ESPN

Watching the Real Salt Lake/Sporting Kansas City 11/11/18 match. I would hope an ESPN televised game would incorporate non-biased announcers. These two announcers are so biased towards Sporting KC, I had to leave the room. The clincher was the comment made after Sporting's second goal, "Real Salt Lake, GOOD LUCK". It may not sound like much in type, but the audio infuriated me!!!

In the future, I would hope ESPN would find individuals that could announce the game in an unbiased manner. If I could give this broadcast a "0" rating I would. The "1" rating is a gift to ESPN!!!!

Jason Whitlock fire man set Dak Prescott sounded like a civil war name and that he was on the wrong side you're nothing but a bunch of closet racist 10 of us retired guys will never watch you again and we'll talk bad about you everywhere we go thanks for nothing is PN you stink

Please stop with the terrible camera work for the Champions Classic. ESPN gets worse and worse every year. Nobody wants to watch a basketball game from the ceiling nor do they want to watch from a camera angle that is constantly spinning.

If I go to a game and pay tickets for the best seats in the house, they are not on the ceiling, over top of the player, under the player or behind the basket or from the other end of the court. The best seats are in the middle and up high enough to see the whole game.

Show all the angles you want for the replays but stop the stupid angle changes during play. It's unbelievable how ESPN has no clue when it comes good camera work. Please stop!!!

You refuse to show the UCF standings and I find that Racist bigoted I needless to say discriminatory ESPN stinks to high heaven.

I had Espn app. Now I can or get it to work anymore. I am very dispointed in ESPN. I can or change he tv provider etc to get Espn Please advise what to do so I can have Espn back. Before Friday. Thanks

For the first few F! Grands Prix, the practice sessions ans qualifying were on one ESP channel. For the last tow Grands Prix, they have been spread over several ESP channels some of which are on another cable tier. This means you would have to spend more money to get them.

This is a disgusting way of treating your customers.

I want my money back on my card .my boyfriend in prison never got his magazines I'm very upset with y'all I payed for the subscription and didnt get one magazine when for the month of October I was supposed to receive 3 .I don't want to deal with y'all anymore I just need my money back on my card ending 9145 The order was for Jonathan Orozco #01962086 4304 hwy 202 Beeville Tx ,78102 ...I'm so upset and so is my bf .My money should equal to 14 dollars and some cents i want my money asap ty

Your first have coverage of tonight's Monday night football, Giants and Falcons, was absolutely terrible. Constant complaints about Manning, praise for over paid loud mouthed players and no replay of penalties. Terrible coverage.

ESPN announcers are biased against the University of Texas (UT) covering the UT Baylor game. They should just cover the game and not pick favorites.

Please review your NCAA football camera angles. It is very frustrating to not be able to see the teams as they prepare to line up between plays. We don't even know who has come in/out because your cameras are on fixed screens (graphics, etc) or shots of cheerleaders, coach head shots, fans for such long periods of time that the viewer has no idea of how the team is lining up.

And at times we even miss the beginning of the plays. We've noticed this all year and am so very frustrated.

I have several complaints about the announcers on ESPN which include other networks as well:

1. The Monday Night Football game crew last nite was awful (Denver v KC game). On the next to last play of the game the announcer said that Denver tried the "hook and ladder" play. I think the play is called "hook and lateral". It is the play where the receiver runs a hook route and then laterals the ball to another player on his team. How can a player "ladder" the ball? Never the less, they need to study up and pay more attention to the game rather than chit-chat among themselves and speculate as to what play a team is going to run. They don't have a clue what is going to happen!

2. Why do the baseball announcers always say "by bunting the runner to second the manager is playing the odds". It…

Monday night football has become a no star performance... Announcers suck. I had to turn off the audio last night ! What a pair of idiots in the booth... I tune in for football not rock bands and sideshows.

I am writing about the Sunday, September 30 2018 broadcast of College Football Final. My husband and I watch College Football Final every Sunday. I am an alum of Texas Tech University and a forever fan of my Red Raiders.

Realizing my team is not in the Big 10 or ranked in the top ten, I am always excited when we are even mentioned on the broadcast.

