ESPN (A bunch of Death-Spiraling maroons)

Might as well take a pill and get used to it. Secpn is going to do everything they can to make the top recruits feel like they belong at an SEC school. Then they will spend all day talking about the recruits that went to SEC schools from the previous cycle. There are a ton of things that secpn should be forced to eat a bag o dicks for but that HS kickoff weekend they had was by far and away the the most self aggrandizing, agenda pushing, SEC love fest I have ever witnessed on the mothership. I usually prefer to watch the tube on mute and listen to a Buckeye radio broadcast of the game but I really want to hear if our recruiting will get anywhere the attention that the SEC schools have. I wonder if SECPN's NATIONAL DIRECTOR OF RECRUITING will have time to make an appearance.

Just take a stroll around ESPN's campus in Bristol.

I don't think it was slanted at all. I thought everyone knew how broadly disliked Urban Meyer tends to be within the coaching fraternity. I think Nick Saban is similarly regarded.

People tend to hold grudges against those who have soundly kicked their asses and then not pretended to feel sorry about it.

They showed the longer interview during Gameday yesterday, and the two questions came up at the end of it. It wasn't bad, and they joked afterwards about people being jealous of Urban because he's good-looking and highly successful. The edited version they showed the other day, which was much briefer and started with the two questions I mentioned, came off as slanted but the longer version didn't.

Ha. Watching this High school game between and MD and FL team. Announcer spews out "We have a lot of Big Ten commits and ACC commits so we aren't just showing SEC commits like people think that we do." First HS game I've seen on ESPiN where the have mentioned players not going to SEC. Keep telling yourself that idiot.

Fucking clowns. They actually didn't have any SEC players in the CO vs CA game...so they added some CGI lightning and had the game called.

Watching the ESPNU BCS Countdown right now. They have spent 45 of the first 50 minutes of the show talking about SEC teams. You know that a good chunk of the major recruits in the country are watching this and being brainwashed that if you want to be talked about, go to SEC University.

Have they talked about how overrated Texas A&ms is? after their D got gashed by over 500 yards total and 300 rushing yards by Rice?

guessing not....but if that happened to Ohio State theyd be demanding they drop out of the top 25

Curious of others' opinions (since I only watch BTN for CFB).

ESPN research says that 38 percent of "College GameDay (Football)" viewers come from SEC states. It says that no more than 11 percent comes from the other regions (outside the SEC).

-Has ESPiN drove people away with its coverage/bias/trolling?
-Do people care less in the other regions?
-Is it too early on the West Coast (6-9 a.m.)?

ESPN will add a channel in 2014 called the SEC Network that will feature Southeastern Conference college sports. The 14 schools, including the University of Alabama and Texas A&M University, account for 38 percent of game-day viewers, while no other conference gets more than 11 percent, said Lee Fitting, who produces “College GameDay.”

“Our ratings research tells us there’s never too much SEC,” he said.

They're not even trying to deny it anymore is what makes it funny.

Maybe no one else is watching because it's 90% SEC garbage.

I'm all for equal rights and women in sports, but if it's abundantly clear that NO ONE ON EARTH enjoys listening to this fuck - why keep trotting her out on ESPN every weekend?
Especially for football! If you want to put her on for some meaningless basketball game go ahead because she did play basketball in college. There is no reason for her to be calling football games!
