Are you serious ESPN

[Tim_T]

I turn on ESPN 2 for my saturday fix of bass fishing and I get tennis? What the.....? I don't care about duece, love set or match and I certainly don't care about the Australian Open. I need my fix.

Done the same thing and was not happy. I guess that I should not expect anything less from the company that owns Bassmasters to interupt fishing shows with tennis. Maybe they are interested in buying the WTA and this is their way of showing support for tennis. At least I have plenty DVR'd to help me get my fix this morning, but already seen all the WGFS that I have and need a Zona fix BAD

Well, I switched over to versus and they have a lot of bass fishing. Just watched Roland, and Bill Dance is on now. Not the same as Zona and the Bassmasters. but it will have to do.

Tennis *****, where is the fishing!

middle aged fat guys shooting guns at targets every week night.

Dagone it Andy, you had me until that last line. I resemble that remark LOL!

Yeah what the heck? It's like me saying who wants to watch a young loudmouth know it all (Skeet, Mike I., Swindel) yell and scream on Saturdays?
All kidding aside, I would rather watch Tennis than watch those guys, and that is the honest truth.

Yea I wasnt very happy with the tennis either, but thank god for the versus channel. Anyone else think One More Cast With Shaw Grigsby is terrible like i do? He reminds me of Ike. Every fish he hooks is a giant and they always turn out to be 2-3 pounders. Plus his laugh is annoying as hell. I lost count of how many times he said redeye shad this morning to. The best fishing shows on tv in my opinion by far are wgfs with zona, bass pros, and hunt for big fish.

Guys.... Guys....

Upgrade to DishNetwork, and purchase the High Definition package, and you get fishing 24/7 (and I hate that abbreviation..LOL)

Plus get the DVR, and record shows on while we are at work, and watch them when we want to.

I just wish Dish would give me a discount for my advertising them to help out fishermen looking for fishing shows!

i agree totally. he sounds almost as abnoxious as roland martin sometimes....EVERY fish is a giant. bass pros, wgfs, hook n look, and hank parker are my favorite fishing shows these days. they are the most informational and entertaining on a consistent basis...sometimes the show with al linder is good (if you can stand the northern accent).

the tennis was a big disappointment, but thank goodness for versus.

ESPN is the best thing that could have happened for the FLW series and Versus tv.

[yellow20xd]

not to start a fight or anything, but would ESPN rather run repeats or a live sporting event? As much as I LOVE TO FISH, I understand the need for a company to make money. Like it or not I'll bet MORE people watched the tennis matches than would have watched re-run fishing shows... Dan
