Right after the step show broadcast, perhaps they can switch to live coverage of me shopping for Christmas presents.

Sounds like something ESPN should have put on "The Ocho."

Wow, ESPN2 has quite the sporting smorgasbord that day...
College basketball, followed by World Sumo Challenge, then college women's volleyball, Ultimate Arm Wrestling III, 2004 World's Stongest Man competition, and wrapping up the evening with the World Paintball Championships.
Greek events like Derby Days, Anchor Splash and various dance marathons might have a chance at getting broadcast time!

I'd watch other school's step shows, intramural dodgeball games, and a few parties if they were aired on ESPN U late at night. I'll be honest, greek life in the cities is fun, but I usually knew what to expect and recognized people at every single function. I'd love to have a spectator's view of a flag football game between two rival fraternities at a completely different school that I haven't traveled to yet. ESPN would do a better job than most channels(MTV specifically) at keeping the programming objective and inspiring.

ESPN isn't objective at all. Did anyone see the "best college football team ever" thing last night? The panel was composed of like 2 PAC 10 guys, 4 Big 10 guys and 2 Big East guys.
If MTV ever did a show about a traditional southern fraternity (wouldn't happen) it would probably make international news.

When those are considered interesting or remotely "skill based" as far as random people are concerned, you might see them. 
Over the past years, stepping is less viewed by mainstream as a "Greek event" and more a form of entertainment that anyone can participate in (regardless if they can actually step or not).
I wouldn't watch a televised competition but I guess this isn't too crazy if those cheerleader competitions are aired. I love watching cheerleader competitions so maybe I can love watching these stepshows. I'll have to watch it from a noncritical and more mainstream POV, I guess.

Remember that the real name of ESPN is the Entertainment, Sports Programming Network.
We can leave it at that.
However, I think it might be fun to watch a step show on TV.
