I'am so sick and tired of ESPN just showing Yankee and Red Sox games. I hate both of these teams. The Yankee's are in third place and are still on all the damn time. Why can't ESPN show some Tampa Bay games or Oakland games. Both these teams are doing it the right way they have both shocked everybody in baseball. Nobody thought Oakland would be 4 games out of first, and nobody thought The Rays would be in first going into the all star break. Show love for these underdog teams. I'm just sick of ESPN. This is why the post season has such low ratings. If ESPN would show more games with teams that are playoff bound people would be more interested in the playoffs. I'm calling it right now Yankee's and the Sox are both going to miss the playoffs this year.

    Being a Red Sox fan I have to agree even though living outside of Boston it gets very hard to see RS games. We either get to see the Washington Nationals or the O's on MSMN tv.

    I certainly won't turn the tube off if the Sox are on but ESPN does need to spread out the teams they choose to broadcast. That being said you can solve this problem by getting a satalite dish and therefore you can choose which teams you'd then like to watch.

    Lastly I find hard to believe that BOTH the Yankees and the Red Sox will not make the playoffs, well I hope it's the Yankees how bout that.

    When a Rays game starts to generate Revenue like a Sox or Yankees game then I would agree with you.

    It is simple economics. Sox and Yanks move the $$$.

    One of the reasons why the rivalry is so strong today.
