The Bronx is Burning
At first, I was completely against watching this since I am an avid Red Sox fan, and a Yankee hater, but this is really a good show.
Their casting is great too. Billy Martin, George, Reggie, Munson, and even Pinella are great casts. Has anyone else watched this show?

I fell asleep half way through the last one. ESPN2 is showing it right now. What do you think of the show?

My only gripe is that it's taking away from programming hours that I need!

I do think that ESPN has an east coast bias, but being a Sox fan, I don't think it's a big deal! It's a good series. By the way, how come I never see Sox games on ESPN, or ESPN 2? Do I have to put in a special request or something?

Re: The Bronx is Burning
I really don't like the fact they keep showing the Yanks beating the Sox. LOL.

MLB has the most ridiculous restrictions on what games we can and cannot show but I don't know why you wouldn't be able to see any Sox games on ESPN or ESPN2. You're out in New Mexico so it's not like it's market protected. It's possible we've reached our maximable allowable numbr of Red Sox games though. Not sure.

I thought you were in charge of all programming for ESPN2, not just Racing? Maybe ESPN should do some original programming with the 2004 red sox! They can call it, "The idiots are burning!"

Re: The Bronx is Burning
I think the show is OK. I really like Oliver Platt usually but his depicition of Steinbrenner just seems so silly. It is like a characticture of him. Now Tutturo(sp?) is dead on as Billy Martin.

Re: The Bronx is Burning
Yawn.
I'm sure it's probably good, I'm just sick and tired of the Yankees and I really hate living in NY where Yankees crap is in your face all the freaking time. What's next for ESPN, a Dallas Cowboys show? |
