Its amazing all the TV sports available to us nowadays.
Back in the day when ESPN was launched (yes, I am that old and remember when they first started), they were known for their off-beat, we-must-fill-all-time-slots-with-something-programming. It was not uncommon to see horseshoes, chick volleyball, ping pong, billiards and other assorted, "What the f*** kind of supposed sport are they showing now?" things on their airwaves.
But this new, sudden fascination with poker and putting it on TV has gone too far.
I can't take it anymore.
I don't want to see poker on TV. I mean, I can handle playing it once or twice a year with the fellas, when you all pony up to buy the big fight on Pay-Per-View, but to sit down and actually watch a freakin' card game on TV? No effin' way.
I'm holding out for "Go Fish", "Crazy 8's", or "Uno".
Now that sh*t would make for some fine "sports" programming.
