    and someone needs to tell espn that rumors are not 'breaking news' - the ticker started as a good idea, getting scores, but now it's half fluff and i can get scores much quicker on phone or internet. did i really need to see what rumors on the melo trade were every 10 seconds? dreadful. other than live games and baseball tonight espn is horrible

    only good thing about espn is the insider info on the website (but only if you use someone else's log in info ;) )

    Love when people say insider is too much. It's something like 20 or 30 bucks a year. Not exactly a budget buster

  • Baseball is the Creme de le Creme of fantasy sports.

    only because we have the mighty M's as our home team and w/o fantasy we'd have no reason to root for a baseball team. Will the M's be the first team that doesn't have on starter finish the season with a batting average over .200?

    I'm probably late on this, but I just saw that nbc has a 24 hour sports vhannel kicking off Jan 1. Apparently VS is morphing into NBC Sports Network.

    Good shit...and even less reason to watch espn when they're not showing games.

    Vs was a comcast station and comcast was purchased by NBC. Just glad there's another sports option out there. Once games are over I can't change espn quickly enough

    that's my stance for every network. i can't watch pre games and post games or half times.

    even in game on espn is getting bad with that bar they started putting on the left side of the screen during NCAA football games.

    All the Longhorn Network BS really is what got me with ESPN. I'm an Aggie fan (hard to admit these days) and ESPN's coverage and bias towards UT is ridiculous. All their college football people are hard to listen to. Plus makes me mad that last year's NBA finals was made out more of the Heat losing it than the Mavs winning.

    I'll watch the NBC/Vs. network just for a hopefully different and more unbiased perspective.

    yeah man, I'm with you on the pre/post/half. I'm constantly flippping. I can't watch that crap either
