Part of me likes the competition for EPL broadcasting rights and the potential to have more soccer available - the rising tide that lifts all boats.
 
But, part of me simply shivers at the thought of ESPN branding EPL in the ESPN fashion as another "ESPN property" - the endless cross promotions, needless and gratuitous graphics, silly over-analysis and over exposure of non-stories and psuedo-star IMG manufactured personalities, and all the usual droning hype at the expense of, and frankly in deference to, the game. ESPN is to sports as MTV is to music: continually drowning itself towards the lowest common denominator.
