Guest Redhawk Report post Posted August 6, 2004 Terrell Owens: We go together like peanut butter and jelly. Like ham and cheese. Andrea Kramer: Cheese-STEAKS. You're in Philadelphia now, Terrell. Cheese-STEAKS. Terrell Owens: Uhh.....ham and cheesesteaks. SHUT UP! That was the corniest thing I've ever heard on Sportscenter, and the sad part is, they didn't have to use it! It was a taped interview, which means someone thought that was cute and left it in there! BTW, did anyone watch the Sportscenter Kid Rock and Alanis Morissette concerts? I was staying somewhere where I didn't have a TV at the time. Did they actually go through with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the max 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2004 I saw the Alanis one and the Roots(is that their name?) one and surprisingly...they weren't that bad. They explored the simularities between music and sport, and each performance had video clips of athletes, etc. (The Roots are apparently from Philadelphia, so most of their video centered on Philadelphia sports, like a highlight package). It really wasn't any different from what they do on New Years Eve with the recap of sports in the previous year with music and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2004 ESPN2's problem is that there's too much content for one channel but not enough for two. So we get fishing, putt-putt, and now math I guess. Oh yeah and Cold Pizza. (shudder) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted August 21, 2004 I don't see why ESPN doesn't do what Fox does. If you have an hour of nothing just throw some old boxing matches on or something.

I sure ESPN could find some X-Games filler somewhere.....to bad Fox Sports Net has the better show in 5,4,3,2,1 with Wee Man as the host and that Bluetooth show.

I do think its lost some of its luster the past few years, but I can't see ditching it as a televised event. Televise it, fine. Bury it on ESPN Classic or something. Every time I've put ESPN on in the last couple of weeks I've been greeted with a bunch of 12 year olds that I'll probably never see or hear of again playing baseball while Harold Reynolds, sounding like he'd rather poke his own eyes out plays the live action version of Scooter the baseball. It's fucking stupid. If I were to just go down to my local baseball field and sit and watch a bunch of kids I've never met, I'd be called a pedophile. Why is this any different? And, I know it's stupid for this to bother me, but why, for every at bat, must they give you an unbelievably useless fact about the player? His nick name or favorite school subject/TV/Movie/player/sandwhich topping. WHO CARES? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
