ESPN sucks, so do thread closers

Chris Paul is "breakout athlete of the year", after having a good but not spectacular rookie season, ahead of Alexander Ovechkin who finished in the top 3 in the NHL in both goals and points during his rookie year and scored some of the most spectacular goals you will ever see. All righty then...

 

Chris Paul had a great year. Should have been an all-star. 16, 8, and 5 and over 2 steals a game (led the league in total steals), for a 6'0 rookie PG isn't just a "good" year.

[Guest]

He may have had a great year, but he didn't make nearly the impact that Ovechkin did in the NHL.

[Guest Princess Leena]

And Michelle Wie sucks. Her trying to compete with men is embarassing when she can't even win a women's event.

 

True.

 

But, let's not jump on her for it. It's not her fault.

That's right, they only rape black women.

Well, at least you haven't been accused of raping white women.

There were plenty of guys who had better seasons than Chris Paul did in the NBA. There were at most 4 guys who had better seasons than Alexander Ovechkin in the NHL: Jaromir Jagr, Joe Thornton, Mikka Kiprusoff, and Nicklas Lidstrom.

You're all forgetting that ESPN doesn't think hockey counts as a real sport.

Just wait for when Patrick hitches herself to the Jeff Gordon team next year. That will be a media machine right there.

 

You'd have to assume that ESPN is praying that Gordan leaves his hot belgian model/actress wife for Danica, so they can deem them "Jeffnica".

 

Shut up.

 

and I posted a thread about it last year, but I forgot about it. Starting tomorrow night on ESPN:

 

The World Series of DARTS!

[Guest Princess Leena]

Ugh, it's going to be awful if Danica joins Nascar...

 

It's already bad enough with IRL, which outside of the Indy 500, nobody gives a fuck about.

[Guest Princess Leena]

The World Series of DARTS!

 

I'd normally bitch, but this is their deadest time of year... with only baseball to show, and not even tennis for a couple weeks. Might as well put the filler on now.

I thought ESPN was already showng filler for the last couple of months.

Wait a minute, Hockey is a real sport? I know it's popular in canada and that's cool. So is Curling. But Americans could give 2 shits about it. And i like hockey.

anybody catch ATH today? how long has Woody had that bridge?

Dan the Bastard is an idiot. Did you see him on PTI today dressing down Wilbon for liking that Buck O'Neil was at that minor league All-Star Game, when he thought the old guy who had an at-bat last week was stupid? Unreal.

[CanadianGuitarist 0]

I've always liked Kornheiser, foremost. But I can't even watch Le Betard. He's like a high school kid appearing on TV.

[Mik 0]

LeBatard is my favorite fill in, though. Last year when they had the shows with Jason Whitlock and another awful host...it was hard to watch.

 

Bad: Bob Ryan and Lebatard

Really bad: Jackie McMullen and Norman Chad

Hell on earth: Jason Whitlock

 

Norman Chad even ruins my favorite guilty pleasure, poker on TV, with his inane obviously scripted jokes.

I agree with whoever mentioned the Schwab from ESPN Classic. That guy is sad. He gets all excited about answering a tough question like he just hit a walkout homerun to win the World Series. I want to hit him.

[A Happy Medium 0]

I do like when Stuart Scott cuts him off in the middle of one of his additional answers in the Leading Off segment. Schwab seems so unsatisfied.

 

Also...his throwbacks suck. How about a t-shirt?

[Robert 0]

Anybody know where Kornheiser is? He's been gone for like 20 days or something. I'd think that it would be for MNF or something like that. Jut have Stat Boy and Wlbon do the show. It was sad hearing Whitlock justify that hot dog eating is a "real" sport. The Schwab guy is just sad to see considering that I know guys like that. All they just do is study sports, and it's cool for a bit, but it gets annoying. It's nice that they are showing college football games that just aren't ND games. Over the past couple of days, I've gotten Colorado/Michigan, Nebraska/Oklahoma 71, and other games. Tomorrow is an hour long clipped versio of Georgia/Tennessee from 95, and Auburn/Alabama from 1983.

We all know damn well why he said that.

[Guest Felonies!]

I wish I saw the episode of PTI where Tony fired the Bastard midway through the show and brought Stat Boy in to do the rest.

I'm sure some of it is getting ready for MNF, but also he always takes a couple weeks of vacation this time of year (voluntary since 03!) so that's probably part of it.

[Guest Princess Leena]

I had been having some PTI withdrawals since I'm working nights.

 

Glad to see I'm not missing much.

 

Whitlock is the worst. A giant fat piece of racist shit that knows absolutely nothing.

I never heard about this. What happened?

[Guest]

These two again.

ESPN told to pull the plug on Mobile ESPN

 

Estimated that Disney will lose $135 million on the experiment.
