Yeah, the ones involving hot chicks

ESPN and MLB both piss me off with the auto play videos, though when I was a manager in a formal office setting it was a clear indicator of who was slacking off...

ESPN just sucks as a whole.

I won't elaborate because I don't have the strength, but yeah...I stopped tuning into them about 2 years ago.

Yeah, they've gone the same path as MTV, in my book. Very sleek and we're-cooler-than-you, but with little of substance.

I liked it much better when they had a lot of rugby or the old NFL films. Just too much noise nowadays.

(Gawd, I sound old.)
