It's much more X's and O's which I like. Plus they replay the games during the week with the plays edited together so it only takes an hour and a half to watch them. It's great.

Well, we're looking itno getting DirectTV, which I think offers it, I'm not sure. One of the things I miss about ESPN is that te run all the old NFL Films Specials during the football season. It's awesome to watch all of those highligths form the 50's, 60's and 70's. I was born in 1975, so it's really cool for me to see some of those games that I was just a little kid, or too young to remember or care about.
I just hate the way sports fans have become in America. Shows like Best Damn Sports Show and those in your face shows on ESPN with commentators and analyst who have never played the game.
Fox, CBS and NBC have followed suit, especially with interviews with the coaches heading into the lockeroom at half time and on their way back out to the field after half time. Those interviews are stupid and ridiculous. Most coaches are pretty nice about it, but you can tell not a single one enjoys them.
