Spelling Bee on ESPN

First of all, this really grinds my gears, and i'll explain why. Who the **** wants to watch 3/4 of Non-American immigrant kids spell words like Neurasthenic and break down and cry or faint when they miss spell a word. 2nd of all, how is this a friggin sport and 3rd, i want my friggin baseball game. You fuking cheaters.

I guess I shouldn't send you Spellbound for Christmas then? At least these kids are much better than the ones shooting up, having sex, robbing people, selling drugs and getting pregnant. I'll take the little nerds any day.

Definitely more action than baseball.

Bookmaker or 5Dimes had a couple of props on this. Or maybe it was Bodog? Boy or girl winner were each like -120. What kinda surprised me was they had an age of the winner prop and the younger group was heavily favored. Was something like 6,7,8,9,10 -300 and 11,12,13,14,15 +200.

[Boscoe]

Take the under 9.5 letters for the winning word.

[urge2kill]

Just googled it. The last 4 have been under. The 5 prior to that were over.

Anyone knows why they call it spelling B and not A or C?

[shari91]

From Wikipedia's spelling bee page: Historically the word bee has been used to describe a get-together where a specific action is being carried out, like a husking bee, a quilting bee, or an apple bee.

I woke up later this morning and wanted to watch Sportscenter, and I turned this shit on. This in no way should be on ESPN, PBS kids or the Disney Channel would be a lot more suiting.

only reason to watch it is Erin Andrews, how can the boys focus when she is standing right off the stage?
