As far as I remember. I got the angriest at espn today, ever. No, it wasn't when they stuck with the already decided Florida St - UNC game. That was understandable. It was when they cut away from our game to celebrate excessively when the UConn women won their 91st in a row. Yes, that was a great accomplishment, but for crying out loud! Take it to the news!

My sentiments exactly Norm, I was truly angry at ESPN. I watch a lot of sport of sports on ESPN but they do get on my nerves from time to time.

I would rather have bamboo shoots rammed underneath my toe nails than watch a bunch of women grunt and make lay ups.

I already hate espn for being so damn political and now they pull this crap. A plague on both their houses. That is a Shakespeare quote by the way,fyi.

Women grunting? Interesting mental picture!

Yeah, when they put their game schedule up and talked about it for waaaaayyy too long I started burning. Hawkins made a three while we were gone so when they came back he had to make another one and shortly later he took an alley oop and dunked it.

ESPN makes a lot of very stupid decisions. A "breaking news" ticker at the bottom of the screen would've been sufficient enough for this story. I think our nation could do away with women's basketball and no one would ever notice.

Now don't go knocking women's basketball, Paul. We've had Lady Cats season tickets for several seasons and I thoroughly enjoy it.

The tickets are very reasonably priced, you can park free about a block away, makes for easy in, easy out. The level of play is quite good and exciting, not to mention some of the ladies are not at all hard to look at.

It is a very enjoyable couple of hours entertainment, at least for an old man like me.

Jarcat, good for you and any event with Kentucky on the uniform is well worth watching.

I enjoy all the ladies sports, basketball, softball and volleyball, not much for soccer. I watch all their games that are on live TV or WATCH ESPN.
