    Don't know her, Steele is annoying but probably replaced by another annoying mindless sports anchor.

    Ahhh ESPN.

    Let's hope anything can help with the dwindling ratings. Plastering Beadle over Countdown won't help.

    Who cares?

    Basketball has become a suburban game anyway.

    It's sub-Urbanization, which means "worse than urbanization."

    Michelle Beadle is an idiot, but so are most of the viewers so it's all copacetic.

    ESPN is forcing out anyone who doesn't have a left-of-center worldview

    If they could only replace those Lil Jon commercials with... anything. Dat feel when you leave the TV on ESPN and get woken up hungover to that, and have to try your hardest not to throw your remote through the TV.

    besides the obvious spurs bias that everyone around here hates, beadle is a better personality than steele IMO
