the ESPN networks for the B1G (after basketball season).

That was the most blatant SEC slanted broadcast I have ever seen and heard.

Was it me, or were most of the shots of the fans in the stadium focused on the Miss State fans and very few Illini fans?

Announcers seemed like big cheerleaders for Miss State.

Big time lobbying by them for the Miss State TD call to stand.

When Isiah Williams could not reel in Devito's pass, both Jaeln Green and Shawn Preston Jr clearly taunting Williams after the miss and both announcers thought calling the penalty for un-sportsman like was excessive.

On the basketball side, we have been forced to listen to clowns like Bill Walton and Dakich.

I will give that network credit, however, for having multiple options for spill over channels when the starts of later games run into earlier games still in progress. Something FOX is still inconsistent with.

However, today was the nail in the coffin for my tolerance for their networks.
