Sportscenter is new

Recommended Posts

I'm guessing they redid the set to accomodate HDTV, and I think the blue and red looks better than whatever the hell they had before. I like replacing the TVs with just superimposed graphics. It took four minutes to open the show though

I'd watch to see how it is but I'd rather not hear about the fucking Lakers and blah blah blah Kobe blah blah blah.

Too bad they didn't get new anchors...

Yeah the problem is that Craig Kilborn was so good when he was Sportscenter, that ESPN had spent the following decade trying to get more guys to mimic him. The mid-nineties was good, but it is starting to get old now.

their HD broadcast of Sportscenter is a joke, by the way, for those of you who haven't seen it yet. The only thing in HD is the shots of the anchors talking, once they get to actual highlights the screen gets smaller (bars appear on the sides of the screen) and the picture isn't as nice...

I gave up on that show a little while back. The anchors have reached a whole new level of annoying.

 

Some dickhead's catchphrase is the Tony Montana "Say hello to my little friend." But it comes off as "say ello to ah-lil-fra!" It's loud and just an earpain to listen to.

 

another one was something like after a homerun the guy would say "Ladies and gentlemen put your hands together for Tenacious D." And I'l staring at the screen thinking what the fuck that had to do with anything.

 

And I have the urge to murder babies whenever Stuart Scott opens his mouth.

Don't know about you guys, but the only guy I could stand is Scott Van Pelt. He's pretty funny, most of the time. Everyone else sucks, or is annoying as hell. The Tony Montana thing is annoying as hell as well. Hitting a home run isn't showing anyone a friend. It doesn't make sense.
