Bleep you, ESPN Classic.

It was a bad call. And I'm FAR from being a Miami fan.

 

THE BOARD HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN FOR LESS THAN THIS!

 

I thought it was interference at the time.

Took a long fucking time to throw the flag, though. No one was going to be happy at that point.

 

Exactly my thoughts on reading this. There's a 1001 excellent reasons to bash ESPN classic and the way they've ruined what was once an outstanding concept. But this is one of the whinier more-self serving versions I've heard.

 

Oh, Jesus Christ, not this shit again. Once again, it shouldn't have gotten to that point anyway.

Fine, it was pass interference, but the play was a fuck of a lot closer than the one late in the fourth when Gamble was jobbed on third down.

He was ruled OB on a catch when a) he caught it and b) he was interfered with. Either way, Bucks get a new set of downs and they run out the clock to win by 3. Instead Sievers sends it to OT.

Porter's call was borderline ... the play above (my text, not Hockey's photo) was not.

Go Bucks forever!

 

Ohio State physically beat the everlasting shit out of Miami in that game.

They deserved to win.

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

Excellent point. ESPN Classic used to be a great channel to watch, but anymore is terrible. If you want to rip ESPN Classic, rip it for not showing more games, not for actually showing one. I hate both the schools involved in said game, but I would rather watch it than another episode of classic World Series of Poker.

 

... or hockey.

 

It's ESPN. What does it hurt them to air Game 7, Oilers-Flyers? Or the Yzerman double-ot winner game against St. Louis? Or a hundred other games? They have the footage at their disposal, yet they're content to air WSOP and Weight Lifting.

 

I don't mind hockey games at all, I just mind World Series of Poker or the hot-dog eating bullshit.
