Default Thank God for the DVR, ESPN sucks!

ESPN is so bias; I do not think they deserve to show the Grand Slams. Really enjoyed USA network, it had a lot more variety. So far we saw an Agassi rerun yesterday, instead of watching other players. I would rather watch the best players in the world than just Americans, RodNeck and the Williams sisters play boring tennis, 40 to 60 unforced errors a match.

Now we see the Williams sisters playing against 100 ranked players instead of Juan Carlos / Tommy Haas. Then Martina, which was a joke. One nice thing about the DVR is you can skip the matches. 8 hours worth of tennis, 2 hours were decent tennis.

Maybe better to go play tennis and skip it altogether. Very poor coverage!

Actually katarddx, espn showed the santoro match on tape delay, so they didn't have to show us any of it. pretty shocking that they chose to do so.
