    Lol no. SportsCenter at 6 with Michael and Jemele.

    Its Sportscenter without all the useless **** like scores and highlights, and comes with all the cool **** everyone loved like celebrity interviews and race baiting. Woke as hell.

    ESPN went down hill to me when they tried to start getting too Hollywood and cute with the highlights and shows.

    Haven't watch Sportscenter in years.. I'll watch some breaking news on there from time to time, but I just can't watch that garbage anymore.

    When I had NFL Network I stopped watching ESPN, now that NFL Network turned to trash too I went back to ESPN.

    Both suck about the same in regards to NFL coverage.

    Whether it's sports news, political news or pawn shop antics, there is literally no reason whatsoever for there to be a 24/7 content outlet any more.

    The blatant East coast bias made it unwatchable. The old CNN sports with Nick Charles and Fred Hickman was far superior IMO.

    Not sure what you mean by east coast bias. They cover everything that is LA no matter how bad some of those teams are. I know NY, Chicago and Boston get their coverage too.

    Then the just fan favorite teams like Dallas.

    I didn't recognize either names, but looking them up, nick Charles wasn't with ESPN, so this would be more a reference to all sports coverage (although I've never really considered CNN a sports coverage station).

    Fred Hickman was there from 04-08. I'd say he was onboard at the beginning of the downfall. I can't pinpoint an exact date because it's been gradual, but I think it started in the late 90's early 2000's. I reached unwatchable levels somewhere around 2010 to me.
