So, I'm sitting in my room channel surfing, bored out of my gourd, and i click past ESPN2. I don't see chisled athletes and jocks and the usual sports shows. No...I see skinny pale little 8th graders behind a podium. Then it hits me....I'm watching a math competition on ESPN. These little tykes are answering paragraph long math queries before i can even read them from the screen.

I know that says june 3rd but it was closest to the top on google, so bite me

Dono if theyre showing it again, but if they are, i suggest you watch and be amazed by these kids......if not for that, then simply watch and wait for the moment where the announcer calls them "Mathletes" and laugh your ass off.

the stuff they show on ESPN2 never ceases to amaze me ... I'll be cruisin the channels, lookin for a ballgame (all I watch when I have access to a TV) ... nope, no baseball, but there's always World Series of Poker or some freaking Purina Dog Show or perhaps Billards on.

ESPN 8 - THE OCHO! :D