However, when we are mentioned, I would ask for accuracy. This past Saturday, Texas Tech played West Virginia. It was an exciting game and a good match up, although the broadcast would not have led anyone to that conclusion. The segment that included the highlight was related to the quarterbacks who are “Heisman” possibilities.

There is no doubt that Will Grier from WVU is talented, but I take exception to the way the performance of the two…

you claim to be world sports and you and I know that's not true.you should change your name to espn soccor.you have baseball with playffs,the nfl and on sunday ,soccor,go cart races.i live in santa cruz dr le sierra.nothing but crar from amm to pm.your program director should be shot me

The alabama game was not finished and you changed it to espnews. I only pay for espn to see the alabama games. I have dish regional pack and. National pack and still could not watch the rest of the only game I'm paying 24 dollars a month to watch.

I'm very upset that my game was changed to a channel I cannot watch. I will cancel my packages if this happens again.

Please, please, please do not put Beth Mowins in the MNF play by play spot anymore. Her voice is absolutely one of the most annoying I’ve ever heard. I’m all for women’s equality, but she doesn’t belong in a play by play position.

How much football has she played? I’ll remember to check next year before the game to see if she’s on. I’d like time to have my eardrums removed beforehand. I’m not the only person that feels this way. Sorry Beth!

I watch Sunday Night baseball. I think ESPN needs to look at Jessica Mendoza. I feel shes not right for that job. I wont watch Sunday Night baseball.

Feels like I am Watching the penn state network while trying to watch the pitt-penn state game which I now have to turn off because of the bias of Todd blackledge. They talk so little about pitt, was hard to realize who penn state was playing.

So for programming, you assign a biased former player and bore the hell out of your audience. Onto a different game, can’t watch it anymore

During both of the last two college football seasons, I have complained to you about the unbridled display of large, boldly painted, dominating religious signs that kept appearing in your Game Day program broadcasts. I'm not anti-religion but do resent anybody trying to force his religious beliefs on me.

Last week, the opening week of the new season, the religious signs became increasingly obnoxious and increasingly overbearing as the program progressed -- they were probably the worst, most annoying I've ever seen on Game Day -- and it was obvious that the program directors were doing nothing to reduce their impact. By the end of last week's program, those signs completely dominated the background of every shot of the panel of announcers. I cut ESPN slack last Saturday only because the…

Neil Everett & Stan Varett make a mockery of ESPN sports reporting! I can’t stand watching those two idiots. Get Up w Greenie & Beadle is terrible too. RB_Mrs B just does the job. It’s not that difficult. You are very close to losing a 30+ yr viewer if you don’t rid of the comedy & talk show crap: I just want sports news pls!

The most hurtful part to Max's unwillingness to be fair to BPS,is knowing how well…

Not only was the split screen was on while trying to watch the game, but the commentators were talking about anything but the plays that was happening. Then, they interviewed someone while the game was being played and you couldnt watch the game!

PLEASE ESPN, don't cover another Alabama game, I want to SEE and HEAR what is going on on the field. Awful.

is not showing a love game when the description on guide says they will. who cares about tennis, out soccer on when you say it will be on

Dear ESPN,

I try to no longer watch this channel but just wanted to watch some of the US Open Tennis. And unfortunately clicked on First Take with Max Kellerman. I'm disabled vet. 3 PURPLE HEARTS and a SILVER STAR etc. with the 5th Marine Regt. I know that I speak for a couple million Marines dead and alive when I tell you that I hate your left wing Socialist garbage and I know you have lost many viewers. As for little Max and his whiney snow flake attitude. Take it home to mommy. He should every once in awhile visit a military cemetery and try to think about how many guys have given their young lives for this great nation and they didn't do it for whiners like him to abuse the privilege of free speech. They died to protect the little snow flake. Stick to sports.

I watch First Take most everyday. I will usually change channel when Stephen A. and Max get into the political topics or the black and white debates. I watch for sports. Their knowledge on sports are what I thought the show was.

