And maybe not just Sports Center, but sports channels in general. I mean, it really seems that threre is just not enough sports in the world to fill 24 hours - 7 days a week - or they wouldn't have to resort to playing hours of Poker, Dog shows, Pro Wrestling, Darts and Billiards. While I don't want to slag any of these endavours individually (well, I do, but I wont

), I have to questoin their inclusion as a "sport." I mean Poker?! What the hell.
Professional sports languishes in greed and self-parody while I lament.
Peace,
