Raleigh gets ESPN2 HD and CBS Sucks

Finally, Time Warner has come around and gave us ESPN2 in HD now if we can only get the NC State channel (ie ESPNU) I will be happy. ESPN2 HD is channel 289 if you haven’t found it yet.

In other news, I just want to rant about the shitass coverage CBS gave us of the 2007 Masters. Last year CBS went with the 56 minutes of golf and 4 minutes of commercials each hour but apparently they tried to make up for it this year and ran a commercial every other shot. As I was sitting with my bro and pops on Sunday, at one point the series went one shot, commercial, one shot, commercial, commentary and scores, commercial. It wasn’t just the commercials, it was the terrible camera angles and inconsistent player coverage that was driving me up the wall. But the biggest pain in my ass was the fact that they only had coverage from 330-end of each round. What happened to all the early morning coverage? I remember laying around with my roommates from 10am to 7pm with a 1hr break around 2.

I was really disappointed in the terrible coverage of the whole 2007 Masters. I hope they fix it for 2008 Masters

The Masters coverage was horrific. It was a three-hour Tiger blowfest with a little P.S. at the end: “By the way, Zach Johnson is your winner.” Totally agree on that note.

you should be out mowing the lawn instead of laying your lazy ass on the couch!
