What the hell is ESPN Alternate for?

If my memory isn’t as fucked up as ESPN – when the pope dies the MLS season opener will be shown on ESPN Alternate. You know because 24 hours/day news coverage is required for the death of a pope.

So earlier this week I go to tune in the MLS game of the week only to find a college baseball game in the 12th inning. No prob – switch over to ESPN Alternate – but there is nothing there.

So it makes me wonder WHAT THE FUCK IS ESPN ALTERNATE FOR?

Really – what criteria have to be met in order for them to show something on ESPN Alternate? I want to know.
