Robbie, is it hubris or do they just enjoy sticking it to the West Coast folks? BTW, the game was 29-5 when I turned it off.

I'm very far away from the television programming decision makers (I don't know that I've even met any), but as you are no doubt aware, the UConn campus is very close to ESPN headquarters, and there is institutional bias.

As much as we may love it, and as far-reaching as its accomplishments are, Stanford is not a name that draws viewers, nor sponsors. Sorry to say.

But  the feedback does not fall on deaf ears. I know the lead editor that I work with reads every message sent to ESPN Mobile, and forwards the ones on to me that are products that I work on.
