Puhonix Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 so sont watch it. I was humbled by the story of the two men that won the Arthur Ashe award. Where's their MVP? Where's Championship? Don't be an idiot and watch something before you bash it.

gmac17 Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 The whole idea of an espy seems just a big marketing thing. You mean a tv network that names an award after themselves have marketing reasons behind it?

The whole idea of an espy seems just a big marketing thing. and one more thing, DESTINY'S CHILD??? give me a friggin break! 383884[/snapback] The whole idea of the Espys IS marketing. It's pop culture's answer to MVP awards and such, just the same as MTv awards are pop culture's answer to the Oscars, Emmys, Grammys, etc. So if you don't want to watch them...fine. Neither do I, as a matter of fact. But if you want to pretend you've achieved some sort of enlightment by "discovering" that the Espys are shallow, pop-culture driven, ultimately hollow excuses for awards...fine, keep pretending, I think it's hilarious.
