Andy Weise says: >If we all send our comments to ESPN, things will be better in time. >I would suggest no flaming or blasting the commentary, as we're lucky >to get it, period. Not to mention that we've been screaming at ESPN >to cover hockey for years, anyway. You got it. Tell them we're watching, gently point out the commentating slips, but try to avoid knee-jerk E$PN-bashing. If we bawl them out every time a commentator says something dumb but fairly innocent, it'll dull the impact when we complain about something truly outrageous, like the tape-delayed game-winning goal (1995) or the insulting "appetizer" comment (1996). And at least they've never done anything like M$C's pep-rally pre-emption in last year's regionals.
