are on!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 44th time that you've seen "primetime" still better than the soaps!
