ESPN has gotten to be like MTV for me. ESPN doesn't even show "sports" anymore unless you want to watch bowling and softball. There are more talk shows on there than anything else.
What moron thinks it's a good idea to have the Phillies and Brewers play at 3:00pm EST on Wednesday! It's not like they are competing with another sport during the week. Start at least at 7:05pm so the masses can watch.
I hate MLB and ESPN.
For years I have been bitching about being blacked out of Phillies games in Erie, PA.
Now, Friday I go to watch the Cubs and Brewers game on ESPN and it's blacked out! Why in the world would that game be blacked out in Erie, PA?
Last year I called MLB, or Dish, or ESPN (can't remember) and they told me my local teams were the Pirates and Indians (each is about 2 hours away) and never mentioned the Phillies. Dish also told me ESPN is the one that tells Dish not to broadcast here. It doesn't make ANY sense. Especially...
Why do all the Phillies games on ESPN get blacked out in my area? I live in Erie, PA... no where near Shea or CBP. But I've had both Phillies home and away games blacked out that are on ESPN or ESPN2, last year included.
I've heard that the Phillies games get blackedout in the entire state...