After watching the show today with their topic of Odell Beckam Jr . I've decided that I'm done with the CNN or Fox news type show this has become. I'll get my sporting news and etc.. on a different network.

You have been on record as RECENTLY proclaiming that ESPN will abandon any political talk and focus on what fans really want, and that is a strictly SPORTS network.

I concur with this objective.

However, on Monday, August 28, 2018, Max Kellerman violated your message to all ESPN associates by engaging in a lunatic-like tirade about the vanilla comments Tiger Woods made concerning this country's President, Donald Trump.

This was a HIGHLY POLITICAL and unacceptable rant by a person who is clearly unable to obey ESPN's own rules. Kellerman even called Tiger Woods, "STUPID," caps intended to show his actual voice inflection.

Please show the integrity of your recent non-political policy directive by either suspending or firing this ESPN employee.. I see where he has been suspended by ESPN…

SportsCenter started at 8 PM (PT)/11PM (ET) on ESPNEWS (Tuesday, 28 Aug). At 8:20 PT/11:20 ET, they announced SportsCenter was moving to ESPN as the match was wrapping up and ESPNEWS started showing the 3d (4th? ) repeat of PTI.

Meanwhile, Sharipova spent the next 40 minutes trying to lose the match so no SportsCenter until 9PM/Midnight. This is not the first time; tennis matches, baseball and basketball games are notorious for going long, overtime/extra innings, often an hour or more past their "scheduled" ending time and of course, ESPN "knows" we would much rather watch that or PTI (again) the 3d (13th?

) Top Ten for last month rather than a live SportsCenter, which, interestingly, is described as ESPN's Flagship program. Is flagship some kind of code for treated like dirt? How many…

Max Kellerman Was "out of line" when interviewing the famous golfer Tiger Woods, Kellerman was asking Tiger questions about President Trump and Tiger replied " you may or may not agree with the President, but everyone should respect the office of the President and the President". That quote is what I taught my children and they taught my grandchildren.

Now I thought reporters was non-political, after Kellerman's interview, later he started ranting and raving that Tiger's answer wasn't what Max Kellerman wanted hear. Max's comments was outrageous and inappro- priate and he should apologize to Tiger Woods and the American people who view ESPN.

I tuned in to watch the US Open and the Madison Keys' match. Instead, you showed the conclusion of the Kyrgios's match followed by Federer's interview, which they did not do a split screen while she was playing. Then you showed Keys' match until Sharapova's matched started.

Once Sharapova's match started, you switch to that match. Madison Keys is an US Citizen playing at the US Open who is ranked and seeded higher than Sharapova. And Madison Keys was a finalist in last year's US Open. So, why are we forced to the Sharapova's match until it was in the 2nd set at 3-2 in the Keys' match before you switched over?

Max Kellerman Was "out of line" when interviewing the famous golfer Tiger Woods, Kellerman asked Tiger questions about President Trump and Tiger replied " you may or may not agree with the President, but everyone should respect the office of the President and the President", that quote is what I taught my children and they taught my grandchildren. Now I thought reporters was non-political, after Kellerman's interview, later he started ranting and raving that Tiger's answer wasn't what Max wanted hear. Max's comments was outrageous and inappropriate and he should apologize to Tiger Woods and the American people who view ESPN.

Thank You Donald W. Major

i was watching the game monday night. kurkjian and eduardo perez and one other...tom something...were (supposedly) doing the play by play and color.

not only do these guys talk too much...and about other things than the game...with perez and kurkjian giggling like little girls...perez's laugh sounding like the character on the huckleberry hound cartoon show...but what really got to me was this scenario:

it was 6-3, bottom of the 9th, the home team yankees were trying to at least tie the game. i don't think these guys called one pitch. what did they talk about? THE T-SHIRTS THEY WERE GOING TO WEAR THE NEXT MORNING!

the game wasn't primary. it wasn't even secondary. the emphasis was on their lives and t-shirts. AND THIS WAS THE BOTTOM OF THE 9TH!

this happens all the time with announcers…

My complaint is why Espnu only features Alambama Football because they win a lot, but I feel their are other conferences that have great success stories. As customers watching and paying premium packages to watch Cable we should see a more variety of different conferences not just one specific team, which is out right unfair and showing favoritism.

