i have seen that a lot of people on this board say that they have stopped watching espn. i have a question for them.Where do you guys get your sports news from (on the tv)?
even though i hate espn i cant help but watch ESPNEWS once every 2-3 hours to get the latest news and highlights
NFL Network, MLB Network, etc.
I don't watch any BSPN studio shows, just live sports. Their 30 for 30 series was great, though. If I want specific highlights, I can get them on the internet pretty easily.
For me, a UConn alum, they also have bashed the basketball program pretty good. After Spygate, I was frustrated but would watch Sportscenter-U on ESPNU, after the UConn stuff, I was done for good.

NFLN or online. The only time I will turn on to FESPN is when they are showing the Patriots play live. Otherwise, they ain't getting a minute of my viewing time. Gameday I will watch Fox and/or CBS, and also check in on PatsFans for the latest updates.
To be honest, you can get a LOT of great Pats news between their official site, and the daily news summaries that Ian posts here.

Their shtick has gotten old and really needs to be retired. It's embarrassing in it's predictability, and it's patronizing treatment of it's viewers.
.....what he said.....eloquently

There's nothing wrong with ESPN that's not a problem with just about every other media outlet in the country. Watch what you wish. ESPN has some good on-air talent.

ESPN is the lazy sports fans way to get their sports fix ... it's entertainment of some sort - not a sort that I prefer and I do not watch unless it's a game or I will watch their news channel where you get the post game interviews.

thanks for all the recommendations, to be frank though i believe NFLN is as bad as ESPN when it comes to quality esp. ppl like Jamie dukes

My pleasure. And just remember that some of the same people who bash ESPN spend their radio time listening to 98.5, who are far more "anti-Patriots" (at least from 2-6) than ESPN is, even though that station carries the games locally.

If you have iTunes, both WEEI and 98.5 are available. Also, the radio.com and Yahoo Radio apps both carry 98.5. WEEI has their own app with available streaming.

WFAN online radio player, for when WEEI and 98.5 are both sucking (which happens quite a bit, unfortunately, and more since WEEI stupidly changed its lineup). It's NY radio, but you can sometimes hear good sports talk and good interviews:
