Okay I have written many complaints to ESPN who refuse to budge . all they show is soccer and cricket. and this really hurts a young girl who is an ardent fan of tennis and skating and gymnastics and what not. I know i'm weird but thats it.
hey! I am not saying that I hate cricket cause if I did I would have been thrown out of my country and never would have loved my role model ''Jonty Rhodes''. At the same time I have to love football if I ever dream of meeting ''Vieri'' and hook up with handsome Italian men. But the fact is now a days my crush is Marat Safin and like millions if you dont know him he is actually a russian tennis player who brought his country pride and prestige by winning them the davis cup (if you know what I mean)
ESPN I know india is a market and for that market you have to appeal to the audiences and for that you obviously have to show what they like - to sum it up we like cricket (Agreed) but unless you do not expose other sports how do you expect people to like them . unless you show how handsome and good looking marat Safin (& obviously a fabulous tennis player that's obvious) is to people how do you expect people to watch tennis.
Rupert Murdoch's son (gosh only if I could remember his name , he is handsome ) we want some more sports . okay people will write hey they do show other sports and will come up with bunch of sports like basketball , NHL, golf and what not but the point is the prime time is taken away with live coverage of cricket / cricket / cricket and once in a while football, where also we get to see the crappy english premier league rather than the spicy and hot spanish Premier Liga and impressive Italian Serie A.
okay enough of criticism . I guess I have to end on an objective note . so i'll half heartedly say ESPN RULES! after all the south africa vs sri lanka is on , now reading this I dont want them to shut that off and lose on all my jonty !!!! do i????????
okay I know my sports evalutaion is based more on looks but jeez who would not fall for a guy whose wearing shots and sweating (lol)
