Of course, aside from your fav team playing and they're the only option to watch.

I used to watch it nonstop back in the late 90's / early mid 2000's.

Now, I can't even remember the last time I wanted to find a show to watch on there.

Havent watched it since last cfb season.

So I guess this upcoming wknd it'll be back on Saturdays only mostly.

But just for games, some cfb news. Other crap or other leagues can bite my arse.

I'll say this....I do like the college football gameday show in the morning.

But, I still don't even have the urge to pay close attention to it like I used to...

If there’s a college game on ESPN that I’m very interested in, yes. Otherwise there’s no reason.

Only college game day.

Most of the “news” they cover isn’t even on the field issues. It’s stupid shite that is more suitable to E! because “controversy” sells. I don’t give a shite about Twitter fueds or kneeling, or any of that.

Just tell me who’s playing, who won, and highlights.

I’m beginning to wonder if people are simply watching less sports than they did 15-20 years ago? I mean, I get why people don’t want to watch the shows on ESPN and their political overtones, but is it simply because people don’t want to invest their time into watching live sporting events like they did in the past?

+1. I only watch college football games on ESPN. Back in the day I used to really enjoy their programming. It's been said a million times, but they've become the MTV of sports.
