“Poor football coverage”

Your coverage of the Surgar bowl was horrible! You don't need to shrink my screen to watch some ego maniac sports announcers! That was the worst televised game i have ever seen! I will refuse to watch ESPN if I ever witness this kind of coverage! YUCK! I want my TV back!

ESPN powers that be, please note the professionalism, decorum and lack of drama from the NFL commentators on the noncable stations.
No yelling, no hype, no drama, no fashion show complete with hair pigs dressed for a ball, no dancing in one's seat, no swearing, and no harsh,
Hurtful criticisms of others. Just 4 or 5 players and coaches acting civilized.
Your programming has gone down the drain in a hurry and still sliding. I Honestly stopped tuning in and have to wonder who does and why.

I saw an ad at a friend's house about soccer on ESPN streaming. There are almost zero games from EPL or Germany. As for Men's Basketball my UNC games are never on. You can't get a refund so I wasted over $100 for a year subscription. I will contest on my VISA soon. They suck.

I'm an alumni of University of Michigan, grew up watching it in the days of 4 networks, no cable, now you have to pay to watch your home team in a bowl game, what about the average American that can't afford such luxury in budget, or they don't pay for right package, money/greed ruins everything, even what used to be just fun college rivals are more serious than life itself to these corporate sponsors. This is American football, not Wallstreet people these are our teams not there's. We should have the right to root our teams on freely, ESPN is wrong on this one.

Kimberly Martin may be worst analyst on any sports network. Almost all of her commentary is prompted and has to be accompanied by an iPad.
I get ESPN may be after the completely oblivious to football demographic but I can get better analysis at the Dollar General Store.

Espn requires a tv provider which you have to sign up and pay for. So no espn is not free and there's a catch.

It's also very hard/slow and sometimes not possible to watch video highlights on ESPN app because it's ridiculously slow. A big organization like this needs to do better with their products. My disappointment with the ESPN app has been for years and it's not getting better.

In the last two weeks I have watched quite a few of your morning TV shows such as FIrst Take and Get Up. I have enjoyed watching many of your analysts discuss the past NFL playoffs, etc. and noticed there is a glaring difference in the ability of some of your broadcasters. Following is a list of the most capable;

Stephen A
Rex Ryan
Ryan Clark
Marcus Spears
Dan Orlovsky
Mike Greenberg

There are however some personnel that appear on these shows that are obviously there only to satisfy ESPNs DEI initiatives as they are completely incapable of providing any useful information and have no background sports. I instantly turn the show off and refuse to watch such absolute CRAP in my home that is being broadcast for only one obvious purpose.

PLEASE STOP THIS DEI nonsense and put capable on your shows as the ones that are there for a purpose other than provide the viewer useful information are unwelcome.

I have been watching ESPN for 40 Years and have always like it, BUT I know now after seeing the new show coming out about Racism and hosted by a Very Corrupt Person! If I can watch any other Network for Sports, I would! ESPN Sucks and anyone who works there also! I'm a 100% Disabled Navy Veteran and Love My Country and if I ever see Colon Kapernick in person, I will be using my 1st amendment Rights to give that POS My opinion of Anti Americans like him who should be Thrown out of My Country!

ESPN needs to find people who actually KNOW sports. It seems they have schedulers for programming who have no idea of the time it takes to complete games, irregardless of the sport, they do it across the board. They put in their line up when a certain game will start, when you tune in there is the previous game still being played for another 30-45 minutes. So aggravating, program in the real world!

ESPN has done it again…another terrible show, that is. "Unsportsmanlike" is on the air and, omg, it's absolutely horrible! ESPN, in its effort to be PC compliant, has once again ignored excellence. These 3 hosts have no chemistry, no original thought, and no information. This show is just hot air. Typical of ESPN, it's style over substance. Which explains why the ESPN audience and numbers are plummeting.

Just wanted you jag-offs to see my trust pilot review.

SCAM! ESPN IS SCAMMING PEOPLE! HORRIBLE SERVICE! AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I CALLED 4 TIMES TO CANCEL. THEY WON'T PROVIDE A CONFIRMATION EMAIL THAT THEY CANCELED THE SUBSCRIPTION. AND KEEP BILLING YOU! YOU HAVE TO CALL YOUR CARD OR BANK AND HAVE THEM BLOCK THE ESPN! ESPN IS RUNNING A SUBSCRIPTION SCAM THAT THEY MAKE IMPOSSIBLE TO CANCEL! HORRIBLE SERVICE FROM TOP TO BOTTOM! TRYS TO GET YOU TO UPGRADE TO WATCH THE GAMES! EVERY GAME YOU WANT TO WATCH, THEY SAY IT'S NOT PART OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PACKAGE! YOU'D BE BETTER OFF TRYING ONE OF THE OTHER SPORTS SERVICES OUT THERE. RUN FROM ESPN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! DO NOT FALL FOR THE ESPN SUBSCRIPTION SCAM!

This broadcast of the above hame is the worst in the history of Football. You have 6 morons on the sideline with microphones. Each broadcaster just waiting to tell us about the game or their opinion of it. The worst ones are wearing muscle shirts on a split screen. Since when are the broadcasters more important than the game itself!
It is a pathetic coverage of a top rated game! I couldn't watch it. Show the game not the broadcasters and tell them to shut up!

You can not show tv channels completely. Things look old. You do not make channel watching seem real. You are sorry.

The narrator for ESPN sounds like a circus clown or a pedophile (Much like the McDonalds guy). Is this a joke? I almost don't want to watch ESPN anymore, cuz that dude is so annoying & his voice makes me want to punch him. Why would they pay someone to chase viewers away with a clown as a narrator. ESPN, just have SVP or anyone but that guy. I mean, how stupid are you?

Verified purchase

I hated the coverage of the Dodger/ Padres game on Sunday, August 7th, and am usually disappointed with the way ESPN covers games. First of all, the on field interview of Juan Soto and the split screen interview of owner Peter Seidler, wan nothing but distracting. The announcers tend to chit-chat and never call the game. I suggest they listen to some Vin Scully who knew how to call a game and not distract from it.
