I grew up a major hockey fan, but I have to say I enjoyed watching women's college softball games on ESPN and ESPN2 this year a lot more than I enjoyed watching their NHL coverage in seasons past. Of course, it's not that fun watching hockey when you have to try to find the puck on a TV screen that has the entire bottom strip constantly covered by scores and news of other sports. And ESPN's hockey announcers were never my favorites.
