They're a necessary evil.

Outside of actual sporting event broadcasts, they're essentially Talk Soup for sports.

In another word, worthless.

Right: They have a billion networks. ESPN1, ESPN 2, ESPN U, ESPN Classic, ESPN News, ESPN Deportes...I'm sure I'm missing some like ESPN Tom Brady or something. They do a great job of hyping games and marketing sports in general. They have a few really good analysts like Peter Gammons, Doug Gottlieb, Jay Bilas, Kirk Herbstreit, Ron Jaworski, Tim Legler, etc.

Wrong: They employ to many ex-jocks with not enough broadcasting experience. With that said, because ESPN has so much power to nap many NFL legends, the ex-jocks attract ratings because you want to know what they have to say.

The only thing they do right is show games.

What they do wrong is everything else. They cater to only Northeast teams, suck the dick of anyone that's remotely popular, and bottle entertainment and sell it as news.

They just need to stick to showing games and forget the stupid hyping they do. They won't, though.

Well, the east coast bias is true - they hype games in the midwest and pacific coast too. Have you ever watched Fox Sports edition of sportscenter? It is the worst piece of shit I have ever seen.

It's not because it's Northeast that it gets hyped more...they cover the teams that have the most fans it's about ratings. The Northeast has a giant population.
