It's a loooong way down...

In case you didn't read that... Mario Lopez is pretty much hosting an Entertainment Tonight 'sports version' called 'ESPN Hollywood.' Holy shit, it's AC SLATER. What the hell... there are no words. No words.

And you failed to grasp the gravity of this move?? Ashamed I am!

Seriously though, I've sort of expected something like this to happen for awhile now, but I never thought they'd actually stoop to reporting on how Jay-Z's Preseason NFL parties are coming along. Seriously, this show had better choke and die... fast.

Eh, she's like an 8. She has a great body, but a busted up face. She looked better on "Playmakers" than "Cold Pizza"(speaking of a trainwreck, when is that show going to be put out of it's misery?)

Lopez is a closet homosexual, not that there's anything wrong with that.

WRONG

The breaking point was reached when Stephen A. Smith got a show.

I went all winter without watching ESPN, due to there being no hockey, and just started again this summer. Man, this station has gone in the shitter in the last year.

It's exactly what happened to MTV around 1993. They completely abandoned their bread and butter in favor of "entertainment programming".

And of course, they have no real competition in the market, so there's no chance of anyone else picking up the slack.

TV sucks.

ESPN has lost me, All I watch it for anymore is some of the WSOP stuff (and thatsd starting to get annoying with all the poler players taking themselves so seriously) and baseball tonight. The rest of the stuff is horrid.

I went back to watching the local cable sports channel for the nightly highlights. I don't watch NFL primetime anymore because I can get the stats online now and not be annoyed listening to Berman's tired schtick. The rest of it is garbage. I don't understand why another station can't come out and get back to real sports reporting and not the crap that ESPN has become.
