not sure if anyone else realized this but fox sports 1 just debuted this week

in short, it aims to compete with espn with their own brand of sportscenter.

The main anchors are the two guys from TSN, the canadian ESPN. I dont know their names but I have seen them on many youtube videos. They also have erin andrews, charissa thompson from espns first take, regis philbin, donovan mcnabb, andy roddick, and gary payton

they kind of have a roundtable type thing going on with thompson as the host and mcnabb, payton and roddick commenting on different topics. philbin has his own show on the channel.

kinda a mixed group of the biggest names they could find. mike tyson was on a lot but im not sure he is going to be regular. fox sports 1 (and 2) have contracts with nascar and the UFC which in my opinion bodes very well for them. plus fox has the right to NFC football games, mlb post season games and a TON of college football and basketball games.

didnt know if anyone else saw but its interesting to see someone make a legit push to compete with the titan that is ESPN. I think its partly why espn ust re-hired keith olbermann who many ppl thought burned his bridges years ago.

Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole. Were the best part of TSN. Im kind of hoping they tank on Fox just out of spite for them leaving
