Will this game ever kickoff?

or are these numnuts gonna just keep blabbing? i forgot i left the tv on mute so i wouldn't have to listen to them, ran into the living room, and THEY'RE STILL TALKING.

c'mon, let's play some football!!

lol. you got that right. no wonder every game runs 30-45 minutes late. $5 says they try to squeeze in as many commercials as they can, too. just like the nfl. maybe... score... commercial break... kick off... commercial break. sounds about right. i wish espn could just get every worthwhile sporting event. they're not perfect, but they're better than any of the major networks. except when keith jackson is calling a game for abc, of course.

Mussnburger has thoroughly pissed me off

I thought the benefits of a nationally televised game would be unbiased reporting

Nothing more annoying than watching your favorite team get beaten, while an ass$%$% makes it worse with exaggerations and unneeded commentary favoring the other side.

i think i finally figured out a solution. it's actually a combination of several things... one, i turned down the volume so i can barely hear the announcers. but, i can still hear the crowd noise, which is required for a college football game. and two, i use the dvr. i pause the game for a while, do something else, then watch and fast forward between every play. that way i don't have to listen to his mindless drivel.
