The world-wide leader in sports is always there for me when I need it, and SportsCenter is definitely one of my favorite programs on the tele. Would life be drastically different without ESPN?
I don't watch ESPN that often, they rarely show anything that has to do with basketball. I could care less about football/baseball. I either turn on NBATV or watch the game highlights on NBA.com.
My only complaint(s) is that the shows repeat too much: Sportscenter, GameTime, etc... You can tell they re-run segments all day. Showing a different variety of highlights would be nice too... it's the same highlights on every damn show, all day long.
The only time I watch ESPNews is every morning to watch the highlights of the NBA, and Wed and Fri nights to watch the games.

ESPN is godly.Without ESPN the only B-Ball I would ever get to see is Fridays on TNT, and that's it... On top of that I am a college Fan, and I wouldn't get to see those. Also I find most of there programming highly entertaining. :dribble: All :worthy: teh mighty ESPN!

<span style="font-family:Century Gothic">I think I would still be alive, but I wouldn't be interested in sports. ESPN really caught my attention with SportsCenter's "Top 10 Plays" and all. Blah blah blah...</span>
My life would definitely be less informed when it came to sports. That is what I am watch when I am bored and there is nothing on TV. And that is where I go to watch clips of news or games of that night. I dont know what I would do without it....
It doesn't matter if ESPN exists or not. As I understand, before ESPN, ABC was the world leader in sports (there's an obvious connection there, I know). If ESPN didn't exist, something else would take up for it. As long as there is demand, a channel will continue to provide for that demand.
I would be in the same place I am now. Like Tony, I don't watch ESPN a whole lot, I used to when I was in a dorm. But at home, I tend to watch other programs, if I want news on basketball or sports, I'll find them online. Only time I catch ESPN is if there's a Mavs game or a certain college game I want to see.
