Dr Bob featured on ESPN2 "E60"

[Gordon Scott]

The Moneymaker reruns in year one did more for mid week TV ratings than anything in the history of sports TV. We (the poker playing community) reaped major benefits but what gets overlooked is that ESPN was the real winner.

IMO adding a CFB game every other night has helped fill the void as the TV poker craze fizzles but how much Southern Miss can the average sports fan really take.

Who would be surprised if ESPN used this Dr. Bob story just to prop up the midweek ratings. Let’s face it the average sports betting noob is near busted by week 7 and could care less about watching mediocre football unless they can beat the spread.
