29 Intense ESPN Innovations

From Sports-Reporting Pitchmen to Athletic Movie Recreations

— January 20, 2012 — Lifestyle
Dubbed 'The Worldwide Leader in Sports', it only makes sense that the amount of ESPN innovations out there are multiplying faster than Usain Bolt can round a track.

The Entertainment and Sports Programming Network is inarguably the go-to station for all things athletic since 1979, and has gone on to spawn sister channels, magazines, and radio shows. The iconic bright-red and block-lettered logo can be spotted at almost every sports-related event and employs a bevy of famous athletes as current on-screen personalities. From creative commercial campaigns to recognized reporter controversies, the network is constant slam dunks and scores that defeat the competition.

The up-to-date exclusives and excitement omnipresent in each ESPN innovation is what makes the athletic acronym the only four combined letters to spring from any true sports-lovers tongue.
