instead of USC in a quick segment about surprise undefeated teams. It was only one highlight in the span of several with about 30 seconds of highlights devoted to USC. But they showed SC State playing at Syracuse during the brief section that was dedicated to USC. Had to rewind to make sure they actually did that.

Sorry I don't have a link. Saw it live on TV

Pretty egregious error in my opinion.

Eh.. easy mistake to make when you just have someone do a quick google search for highlights to throw up before you get back to talking about whatever political narrative you are driving that day.

Seriously ESPN has become unwatchable these days. No escape from politics or narratives at all.

But thats not what ESPN does. They have software to search for clips plus their entire existence is based on providing accurate highlights.

Yea you're right about that. You'd think the way they're hemorrhaging money Disney would do more than cut costs but it seems they have doubled down on their narratives. It was disappointing to not see more backlash towards Kaepernick and his support of Castro following Castro's death

I was being tongue and cheek about the amount of resouces they actually spend on sports versus their neo-political agenda bullshite.

I've become numb to this kind of stuff.

We just aren't respected or known. It is what it is, so lets change it.

I didn't bring it up, but last week the NCAA's website said SC State's RPI was #30, when in fact they meant to say us.

I think everyone is surprises by our rise to shootyhoops prominence.
