Ok look.. CNN Asia is crappy. Worse than CNN Europe. You get virtually US coverage. In Japan at least they show a lot more US stuff except its all dubbed in Japanese which makes it useless. In the rest of Asia, you get CNN in English except its all about international crap whcih I don't care about.

Then what.. ESPN. They show golf.. ping pong.. YAY ok. Geez There's freaking bowl games going on and the only resource I have is refreshing Yahoo sports? I'm sure even basketball is more important than golf or ping pong, so why dont you at least show some freaking bball games. Same with STAR Sports. I see their stupid commercials and they show college football and football in clips and tons of basketball and I see virtuall no basketball and obviously no football at all. This is disgusting. If they don't show the Rose Bowl, I'll kill someone... This is unacceptable.

Thank goodness I was home on 12/22 for the Cal vs BYU game. I <3 ESPN in the US.

well I'm sure any decent game like the Insight Bowl, Sun Bowl, Peach Bowl, and all the BCS bowls are far more exciting than ping pong/golf/badminton.....

I guess... I used to hate college games before I got in. ESPECIALLY college bball and march madness becuase it would take away the ability for me to watch Warriors games. College football talk annoyed me because I cared more about MLB and playoffs and world series then. Now I'm willing to sacrifice a few games of baseball spend more time on college games... I still dislike college bball though.. NBA FTW! On the other hand I like NCAAF a lot more than NFL...

Not for me. I like watching professional ping pongers too, they're amazing.

Oh they are.. I do watch ping pong on ESPN if they show it in the US because that's when nothing else is going on. I would prefer that they show something like bowl games when they're going on rather than ping pong... Gee. Even in Japan they showed some US football.. but I guess not in the rest of Asia. =(

Don't worry... the BCS bowls aren't on ESPN anyway.
