I hate them. You hate them. We all hate them. Let's talk about what we'd change.

For one I'd get rid of shows like Around the Horn and the show with the dude and his dad.

Second I'd get rid of the morons like Skip and Stephen A.

Third I'd kill Broussard.

I'll continue to add inputs but what y'all got?

put more sports on, not more of the same sports. I could do without a softball on ESPN for the rest of it's existence.

Sell it to Bain Capital for them to break it up and dissolve it.

Less talk about Tebow, Penn State, and Bounty scandal That just wiped out 3/4 of television

all the changes to make it a better sports channel would lead to a big loss of $$$ so its difficult

I wouldn't know what to change because I don't watch it.

Complete personnel overhaul. Berman first out the door. Skip not far behind.

Less biased coverage. If you're going to cover sports news just report it without all the other annoying bullshite.

This should apply to message boards as well. I used to be on board but recently I find it extremely pointless. Top 5 lists, top 10 lists, who/what's your favorite __________ ? Best _______ ever?

Just extremely stupid.

Bam. There's your fricking answer. Those counts reek dude. Hell, Chris Broussard is currently getting ripped for his failure to cite sources in reference to NBA deals. Hardly any real journalism.
