24 people are hurting ESPORTS!

Seriously though, if they can get an entertaining, not-watered-down version or coverage of SC2 on ESPN2, then it will be AMAZING for ESPORTS. I hope we've learned from the mistakes of CPL and other failed ventures of the past enough so that we can finally give the right kind of coverage.

Voted "yes" because there was no option for "hell yes, a thousand times yes". If ESPN2 starts showing Starcraft, I may just keep my cable TV subscription around.

I'm all for exposure to the masses, but it has to be done right, so someone from within the community needs to guide them. I don't want some bullshit espn executive who allows people to talk shit about "nerds" and "dweebs" to be behind it, only to belittle our effforts to grow esports and have it taken down by someone who doesn't get it.

Honestly, no I probably wouldn't watch it on TV because I watch everything on my PC instead. I would, however, turn on my TV and leave the channel on mute while I watch it on my PC anyway, just to support the ratings. So in that case I voted yes.

TV doesn't work like the internet. Since there is no request for content, they don't know if you're tuning into the TV.

Besides, I stream internet content TO my TV what does that make me? LOL

I think it'd be cool. but I won't watch it even though i can. I just like being in front of the PC, reading LR threads, browsing websites and stuffs, and also being able to instantly queue a starcraft game if I get bored.

i'd rather have it stay on the intarwebs, who has a tv anyway.

the thing is, the TV is widespread but people who watch ALOT of TV are not the main interest group of us sc'ers.
so, really, it wouldn't do the game any. good everything can stay as it is

i cant remember which big community head said this argument that sc2 wouldn't work on tv (the one that all the naysayers are copy pasting in this topic)

it could very easily, but it could also suck.

it's just a matter of execution.
