When did UW become such snowflakes?

It's the Nike effect.

More evidence that ESPN has moved past the line of professionalism. They are supposed to be covering the game not making themselves a part of it.


this is the same network that pulls a coach to the side during a time out for an interview, in bball. they also put a headset on the coach for an interview during softball games. injecting themselves into the competition is what they do. smh...

Interviewing a coach during the game should never be considered acceptable behavior. I don’t care what broadcast or who is broadcasting. As a person who has broadcast baseball, football, and basketball games nothing makes me angrier than seeing these broadcasters pestering a coach while they are doing their job.

Don't be a vagina all your life, Kevin.

Pointing out ESPN and SEC are married to each other is incorrect how? I know team SEC sticks together but ESPN sucks balls IMO

I hate ESPN, Kevin.

They have been bagging on LSU for years.

Your statement that they don't bag on SEC teams is incorrect and sounds like something a vagina would say.

Have a good evening.

Funny ESPN sucked B1G balls all throughout the 1990s until mid 2000s and then they saw the writing on the wall with the B1G and jumped on the SEC.

Teams like Washington do get the shaft. Now if it was the USC Trojans playing Auburn, ESPN would be swinging on their nuts and talking about how great USC is. ESPN tends to have favorite teams in each league.

I guess I don't get the uproar? Every anslyst/color guy on every network comments on teams SoS. The real proof will be if Wasjington runs the table and then gets left out

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

pretty effective at outing idiots, though

And the beautiful part is they are doing it themselves

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Literally ready to beg FS1/NBC/CBSN/, to create a decent alternative to ESPIN....begging

Maybe SportsHoopla can create a network? @Carnzo would be like John Buccigross

He was being a cvnt and then he tried to cover it up with the 'shout out to all the brothas in Green Lake' tweet.

He definitely was, but he did make a valid point. We haven't stepped up on the national stage yet, and until then we can expect late night starts and people doubting us.

If anything; they shouldn't block him from broadcasting Husky games in the future. This just fuels the desire to be better.

I read his tweet before he took it down. He was replying to a writer for the UW Dawgpound. If you had watched the Cal vs UW game a few years back that he called you'd know he was being a flat out cvnt with that tweet and to top it off he tried playing the race card bs after he was called out.

Best way to shut him up is by winning these games.

Eh, UW fans are being overly sensitive. But at the same time UW said fuck you to ESPN last year which in turn the entire conference said fuck to them in the preseason. They should use a little common sense that there is a line between bantor and an eventual huge battle coming down the pipeline if they keep poking a conference that can take the entire west coast off their networks if they so chose.

That goes both ways. As much as we love to bash ESPN, the PAC can't afford to not have their games on the worldwide leader.

Calling uw schedule weak is being redundant seeing how they play in the p12
