Does the owner of ESPN have family ties to someone high up in Womens NCAA BBall?

[OneLossParlayGuy]

Because Im really struggling to understand why ESPN gives it so much coverage. Even watching this Uconn womens team play is awful. ESPN might as well broadcast the pick up game from the local gym

[LLXC]

Probably trying to reel in some female demographics.

[zgates]

it really is a joke.

no skill involved whatsoever.

they just toss the ball up and hope for the best

[stealthyburrito]

worst time of year to tune into espn.

[rm18]

they have contraxt to fulfill dont know why they agree to it, during Superbowl Sunday womens hoops on all day to help get the games in

I happen to agree with you, but if you want to get your ass kicked by a bunch of grandmas and grandpas, come here to Connecticut and say that shit. They're fukin crazy with this shit.

[dfberger23]

I hate it but if it gets ratings then I understand. They gotta appeal to everyone.

[Emily_Haines]

what else they going to show exhibition baseball, bowling, darts????

give me a WNCAA tournament anytime

sucks that they are not showing any WNIT games

[jjgold]

People watch it that is why it is on

Use your heads

[Intuitive_Edge]

They have the rights to host it, i assume that is the obvious reason why lol. They need to stop being bitches and pay up to take over Mens March Madness. Stupid fuking network has more than enough ESPN channels to host all of the games.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

They show Beaver Ball because they don't want to be accused of sex discrimination by crybaby feminists who love to conveniently ignore the fact that all of the pre-final four games are so sparsely attended that one could walk up to the window an hour before game time and get two tickets in the front row.

[beach nut]

Nothing wrong with covering womens sports a little bit. ESPN has great coverage of mens basketball and football.

[Congruency]

Appeals to the sick degens who bet on it, and the truly sick degens who need to rub one out

There are no true fans of this shit

[HoulihansTX]

This made me LOL

[Jaug]

Like jj wrote, its because people watch it.

[CanuckG]

I've watched more competitive games at the YMCA than what happens with Womens Balls.

There are plenty of other things that could be covered over Womens hoops.

College baseball is well under way. show that instead.

Show more of the college hockey playoffs

Id rather watch poker than Womens basketball

its god awful

[Prop Bet Master]

Girls basketball players are freaks of nature! They're freaks and they don't deserve to live!

[Prop Bet Master]

ESPN, The Worldwide Leader In Shit Television!

[Jnas]

I'd rather watch paint dry

[McBa1n]

Women's hoops on the highest levels in college is quite exciting to watch. When I was living in CT, EVERYONE watched the Huskies. It was great basketball. It's just, there's so many crappy schools, the level of competition is really poor. Watching the Huskies beat on 16 seeds is not exciting. Watching UConn play Pat Summit is VERY exciting.

[southpaw74]

It does suck that they aren't fun to watch and there isn't anyone in the stands outside of family. That tells you all you need to know!

[stevenash]

You just described the mens NIT quarterfinals.

Did you know for 13 dollars you could have sat right next to Ed Cooley Sunday in the Fairfield / Kent State game.

UCONN/ Stanford / Tenn. / Baylor final womens four would do very good ratings.
That final four would make nice money for ESPN.

[stogies]

it really is a joke.

no skill involved whatsoever.

alot of those girls would school most of the sbr posters. it is boring alot of times but its not correct to say they got no skills.

[EaglesPhan36]

Because they get sponsors who pay money, same reason they show some steroid ravaged Norweigian pushing a boulder down a street.

[Ice House]

This made me LOL

I couldn't agree more... I'd rather see them televised an adult league game than womens anything... unless ofcourse they come out with a womens college bikini contest.

[Emily_Haines]

These games are very easy to beat. You guys must literally hate money. Bitch about a sport the books are practically given away money on yet think trying to beat the mens tournament is where the action should be.

[bradnowell]

i dont even watch them when i have money on it

[EaglesPhan36]

Could not agree more. Books have no idea where to set the women's lines because they do not set them for most of the season. That's why you see wild swings in line movement after they get posted. They react very quickly to the action laid on them.

[Deuce]

Liberal media broadcasting equal rights and woman's rights. Sad though these broads will do nothing after this but either work or push out babies. Even Maya Moore and that other amazon.

[HotStreak]

Took my wife's parents to a UCONN women's game at Gampel. Nice atmosphere. Kids. Especially girls seem to have a great time. Grandparents love it. Especially grandmas to whom Geno Auriemma is the 2nd coming of Tom Jones.

[gryfyn1]

Girls basketball players are freaks of nature! They're freaks and they don't deserve to live!

i know, right...

[nobodyukno]

If women's basketball is so easy to beat, someone post their plays so we can all cash in

[TobiasFunke]

Girls basketball players are freaks of nature! They're freaks and they don't deserve to live!

WTF is wrong with you??

[stc9357]

Everybody in here beside a select few hate money, I'll take the easy money every day made money off the totals last night and conn. 1st half.
