New Discovery for ESPN

It would seem from ESPN's coverage that The Arena Football League and NASCAR were just founded. For years ESPN only gave a crawl of the five top place finishers each Sunday Night on Sportscenter, and unless someone died in a race, NASCAR did not exist until ESPN became a broadcast sponsor and now they have a daily show called NASCAR NOW.

Arena Football didn't even get crawl status until games started being broadcast on ESPN. Now we get Monday Night Arena Action and a 24/7 crawl of the scores and highlights. My prediction is that Cricket will be the next discovery ESPN makes.
