That freaking news line scrolling across the bottom of the screen CONSTANTLY is a major distration. How the hell is anyone supposed to concentrate on what's going on on the court? Buy another station for news only, will you, and leave the sport in some kind of watchable format...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-20512963014911654832008-05-13T23:36:00.000-04:002008-05-13T23:36:00.000-04:00As a big tennis fan who has watched so much US Ope...As a big tennis fan who has watched so much US Open coverage on USA the past 12 years since I was 10 years old, it is a little bit sad to see the US Open leaving USA. USA's coverage has been outstanding and it will take some getting used to to watch the Open without the duo of John McEnroe and Ted Robinson. It was also nice that the US Open was apart from the ESPN-ization that occurs these days Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-15375398272867229682008-05-13T11:42:00.000-04:002008-05-13T11:42:00.000-04:00ESPN needs to get McEnroe and Mary Carrillo under ...ESPN needs to get McEnroe and Mary Carrillo under contract.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-50501246936819710842008-05-12T21:58:00.000-04:002008-05-12T21:58:00.000-04:00From what I've read, this was mostly USA's call; t...From what I've read, this was mostly USA's call; they want to get out of the sports business.Morgan Wickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09816659818434590943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-48345204786621945412008-05-12T20:26:00.000-04:002008-05-12T20:26:00.000-04:00I completely agree with Dan.
