WHY? was is the point anymore and why is it on sports channels? Ok its was hot for about a month and now its just annoying. I go on [ESPN.com](http://ESPN.com) to try to find info on the Arena football player that died, God bless him, and they have everything but that story including POKER news!!! Its laughable that it was even put on the sports channels in the first place. I’m down for ESPN 2’s occasional pool tourney and an arm wrestling match but POKER?

i agree… but a lot of sports are bullshit… and yes, i did just equate playing cards as being a sport.

fuck TV channels.

I know they have celebrity poker on some channel, can’t think of it right now. I never turn to any channel playing poker, just not very exciting to watch. Might as well watch my half-dead grass grow.

i’m tired of poker on tv too…its everywhere they are even gonna have celeb poker on speed channel with pro drivers…who cares

i’m tired of that & I’m tired of it seeming like 80% of speed channels is Nascar racing & news.

& you can throw in home shows some are goo but i’m just getting tired of them, and they are popping up everywhere, homemakeover, trading spaces, design on a dime, cleansweep, while your were out etc… seems like its getting out of hand.
