ESPN Jumps to New Low
ESPN's soccer coverage in the US reached a new low today. The Champions League second leg between Milan and Barcelona isn't being shown on ESPN, instead they're bringing us the "US National Jump Rope Competition" where teams of four kids jump over a rope before a panel of judges. Pressing 'info' on my remote control revealed a further insult... it was the 2005 National Jump Rope competition. So, according to ESPN, last years Jump Rope competition is more important than this years Champions League Semi-Final.
