What's SAS consensus on Little League World Series coverage?

I personally find it really obnoxious and annoying.

I recall once being really annoyed it once overshadowed the opening week of college football once.

If Gary Thorne is calling it, I am watching it no matter what sport it is.

MLB did the same thing 2 years ago to the Yankees and Mets by not allowing them to wear NYPD/FDNY caps 10 years after 9/11, and Olbermann ripped them a new rear end in a top hat then as well.

That's a big reason why the camo and America gently caress yeah caps are pretty nauseating to me.

E: Figures that I type that before watching the video.

I miss him doing hockey, but does Gary Thorne ever do football? I know he does baseball and Little League

He's done a few college bowl games for ESPN. Probably the most notable one was the '05 Capital One Bowl with Iowa's last second TD.

And I miss the hell out of him calling hockey, even though I love Doc.

ESPN can never regain my favor until they put roller beach hockey back on at midnight on ESPN2

it's blacked out in the Indianapolis area entirely, yes

The Brickyard 400 used to be as well before NBC began covering it in the early 2000s. Didn't hurt attendance at all once the blackout was lifted, and attendance only plummeted after the 2008 shitfest.

drag racing commentator Steve Evans once heard of a woman's hair catching on fire at an event and offered money to have her run down the track

RIP Steve
