None of these people are employed by Alabama, so the OP was not right. This is an ESPN issue, not a "mighty Alabama" issue.



I feel like we have repeated this phrase to them at least 15 times, but they ignore it every time. If ESPN felt that there were enough viewers of an Alabama/LSU Thursday night baseball game, they would bring more cameras and more staff. However, they are in the business of trying to make a profit. Spending top dollar to broadcast a game with horrible ratings is not in the best interests of ESPN.

I'm a LSU fan and I agree with this. You have to forgive most of them. LSU fans think that just because THEY care about college baseball, the rest of the country does as well, or at they should. The reality is that very people give a shite about college baseball. Certainly not enough to justify large production value for each and every game. The fact that the game was available on any type of visual medium is a huge thing in and of itself.
