except they don't. It used to be every highlight of every game from the big 4...essentially they do this, but you have to make time for debate sessions and personalities to get their time, etc. so while some games get highlights, a lot of "less meaningful" games get a 2 second clip and a score.

First Take, for instance, was entertaining as hell during these last couple of Finals

you know I have no issue with you, so please don't take this the wrong way...you're a young/ISH, black male (from what I've gathered)First Take is tailor made for you. In some ways just like people target other demographics, nothing to see here...but ESPN actually does do it in some pretty slimy ways.

Yup. Right at the top of the hour right before the show ends. And it will never Be the Yanks or Red Sox in one of those. They show almost every Yanks game and right after the game is over, they run a 8-10 minute highlight of those chumps. Horrible.

Oh please

I happened to start watching that show during last year's Finals because Skip Bayless was one of the few in the national media championing my Spurs. And even then with the full knowledge that both Skip and SAS are doing schticks.

Tailor made for me? Come on, now. Way off base with that one

Well said...

And the fact that they only cater to the 'big' teams really pisses me off... I haven't seen an ounce of coverage on the Saints since training camp started
