Hannah Storm will be the co-anchor for a new live morning edition of SportsCenter on ESPN. I'd rather see the repeats of the late SportsCenter from the previous night.</a>

This has positive implications if it means The Deuce will also pick up some of the feed and ****can some or all of First Take. Less Bayless et al would be a wonderful thing.

It doesn't look as though that will be the case, but at least it gives us an option other than a repeat of a SportsCenter you might have seen the night before or a live First Take you can't bear to watch the first time.

From the linked story: "Interestingly, the revamped SportsCenters will compete against the ESPN2 morning block of Mike & Mike In the Morning and First Take."

Considering some of the people who do the late-night SportsCenter, I'd rather not see that particular endless cycle of reruns. If this means the ratio of information to catchphrases increases, it's a good thing.

I would take 100 boo-yahs, 1000 back, back, back, back, backs over 10 seconds of Hannah Storm. Every time.

You realize that theory can be tested, right? :D

And I'd be a willing participant. She's uninteresting, unoriginal, boring, bland, and adds nothing to anything she's ever been on.

Albert Belle will be so pleased.

Can't believe I forgot that category, because it's the one I fall into. I can't stand SportsCenter anymore.

I'd rather see a half hour of the heavy set lady from ESPN Deportes give us soccer scores.

I have never gotten the Hannah Storm thing.

 

[cranberry]

She won't make the show any less watchable than it is now.

Fixed

<a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/news/story?id=3393816">So now ESPN will have live programming from 6 a.m.-3 p.m. weekdays. Right now it's all taped programming with the exception of some live updates. </a>

What's with all the Hannah hate? I'm glad to see her back in sports, and to survive a situation where she had to answer to a boss who dumped his wife for one of her co-workers.

 

[bigbadeagle]

Nine hours of SportsCenter?
Slitting. Wrists. Now.

 

[sportschick]

I like Hannah. That is all.

 

[zebracoy]

I just wish they'd put that damn ticker on freeze for when I watch highlights of Game 7 of the World Series, didn't get to watch it due to work and then, midway, see the score come across the bottom.

That's an exaggeration, of course, but you get the point. Don't build up a minute of highlights and then reveal the score early.

No hate. Just don't want to watch her. She's bland.
Does she do her job? Suree, I guess. Do I have to like watching her? Nope.

 

[imjustagirl]

I don't know, slappy, considering how much everyone here rails against the caricatures there (Scott, Berman) I would think "bland" would be appreciated. How DARE someone just give the scores and highlights. No catchphrases? Boo hiss!

I'd rather have my teeth drilled than have to share my mornings with Hannah Storm.
I don't want much SportsCenter as it is.
I'll watch less now.
Oh, and some of us are old enough to remember when Ms. Storm went on Donahue in the wake of the Lisa Olson/Patriots debacle and said no reporters should be allowed in locker rooms. So there's another reason to dislike her beyond her spectacular lack of talent.
