Guest Moneyball Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 within the last 2 years SC has gone down hill. i especially hate the 3 hour breakdowns on Barry, Kobe, and football. cris berman and his crappy adding nicknames to players. stuart scott looks like those crooks that come to your house to sell you life insurance.

Maxx Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Those stupid inspiration stories they sometimes do. I'd rather them cover more sports than do those stories about some kid who got hazed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancin'_Homer Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 It's right that this topic was posted under "Entertainment." Therein lies the problem. SportsCenter tries to be entertainment when it should just focus on scores, news, etc. In-depth interviews / close-ups...who cares? And what the hell is with that "Death of a Salesman" mini-series? And why, just when I started to care what happened to that sap, is it gone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I hate those long stupid commercials about how they found the "future" of lawn mowing i know, if you're gonna make segments, at least relate it to sports and make it funny - not some kid that mows lawn for baseball fields, it's so corny i do like the little segments like budweiser hot seat and the sportscenter final exam and of course the top 10 plays. by the way, what ever happened to the kid that won "dream job" i haven't seen him on there once. mike something...

Guest Moneyball Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 i think there is a period of 6 months for an anchor in any network to start. i heard that is why brian andrews hasn't been seen in months on 7 news because he is now with cbs 4.

nc marlin Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I don't have that many complaints. Its certainly not as good as the Big Show was in the golden years but it gets the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I hate no Box Score I hate absolutely no coverage of lesser known games and if they are, they either do it in a joke manner or a cheap 10 sec shot of one HR. THey have ruined it. I do not turn into SC for entertainment damnit, I tune in to see the games, I do not get access to without having to read The Sports Section. It needs an overhaul.

Guest Moneyball Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 i'm watching a 10+ minute breakdown on the lakers on SC. WHO GIVES A f***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE ON THE EAST COAST!!!!!!!!!!!! they should do a telecast for the west coast. I hope FSN comes up with a version of SC not FOX SPORTS ONE what a crappy title.

miami15 Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 f*** the Budweiser hot seat!!!!!!! Yeah, I hate stuff like that. Sportscenter is becoming so commercialized. And Dan Patrick and Stuart Scott are both awful. I think DP has the job just because he is a big name guy because he is so boring and bad. SS thinks hes so cool but he's a loser. But stuff like the Hot Seat and other things just plain suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhxPhin Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 Is Linda Cohn an option? I really don't watch it that much anymore .. i use to watch it religiously .. often times in a repetative nature I wish plays of the week were plays of the week again .. this started to go down hill when they'd have guest announcers and guest bands to set the highlights to I think my main gripe is that they are trying very hard to be entertaining and captavating Sports in and of itself is entertaining and captavating ... sports has drama, comedy, excitement and all the other fun things that toy at human emotions Sports will have nicknames, plays that everyone will laugh at, dramatic comebacks and serious moments of injury, death, overcoming the odds, etc Sportscenter should just let these things play out naturally .. treat it like the news of sports Give us the pertinant highlights of all games, give us boxscores, sumarize who's hot and not, let the players personalities show through, embrace nicknames but please avoid schtick Schtick can work short term, but eventually it grows old ... i don't need a smart ass remark after every highlight When someone messes up, give it to them, bust on them and make good natured fun (as their teamates would) .. if they do something very good congratulate them The athletes are the stars of sportscenter .. the best anchors let that shine through Unfortunately it seems like in an attempt to stay modern and current they create hot seats and quizzes to showcase athletes, instead of letting the truly captiving athletes speak in their sport It's become very dull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye Posted May 17, 2004 Share Posted May 17, 2004 I like those SportsCenter commercials about the lawnmower. They're really well directed... Eh, I don't mind Berman (especially during NFL season) and like Stewart Scott. I just think the show's stale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