Just like if one individual was given favoritism over the other in the workplace environment. I am disappointed with ESPN choices. I would like to hear a response back in this matter. Thank you, 4614 Chanting Circle SW Port Orchard WA. 98467

I'm 69 and have enjoyed ESPN programming since the 1st day you aired. I wish to SUGGEST a SOLUTION to the NATIONAL ANTHEM issue you have concerning the NFL games you air. As a USAF veteran, I love my country and the flag it represents when we play the Anthem. Having said this, my SUGGESTION is this: Play the Anthem and just focus a camera on the flag flying on a stadium pole...or the one the honor guard is holding! Don't pan the players or the crowd! Just feature the flag! I had trouble trying to find the proper method to offer my suggestion for consideration so I used this one...I hope it helps!

Thank You!

I'm a Navy Vet. Your decision to not play the National Anthem will have the following affect in my house. ESPN channels will be locked out on my televisions. ) might play on one of your channels. I did not watch one pro football game last year including the supper bowl, I found out I can live fine without it.

You made a very bad decision in regard to the National Anthem. Why didn't you just put your cameras on the flag and ignore the kneeling jokers on the field. At least then you would of gotten some of mine and other veterans viewing time for other sports. GOOD BYE.

Les Manning Veteran United States Navy

My father and some of my friends fathers fought and died under the flag which gives these thugs the freedoms they have today. Instead of being profusely gratefull, they sully that flag by turning their backs on her and complaining!

So, we’re wondering why they’re still here ignoring the wishes of the people who pay their salaries! Living in another country for a while would most likely have them begging to come home! You—and they, are self aggrandizing buffoons who don’t appreciate all they have!

So, we have a message for you—— If you can’t play-and respect- our anthem and our flag at game time don’t bother to show the game! We certainly have better uses for our time and money! And do remember—you reap what you sow, what goes round comes round and Karma’s a bitch! Shame!!!!

How dare you cut coverage of the National Anthem before NFL games. You are making the controversy about players taking a knee worse. This is nothing short of a coverup. You are cowards.

No National Athem . Poor magement. As a war veteran this hurts. When we honor this, it means freedom is honor. You'all enjoy it and I will bet those people on knees and your policy. It means also to honor war vets who gave all.

From day one in a free country. This does show what freedom means to ESPN, NOTHING. If you served you would change thoughts. You are only a leach. NASCAR considers this honor for the real meaning and remembers what it feels like to be free and with prayer.

Guess which one vets watch. The people who gave us free Country had balls and a vision. ESPN and NFL have no balls when your knees are on the ground. Meaning it represents being a WHORE. Lynn Reid

The announcers for the Red Sox , Yankee game didn't talk about the game. Too much giggling talking about themselves etc no play by play. It was like watching a talk show with a baseball game going on in the background.

Having A Rod in the booth at a Red Sox home game didn't help either. I was trying to watch it with 2 visually impaired people. They also thought it was very annoying. ALL of my friends throughout the country that watched it had the same complaint.

Espn customer "care" did not help me. They repeated there answers took a long time to get back to me then just completely ignored me. Wouldn't get someone that would or could help after I asked. Disney employees are extremely rude and disrespectful and I still have no answers.

Please pass on this email to appropriate department at ESPN Sports.

FYI Based on the new restrictions on players protesting during the National Anthem, my entire family and friends will for the first time in our history as NFL fans will not be watching the 2018 season. The banning of a great quarterback Kapernick and any other players from playing in the league is an insult to the fans and is clearly motivated by racism.

This turmoil has been exacerbated by Trump exposing his outright bigotry that is supported by some of the white fans, who are only interested in the slaves providing entertainment, but not interested in their message.

The owners are forgetting that 70%+ of the player in the NFL are Black and their fan base is also Black. As fans and players, we have been major…

As a sports fan I watch ESPN 99% of the time . And I’m tired of hearing host and guest bash and criticize our president . I did not realize your program was a platform to bash and criticize the president .

