How stupid is ESPN for tape delaying this thing 4 days? We now know who won all the awards and now there is no reason to watch what has truly been an unwatchable show to begin with.

I just edited the title to warn people to not look if they are waiting for show. We posted at the same time.

How can Roddick and Serena win? What about Federer and Henin?? Too many morons voting, or was it rigged???

 

[red007]

it was 100 percent fans voting this year.
that is why roddick and serena won.

 

[Redneckman]

Could have had a great price on Roddick too at Oly. I can't believe Miracle won best movie, I had a good price on Seabiscuit I thought.

If Chris Berman is involved in something, it's going to suck.

 

[Mr NJ Sports]

Best WNBA player? ...those three words are in the dictionary next to OXYMORON

Manning can't do anything but get to a Super Bowl now to improve.

I used to love this ESPY awards show...what's it been, about 8-10 years now that they've had it?
When they moved it to the day after the All-Star game, I thought it was perfect since there are no other sports that day. So what does ESPN do? They tape delay it 5 days!!!! I won't even watch a 3 hr tape delay for the pacific time zone which happens occasionally, so I sure as hell am not going to watch this. And Sunday night they will have to pre-empt live baseball to show a 5 day old show. UFB!!!
