The ESPN schedule in 2007 is a rich blend of live sports events, analysis shows, sports news, and infotainment content that espouses ESPN's core brand value: "to serve sports fans wherever sports are watched, listened to, discussed, debated, read about or played."

The crown jewels in the ESPN 2007 lineup were the live sports events. This includes professional, collegiate and high school football games, Major League Baseball games, NBA games, and an array of international sports coverage such as cricket, golf, Formula 1 Racing, and more. ESPN provides a platform to sports that generally do not get prime-time coverage, helping to widen the coverage of sports and make them more accessible to the general public.
