Well, when Tiger's 10 shots back I'd like to see the leaders.

I don't want my baseball game cut into because Barroid is having an at bat.

If Gordon's running 22nd and falling back and my guy is moving up, I'd like to see my guy.

If Jeter makes a good defensive play I'd love to see it, instead of the routine plays that the media says are amazing.

Duke and UNC just have to bite me, along with Billy Packer (actually Packer can run his nose up the crack of my ass)

Last year at the Master's while Phil was making his run they showed very little of Mr. Woods. I generally don't see Tiger on tv much the final day unless he's lurking around the leaderboard or making some ridiculous shot.

Everytime the baseball games are cut into it's due to some historic "moment" that barry is chasing, I agree, it sucks because I dislike him as well (not because of the media thing however) but it is history in the making

Jeff Gordan - Can't comment I can't stand nascar

Jeter - The man makes some ridiculous plays and they haven't shown as much of him in recent years due to his lack of productivity, everytime I have caught him on sportscenter its been well worth the highlight

Duke and Unc - face it..these are two of the top two programs in NCAA history and have quite a draw, I don't know if you watched the games this year (regular season) but the one at Duke was incredible.

I do understand where you are coming from, in the fact that the media overhypes star atheletes, but I generally think it's because it's what people want to see...stars. I would much rather watch Tiger, Phil, Vijay etc. shoot 2 over, than watch Len Mattiace fire a 68. Something is just sweet when you see stars fail, and on the flip side it's always awesome to watch a dominate performance. (in my book)
