I would rather sit in a dark room for hours alone than lay one eyeball on the World Cup.
Do you have to make a thread everytime you miss PTI?

Is there a reason you can't either get a Tivo, or at least download the Podcasts from iTunes? Of course you won't bother to answer this.

The World Cup is the biggest event in the world. Not just sporting event but event period. It is the biggest thing that ever takes place on this planet. The only other thing that can rival it is war.

You can deny this fact all you want but it is just that, A FACT.

Anyone who ******* about not being able to watch a frickin' talk show because an actual sporting event is on is a fool. ESPN is there to show sporting events, not display dumbass Kornholer talk about things he knows very little about. My 7 year old could cover sports better than that idiot.

Any event should be shown over PTI. Whether it be a dog show, a spelling bee, football, or anything else. Events take priority over talk shows. Period.

Talk shows are for women.

ehhh...I can watch Soccer, although it is for sure not my fav. But I feel what the OP is saying, I hate when I cant get my daily dose of PTI. But I'd rather PTI get pre-emptied by the World Cup than some sh*t like the French Open.

Yes, god forbid we interrupt a talk show on a sports network for a major sporting event like the French Open. Talk shows are far more important than actual sporting events.

Exactly...Actual sporting events should take precedent on a sports network any day over a stupid talk opinion show. ESPN has become emasculated with all those whinny, bitching and moaning opinion shows.
