Jimbo's Drinker Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 7, 2005 -> 02:27 PM) Could you elaborate, please? I will try since I am still confused. Yesterday's sports center had coverage of a mock press conference with Phillips playing the GM for the Red Sox. Half way thru, they cut to Stu Scott and he was like we are having technical difficulties. Does phillips want a job, or is this just inance ESPN crap??

The Critic Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 They're not doing a White Sox "mock press conference" because championship teams don't generally need as much "former GM fixer-upper wizardry". This is nothing more than airtime filler to keep their baseball people occupied. Pedro Gomez will be filing reports each week from up Barry Bonds' ass, but everyone else needs something to do.

GreatScott82 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Yea I saw that. I couldn't believe it. The Critic is right, ESPN needs something to do now that baseball is over. What a joke that was. What they can't wait to hire a GM for an official press conference that they need a mock press conference? ESPN= Boston Red Sox television. I'll stick to Comcast- its all the Chicago sports we can ever ask for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuskyCaucasian Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 That was a REALLY lame segment. It was just plain BAD to watch. ESPN is no longer the World Wide leader in sports. THey used to be, but have been falling for some time and that topped it off. Bring on Comcast Sportsnet!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Oh my God they are doing one for the Yankees to. f***ing retarded. I hate how they pretend it's real. Die ESPN. Just die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 You know what was funniest? The fact that they had some big Warning lable that the whole thing was fake.

whitesoxfan101 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 There is really no point in watching ESPN ever unless a game is on one of their family of network channels you wanna watch, or you need to find the score of a game (and even then, use Comcast Sportsnet). ESPN blows and we should all just learn to ignore their trash, because they are going to cater to the stupid and largest fanbases, and we are neither of those luckily. Just remember, all the media propaganda nonsense isn't going to take away our WORLD TITLE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Nov 7, 2005 -> 06:57 PM) :headshake This is just flat dumb. Dumb.Dumb.Dumb. I don't bash ESPN alot, because I respect what they do, alot. If you take ESPN for what it is, a network that provides sports fan up to the second news about the games we love, its a great channel. Sports IMO would be no where near the level of popularity that they are at now if ESPN was not around. ESPN needs to get back to there roots, show the highlights, and give there views. Thats it. It all went downhill once they left this Sportscenter set. They feel it's insufficient for them to just give us sports scores, since the scores are flashing on the walls of their cool new set.

greasywheels121 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 I think they'll end up doing all the teams. It's pretty easy to cringe at watching him do the teams I despise; it's going to be even worse when we have to see him f*** up his impression of KW.
