    ESPN promotes their product. If you are aired on one of their channels, they will draw more attention to try and get higher ratings. Their not into talking up their competitors product.

    But they are also journalists. At least, supposedly.

    To say they are journalists is optimistic at best. They report crap. If it's on the internet then it's good enough for ESPiN. I have seen them do ZERO research on alot of their stories (not just OSU stories) and report them as news. Case in point: how they handled the "death threats" that a recruit from TTUN got for burning that letter or the Bernie Fine case. I do take issue with some of the posters on here saying that OSU is not a product that ESPiN sells. Hasn't every game that is not on B1G network been on ESPiN or ABC?? Just because their talking heads don't like to mention OSU doesn't mean that ESPiN as a network has an agenda. They just want to be to be a reality TV show with all their BS like Bayless and Stephen A.

    Yeah, I said it.

    I stopped watching ESPN about 3 years ago. I will not watch that channel unless OSU is playing and I can't get it anywhere else. Life has been good.

    Amen to that I did the same thing about 2 years ago. I watch PTI or Ohio State that's it.

    If you want insight into why ESPiN sucks so much read the book, " Those guys have all the fun" about the founding and growth of the network. The book implies everything there is biased and about money. If they can't get a piece of the pie, it doesn't exist to them till they can.

    I'm making this up as I go along.
