Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted July 9, 2004 I think I just saw one of the most stupid Sportscenter segments ever. They were trying to bash the NFL for fining Joe Horn because they liscense NFL Street. If someone can see some connection between a video game and what goes on on the field please fill me in.

the max 0 Report post Posted July 9, 2004 Correction: Slow newsweek. They've been doing the videogame thing all week, including a 10 minute thing on videogames and NASCAR last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted July 9, 2004 I guess. It was kind of funny because the NFL sent a statement that basically owned their argument easily by pointing out that NFL games aren't played on the streets either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 10, 2004 The only thing I agreed was that NFL Street glorifies Showboating. But so does ESPN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2004 What I think is even funnier is this is at least the second time they've had the segments on Video Games and Sports. At least I think it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted July 10, 2004 maybe they are just recycling it. I'm shocked SC hasn't started showing POKER highlights yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2004 Considering ESPN licenses its own line of Sports games, I can't help but think there's a conflict of interest somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2004 I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't have ESPN News and I'm pretty sure it's not available on basic cable anywhere as of yet. The anchors suck there too but at least it's just straight forward scores and highlights. I find absolutely no reason to ever watch SportsCenter anymore.
