I don't mind them sticking to more national stories, they can't really compete with local sports coverage anyway. Everytime they do give a little token coverage to the Chiefs or Royals I find myself embarrassed by how little they know. That being said, they still have cover national sports stories with some actual substance.

It seems like they don't understand their audience. I don't care what clothes NBA players are wearing before the game, and the kind of people who do care probably aren't watching ESPN.

I imagine there have been many meetings at ESPN that ended with this same sentiment. How has that worked out for them?

Not true. Not all fans of teams live in that teams local area. I'm just saying that it would be nice to cover all teams, not just the few media darlings. The east coast bias is sickening and disgusting and turns a lot of people (myself included) off.

How many of you care what's going on with the Charlotte Bobcats or the Washington Wizards? What about the Arizona Cardinals, anyone dying to hear the latest?

I don't know anything about those teams. Maybe if they got some coverage I would.

1.) I don't live in KC

2.) The rest of the country has way way way more people than New York.

3.) Apparently people DO care because ESPNs ratings are going down the toilet

So what if those markets are bigger. It's a 24-hour sports network. They only generate enough content for about 2 hours of programming. Then they repackage it and talk it into the ground for the next 22 hours, then repeat.

There are 32 NFL teams, if each team had a half hour show once a week it wouldn't even take up a whole day of programming. Hell, if they just had a half hour show for each division, I might be interested in watching.

The problem is people turn to the internet for news. If there would have been one save our chiefs update i would have supported the shit out of them. But the fact is they only cover big stupid east coast shit. Its on 24 hours a day thats enough time to cover all the little stuff in the small media markets is it not? Shit it doesnt even have to be super interesting put some reporter wannabe college girls on them let them read the script.

Well, clearly their market analysts know best.

Right, because talking about the KC teams will surely spark a ratings bonanza.

No, but not looping the exact same SportsCenter for 7 hours a day might help.

Maybe not, but the fact of the matter is this, there is clearly a bias towards some teams. The Red Sox were one of the worst teams in baseball last year and they got more coverage throughout the season than the SF Giants, who you know won the World Series and all and two of the last three WS.

Hard to call it "competition" when they aren't going to have any major sports to broadcast. Hard to imagine what they'll put on there. Maybe old re-runs of the "Strongman Competitions"

The America's Cup. That used to be on all day long after the Sportscenters. Also pro-wrestling.
