I'm already surprised they're now talking about position using terms like UTG+1. Even some journalists of poker press didn't use those acronyms because they were afraid a big percentage of their audience wouldn't know what they meant. So, I think ESPN wants to introduce these things that would interest us, but they have to do it slowly so the casual fans aren't overwhelmed. These year they introduced position, soon everyone will be know what the hijack seat is and then they introduce something else. It's like ESPN is educating the casual fans.

One thing I really don't like is that bull segment where Norman Chad tries to read a player's hand. That's an awesome concept when you have someone who knows what he's doing on the microphone. What Chad does is ridiculous. Instead of putting a player on a range of hands and then narrow it down as the action takes place, he puts a player on a specific hand after his first action pre-flop and then assumes that's the hand the player has throughout the hand, even after it's clearly obvious by his actions that he couldn't have that hand. He even goes as far as criticizing the way the player is playing the hand he "supposedly" has. That's just stupid and the whole idea seems pointless if that's the way they're going to do it.
