I know, another ESPN hate thread.. Don't like it, don't watch it, blah, blah, blah..

But seriously on Monday morning, people waking up, turning on ESPN and their flagship program, to see some highlights from this weekend, some USA winning the women's world cup but no, both ESPN and ESPN 2 are showing tennis. That is just awful..

Its Wimbledon - not just any tennis. Plus some of the ladies are hot - especially Sharapova.

It's not just that.. it's that they aren't even playing their flagship show on a Monday morning after a huge weekend in sports. I'm sure many other people turned on ESPN this morning in disappointment also.


I also understand it's Wimbledon, so put it on ESPN or ESPN 2 but not both.

This. Highlights are better online anyways.

The 4 letter is no your local nightly news with a little sports mixed in

Wimbledon happens once a year so calm down man. Also they were probably showing highlights on espn news.

Yes, they should not show live sports so they can do coverage of an event that is now over and people cared about for a total of 2 hours over the last 4 years.

Why do you need coverage from espn? Fox aired the tournament

Edit: just checked it out, fs1 is running women's wc stuff so you're good right?

Wimbledon over women's soccer? Certainly.

Not close either.