I thought your program was about sports and not a program to promote a polictical party . If this is what your program is then you have a obligation to announce this to the public . So at that time supporters of the president and a different party can boycott your program and not support espn and any employee .

While watching the cubs game - not only are the announcers not calling the game but we have to hear about the Mets and Yankees for about an hour - call the game .

Your coverage of Wimbledon is astoundingly frustrating. Its just bad. This has been happening through out. Your editors choose, over and over, to only cover the first boring games of every match INSTEAD of the LAST GAMES OF A LAST SET.

Right now I've been in hell as you don't cover ANY of the most epic Federer/Kevin Anderson match. Right now it is at 11 games all in the fifth set. And ESPN cuts away to this first set Nadal match. Watch this tape!!!

ESPN did not show ONE SECOND of the fed match until the FIFTH set games 2 all. AND it is almost never put on the big screen. It just SUCKS AND THERE IS NO WAY TO REACH OR GIVE FEEDBACK ANYWHERE.

NO CUSTOMER SERVICE, NO FORM TO WRITE IN - AND I PAY FO THIS CHANNEL!!!??? ESPN SUCKS. I'm calling tomorrow to get Tennis Channel or anything to not…

ESPN used to broadcast World Series of Poker all the time until the last 2 years. com and now they share the broadcast with them. Poker Go is not the website to be doing this: 1. Their website is not easy to navigate 2.

Their index is not good. 3. i do not know when they are broadcasting World Series of Poker FINAL TABLE or not and when. 4. Due to broadcast restrictions, this video is not available in your region. Please check your local listings for viewing information.

THIS WAS ON THEIR PAGE WHEN I CLICK ON LIVE BROADCAST FOR WSOP. 5. Nothing makes sense on what they are doing. You would think a multi million dollar business would be better than this. I could do better than what they are doing. 6.

the 2 guys they have moderating it are not good.

What is going on with your audio? Seems to be a problem as there is no audio at Wimbledon.

Whilst watching the Grand Prix in Austria, imagine my disgust when ESPN suddenly switched to LeBron James and Basketball, never retuning to the F1 race. I pre-record all the races (sometimes Spectrum manages to pick them up and sometimes not). My son has been involved in the manufacturing of F! cars since they were still at Lola Composites, along with Indy cars - and that has to be about 30 years. I couldn't care less about overpaid basketball players.

I've already complained once this season because the commenters had as much excitement in their voices as they would reading Goldilocks and the Bears. I can only hope ESPN does not get the contract for next year and that the rest of the season is recorded as scheduled.

BRING NEIL AND STAN BACK TO DO SPORTS CENTER IN THE MORNING. THE PEOPLE THAT YOU HAVE USED IN THE INTERIM SINCE THEY WERE PUT ON LATE NIGHT HAVE MADE THE QUALITY OF YOUR SHOW STEADILY DECLINE.

I was trying to watch the world series of poker 2018 last night. the hands were shown in such a small format that it was very difficult to tell what the players had. and of course a person could not read the amount bet nor the percentage of the chance for the winners. in previous years all of this could be seen and understood with no problems. this made for very poor viewing. in the end I had to change channels to watch something else. the picture was great and it showed the players very well. if only I had been able to read the text,

i did notice that several of you other shows had gone with this small text but i cannot give you any names.

thank you

Your baseball coverage - particularly tonight’s Cubs/Dodgers game - relies more on stories by your commentators rather than coverage of the game. When you brought in your anchor Neil for additional color - inane conversation ensued rather than talking about the game. Your on air folks would do well to listen to games broadcast by Vin Scully or Bob Costas - pros who know how to convey the excitement inherent in the game

We look forward to watching Dodger games wheneve they are televised. But your announcers spend more time talking about everything except what's happening on the field. We can deal with that by just turning down the volumn but when the camera is on the announcers so much of the time while the game is on we don't get to see the game or hear what's happening. They just seem to really enjoy talking about themselves...what's their favorite beach, what time the got to the stadium when they were playing, a book one of them is/has written. Just keep the camera on the field and we'll be very happy.

Thanks.
