Program History
ESPNews Pregame replaced 4 Qtrs (also anchored by Lloyd) in the 7pm ET timeslot. On July 21, 2008, this program expanded to two hours as it moved up an hour to the 6pm ET timeslot, replacing the re-airings of Around the Horn and Pardon the Interruption (both of which moved to sister channel ESPN2 in the same timeslot). In addition to the expansion of the current two-hour format, ESPNews Pregame has switched to a dual-anchor format as well, just like most of the network's other programs, such as The Hot List and Gametime. The show had its series finale on January 2, 2009 as ESPNews reverted back to half-hour blocks of sports news throughout the day beginning January 5, 2009.

“When the Revolutionaries ran short of gun wadding the Rev. James Caldwell ... broke open the church doors and seized an armful of Watts’ hymnbooks. The preacher threw them to the soldiers and shouted, “Give ‘em Watts, boys—give ‘em Watts!””
—For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“When the coherence of the parts of a stone, or even that composition of parts which renders it extended; when these familiar objects, I say, are so inexplicable, and contain circumstances so repugnant and contradictory; with what assurance can we decide concerning the origin of worlds, or trace their history from eternity to eternity?”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
