ESPN enters the 1990s

A few days ago, Gelf poked fun at ESPN's plan to feature home-video clips on SportsCenter. What sort of videos would they receive, we wondered, if they only allowed old-school VHS tapes to be submitted? (Deadspin also got in on the fun with a post featuring a Bob Saget stamp.) Now, the folks over at ESPN seem to have realized their mistake.

The SportsCenter clarion call for home videos now includes a request for CDs and DVDs as well as VHS tapes. As everything still needs to get snail-mailed to New York, though, we're still a ways away from an ESPN segment featuring the best of YouTube.
