Shame on ESPN. I’ve watched the “grandaddy of them all”–the Rose Bowl-for more than 60 years. Imagine how appalled I was to, without warning, lose the last few moments of an exciting game only to be switched to the Clemson-Alabama game which hadn't started yet. While the Rose Bowl was concluding in a tie and went on to two overtimes, we were forced to watch inane talking heads about the Clemson-Alabama rivalry and its similarity to that of Muhammad Ali and George Foreman fights, and to lengthy commercials. It was one of the most egregious and insensitive-to-viewer-interest actions I’ve seen from ESPN. And one more thing. What’s with the split screen? It was terrible too. The technocrats at ESPN are caught up too much in their technological toys and appealing to the new young technologically oriented crowd.It all ruined my traditional New Years Day watching the Rose Bowl. Throw the ESPN technological bums out!
Let's think together again, soon.
