Template:ESPYs

There is a discussion about the use of {{ESPYs}} at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Sports#Template:ESPYs.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:32, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

THis a compliant about the way you cover ESPN basketball college games, specifically the ACC tournament. the background noise is so loud, you can't hear the announcers commentary, true they rarely talk about what is actually happening, or how many fouls a player has, or how many total fouls a player has. Occasionally it would be nice to hear what informant they might care to share that pertains to the game. Turn off the background noise, it takes away from the game and adds NOTHINg to it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.88.137.171 (talk) 22:04, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

-Why is the page for "Usher" - who is just a singer - festooned with warnings about lack of Neutral POV and "reading like a promotional piece", while the page for one of the most influential corporations in the world has no controversy or negative statments at all ???
