Fox Sports 1

The new sports network that's trying to challenge ESPN is launching today. Anyone checking it out?

[Cousin Sal]

Yes, if I can watch sports highlights without hearing from Skip Bayless, Screaming A. Smith, or any other ESPN knucklehead, I'll watch. This network is going against a giant and success won't happen overnight, but I do think there is room for them.

Perhaps Hannity will be on this network... I hear he will be having a lot more free time on his hands in the near future.

[Godot]

I'm still disappointed they did away with Speed

Why?

[LOOGY]

I'm going to give them a chance. Mostly in spite of ESPN. I hate them and everything they stand for.

[Clyde]

I don't get the hate for ESPN. They provide us with a lot of content that we all watch. Sure, SC is not what it used to be which is why I don't check it out religiously but they give us great games to watch.

Espn is all about Boston and New York, then everything else.

MLB Network is becoming the same.

 

I hope the new Fox stays away from being like that.

 

I will give it a chance.

I have no problem with their live games, which I still will watch. But their original programming is so putrid.

ESPN is about eyeballs. New York and Boston? Weren't we all complaining about all of the coverage coming out of Denver 2 seasons ago? They go where the stories are that will get the viewers to watch.

You mean like "30 for 30?"

[Getslow]

I don't get the hate for ESPN.

 

They conspired with the president of the University of Pittsburgh and the ACC to deliberately destroy the best college basketball conference ever assembled.

 

That's one.

I'm still disappointed they did away with Speed

 

It looks like you're still OK on that front. When do they start with programming that isn't racing?

Agreed.

The only thing I watch on ESPN is live sporting events. SC is nowhere hear what it used to be. It used to be fun to turn on SC and watch the highlights.
