    As I sat in the local hofbrau tonight watching Sportscenter, still angry with my team's performance today, I came up with another complaint. Why does Sportscenter mix up their highlights? For me, it's really annoying that they mix in tennis highlights right in between two football game highlights. My time is valuable to me, and I don't want to waste it watching tennis or baseball crap. What is the harm in them just showing all the NFL highlights consecutively? I don't know a single NFL fan who watches tennis. Does anyone else hate this as much as I do? I think I'll go break something now.

    If they break it up, you have to watch longer. Maybe, just maybe, you'll get interested in those other sports and have more reasons to watch Sportscenter.

    Short of Ali Landry playing tennis in a Dorito bikini, I don't think I'll ever give a diddlypoo about tennis highlights.

    DirecTv viewers dont get thier NFL highlights from ESPN, they go right to the source, NFL Network....dear god, I watched all day today....they have a show thats 90 minutes long dedicated to the sights and sounds of the games and they use the radio broadcasts over it, so no annoying Stu Scott BOOOOOYAAAAS!!!!.....then they have a show called "Coach Speak" and its all the head coach press conferences, back to back...it was so sweet...I know what Im doing on Mondays for the next 3 months...

    Sure, but wouldn't it make every fan of every sport happy if they broke it up into segments? For example, have football on first, then baseball, then tennis, etc, etc. Makes sense to me.

    Yes, I know how old she is...but objectively speaking she is a beautiful woman.

    Tennis is a fun game to watch if you know what to look for. In fact, most sports are fun to watch if you know what to look for.
