What are the best and worst networks to watch sports on?
FOX sucks IMO.

Their telecast of the Orange Bowl was an absolute joke. Their volume is always lower than any other station and they hire idiots to do the broadcasts.

ESPN/ABC is still the best hands down. Their HD feed is the cleanest and their camera angles are the best in the business

Because they have locked in the best sports for big bucks.

NFL, MLB playoffs, and the BCS

You HAVE to watch FOX for the big games which equals the ratings

The Regional Fox Sports Networks seem to have shitty cameras and but do offer lot of games. I always imo nobody can **** with fox/cbs for football. NBA on TNT is nice too

I thought it was just the feed we were getting from the cable company for FOX. It looks like you guys have picture and sound problems also. The picture and sound here
