ESPN’s The Sports Reporters Live Scoring Game Rules
Posted on | June 29, 2008 | 2 Comments
ESPN’s The Sports Reporters Live Scoring Game. This is a new Sunday Feature on NESW Sports. I will do the scoring for The Sports Reporters Show. It comes on Sunday mornings on ESPN. I will continue to do this every Sunday and will keep an all time tally sheet.
These are the rules.
- There are always 4 players. They are all sports writers and one of them is the mediator.
- I will give points based on how the panelists do during the segments.
The segments are the conversations they have inbetween commercials. It is hardest for the mediator to win, but it is possible. - I give out the points and I will be very tough on them.
Scoring Rules
- You can get a bonus point for having a the best opening line. Sometimes a lot of truth can be jammed into a short comment. If there is not a great opener, the opening bonus point is forfeited.
- You get 2 points for winning a segment. There are usually 3 segments unless there are quite a few stories. If there are multiple conversations during one segment, there will still be a single winner. You can get a negative point in a segment for any number of faults that are completely arbitrary to my judgement.
- At the end of the show there are “parting shots“. The winner of this round gets 3 points. The mediator has a chance of winning because they usually get the longest parting shot, and it is usually the only thing they bring to the plate.
