    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (SBoyd415 @ Jul 24 2007, 05:15 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>ESPNNEWS is almost the same thing with less of the annoying catchphrases. One person I can't stand on SportsCenter is Linda Cohn. I just find her voice to be annoying and she tries too hard to be funny. A lot of the catchphrases they make for when a player hits a homerun now are just terrible...</div>Rachel Nichols is worse...I hate looking into her mouth; the way it moves is disgusting and her body language...

I watch espnews more than sportscenter, and half the time I dont see anything about that, only on teh day there are races. espn2 I think has its own show for that.</div>Nah, I'm talking about ESPNews. On an average day, you can expect to see 50% more NASCAR, tennis, and golf than on Sportscenter. It might be because I'm pretty unlikely to actually turn to that channel unless it's the middle of the day. There's always something better on at night.

It's like 40% commercials and 60% repeating the same stuff over and over again.

I also hate Ed Werder because he is obsessed with the Dallas Cowboys. Every time I hear them say, "And now for the latest from Cowboys camp, here is Ed Werder." I automatically change the channel. I would have more respect for him as a NFL reporter if he would cover more teams than just the Cowboys.The only thing that makes sportscenter worth watching during the summer, is if Scott Van Pelt is one of the anchors. That dude is hilarious, I crack up every time he says "Useful shot." on a golf highlight.

Thats generally how it goes, but sometimes thats not how it is, like Arrested Development was a great show, but because of it's timeslot and it being on FOX, the show was cancelled.

    Re: I'm done with Sportscenter

    Sportscenter would be a lot better if they would do one sport at a time, instead of doing a few baseball highlights, then skipping to basketball, then doing stories, then doing more baseball highlights...Just do one sport at a time, so that the viewers can tune into what they want to see without having to see all this other crap. That's one problem I've always had with Sportscenter.

    I know what you mean."Here we are with bonds, he has a .995 avg against so n so, with 23 home runs out of 24 at bats...and grounds out here."If he hits a home run, show it. Or a good hit. Otherwise, who cares.
