Did for sports what MTV did to music. Turned it into a bunch of commercialized GARBAGE. ESPN is very good at creating the illusion that sports are somehow important or meaningful thereby creating a large viewership of brainless drones. Shows like "Sports Center" are done in a format of a news show which accomplishes this end. Then there are sports trivia
game shows. All of this mind-rot meshed together creates the worst kind of consumerist sports
freak. Sports are stupid anyway...even if it was just a purist sports channel without all the bullshit hype building
fluff, would anyone watch it anyway? Stop watching bullshit ESPN
game shows, get off your ass, and go PLAY a sport. Or better yet, pickup a
book. Its kind of
hard to go from watching ESPN to reading books but you can get there. Take it slowly...
