ESPN2 is going nuts on the footage from the 2010 WSOP Main Event. They run the same 6 shows over and over and it's gonna be another month before the final table begins. I really must say that this 3 month "TV Time-out" is so silly. You all were so mad when college and pro basketball gave the tv producers time-outs for commericial breaks back in the late 1970's. In 2006 they ask and get a THREE MONTH TIME-OUT in the richest game in all of professional sports. They don't even put up the purse or any sort of prize. They can't be happy keeping the final table video in a dark vault somewhere, they stop the action while they check to see how the viewership will be this summer. Guess what, we will watch, let the men play the game with out this unheard of delay. Poker pros - do you have a spine? Did ESPN give you all each a million to let them set this sort of precedent? Where is your pride? Where is your outrage? This is YOUR Championship Event! Take it back! -- I don't know, but that's what I think - - RVB - - Final table action is getting close.

Poker pros – do you have a spine? Did ESPN give you all each a million to let them set this sort of precedent? Where is your pride? Where is your outrage? This is YOUR Championship Event! Take it back!
