The commentators for the Knick-76 game

The commentators for the Knock-76er game on Wednesday Jan15 reached a new low in quality, clarity and just plain understanding of the game. I had to kee[p turning off the sound when I realized they did not know the players, did not follow what was going on, did not use proper English and did not seem interested in the game.
Please try to have more competent people describing the basketball games in the future. The players deserve better. Tune in to MSG for professional coverage.

ESPN+ is terrible

ESPN+ is terrible! The streaming quits every couple of minutes and I have to back out and re-select the game. The streaming quality is marginally OK, if the game would stay on the screen for more than a minute or two. A terrible service. Not worth the price. ANY price!

Garbage

I've had the ESPN app for about 4 years now through my Verizon account. Every time I try to watch a good game it always says ( user not authorized). Sometimes it let's me watch that second rate hometown call but it is so annoying. It does it on my TV and my phone. They need to do some serious work on their app. If it wasn't for Verizon letting me have it through my subscription with them I surely wouldn't pay for it.

ESPN should change their motto to the worldwide leader in RACE BAITING.... They just can't stop. Even after Marcus Freeman made it clear he doesn't care about being the first black head coach to possibly win a national championship, they're still pushing the narrative. Now however, he can possibly be the first half Korean coach as well. The bullcrap Sideline interviews during games is ridiculous too. I'm about done with sports altogether at this point...

ESPN IS GARBAGE

I would give ESPN a lower rating if I could. Over priced garbage sports channels. I don’t understand why ESPN can’t do a better job for what they charge.

ESPN college football playoffs

I'm stuck watching the college football playoffs on ESPN. Poor commentary, camera work less than acceptable, split screen and extraneous crap they put up annoying. Hard to believe ESPN is a sports network. Maybe they shouldn't be. And now these commie America haters cut out Notre Dame running on the field with the American flag. Shameful.

ESPN can't stand America…

I can't believe ESPN wouldn't show the national anthem being played, or in the case of the Sugar Bowl, the moment of silence for fellow Americans who lost their lives in a terrorist atack, or Notre Dame running on the field carrying an American flag!! They claim it's a timing issue. How stupid, THEY control the timing. THEY just decided not to show it! If you don't like America, then LEAVE, and take your Socialistic agenda with you!

Watching the football quarterfinals too…

Watching the football quarterfinals too much crap on the bottom of the screen he can’t see the whole game! And then on the right side, you have a small replay screen you don’t have the yellow line for the first down marker. I only watched it because this was the only place to watch the college quarterfinal football games And ESPN sucks. I will never subscribe to it unless you make some big changes. I tried it again last year same results crappy picture for games so I got rid of it. I got it again this year just for these quarterfinal football games. Nothing changed. Sucks big time. Be taking it off my Directv tomorrow. You can bet on that! If you’re thinking about getting it think twice! The referee starts to talk about the penalties and what happened and they break to a commercial never seen any other network do that!

Disney rip off at its finest!

I recently signed up for the Hulu/Disney+ package with espn+. I was hoping to watch the OSU vs Oregon game. I found that the game was only on ESPN not Plus. This is a complete Mickey Mouse rip off!! A complete bait and switch work up.

I bought the monthly plan for 11.99 through Amazon prime. I watched 1 game and the next 2 games were in Blackout. I could watch other games though but not what I wanted. I don't recommend it for Hockey at all.
