Just not the channel I'd like to see it on... then again I also don't really care to see fishing on ESPN either, so whatever! I think there would be a massive public outroar against it, however. The same type of email could be sent to other channels - G4TV, Spike, etc. ESPN is just the one the original reddit guy started it with. | ||

You want to move monthly here from in front of tournament to in front of prize pool, this makes the reader associate the money as a recurring prize and inflates their mental sense of how big the tournament is. Also, this sentence is grammatically incorrect, the comma should be replaced with something else. A better sentence is something like this: The GOMTV Global Starcraft II League is the biggest example of a professional Starcraft 2 tournament. It is a tournament based in South Korea that has a bi-monthly prize pool of $170,000. That is a better lead-off to the rest of the description of the league. | ||

ESPN viewership is in the millions, and I doubt advertisers would be interested in promoting SC2. Lets be happy with our little corner of the internet and help ensure that it stays alive for years to come. Expanding our E-Sports universe is going to take baby steps not giant leaps of faith. They broadcast the national spelling bee so yeah that might have some interest in niche gaming. | ||

One thing that I thought of while reading this post is that it doesn't necessarily need to be broadcast on any of ESPN's cable channels. ESPN has espn3.com which shows some of the wackiest shit ever. Lots of football, Cricket, Canadian handegg, you name it. That might be a better avenue even if ESPN coverage is a longshot. Even restreams could fly. Food for thought. | ||
