''SportsCenter'' is a daily sports news television program that serves as the flagship program of American cable and satellite television network ESPN. Originally broadcast only once per day, ''SportsCenter'' now has up to twelve airings each day; the program features highlights and updates, and reviews scores from the day's (or depending on the airtime, the previous day's) major sporting events, along with commentary, analysis previewing upcoming games, feature segments, and news stories from around the sports world. Since it premiered upon the network's launch on September 7, 1979, the show has aired more than 50,000 unique episodes, more than any other program on American television; ''SportsCenter'' is broadcast from ESPN's studio facilities in Bristol, Connecticut and Los Angeles, California. In addition to airing simulcasts or network-exclusive editions on sister networks ESPN2 and ESPNews, the program also produces short in-game updates during sports events aired on ABC as well as an interstitial play countdown segment for fellow sister network Disney XD. ==Overview and format== ''SportsCenter'' airs live each weekday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., 6:00 p.m., 11:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. Eastern Time (with the early-evening broadcast typically running for 60 or 90 minutes, and the late editions typically running 60 minutes each). The 1:00 a.m. edition is often repeated at 2:00 a.m. and again from 5:00 to 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. On Sundays, an hour-long episode airs at 8:00 a.m. Eastern, with another edition of varying length airing at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time; the 11:00 p.m. (Eastern) edition airs for 90 minutes on Sundays and is repeated throughout the night. In the event of live sports coverage on the network, the program is occasionally delayed or moved to either ESPN2 or ESPNews (depending on whether one of the networks is carrying an event) until the event concludes. The program also is known to start early and run long, if the preceding game ends ahead of schedule or if breaking news warrants. Since 2009, the 1:00 a.m. Eastern edition of ''SportsCenter'' has been produced live from Los Angeles; that edition also is repeated during the overnight hours. ESPN also produces short 90-second capsules known as the ''SportsCenter Update'', which air at select points within game telecasts on the network and sister broadcast network ABC to provide updates of other ongoing and recently concluded sporting events. In addition to providing game highlights and news from the day in sports outside of the scheduled slate of games (including team player and management transactions, injury reports and other news), the program also features live reports from sites of sports events scheduled to be held or already concluded, extensive analysis of completed and upcoming sports events from sport-specfic analysts and special contributors, and feature segments providing interviews with players, coaches and franchise management in the headlines. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SportsCenter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
