SportsCenter

SportsCenter is a sports news television show shown every day on ESPN since the network was founded in 1979. Originally a once a day show, SportsCenter is now shown up to six times a day, replaying the day's scores and highlights from major sporting events. As a result of the regular airing, it has now been shown more times than any other show in American television.

SportsCenter news anchors include Dan Patrick, Stuart Scott, Aaron Boyer, and Linda Cohn. In the past, it also included among others, Craig Kilborn, Robin Roberts, Keith Olbermann, Charlie Steiner, Karie Ross, Rich Eisen, and the late Tom Mees, who died unexpectedly during a swimming accident in 1996. Chris Berman, who has been with the network since October 1979, occasionally makes appearances on the program.

SportsCenter aired its 25,000th episode on August 25, 2002, and its 20,000th coincidentally aired on the same day David Wells pitched his perfect game for the New York Yankees against the Minnesota Twins: May 17, 1998. SportsCenter began broadcasting in high definition on June 7, 2004.

In 1994, ESPN began the This is SportsCenter ad campaign, to promote their show.
