Best Sport Shows

One problem I have with these shows is an inability to quantify anything learned from them, assuming you trust the expertise of the analysts (which in itself is dubious).

What about First Take/First And Ten? I get all my sports advice from Skip Bayless

Skip is a funny guy! Very good debater too.

those shows are all awful for helping you bet sports
watch the MIT online courses on statistics and probability and you'll go miles ahead

Sports shows can aid in the sports betting process, especially when good analysts have inside experience with their sport, as many are retired athletes. I'm just curious however, even if it has nothing to do with sports betting, what specific sports shows are highly rated amongst others. I can think of three that come to mind, that I truly enjoy.

1. Pardon the Interruption
2. E:60
3. 30 for 30

What channel?

Watching mainstream sports shows will generally give you a better idea who to fade than who to bet. If the Colts are away to the Jaguars, the line is Colts -3 and I happened to hear all of the mainstream shows talking about how "the Colts are gonna kill'em," I might look more carefully for a Jags +3 +105 or +3.5.
