I've had it about up to here with espn [the worldwide leader in sports(whatever)]... It is almost worse than watching FOX news' so called fair and balanced coverage of political matters... I think this is the result of being an unchallenged entity in the sports world... Take this week for example, nothing but pats vs. boys, 24/7... Don't get me wrong i know this is a big game, but that is all they talked about all week... Aside from the skins game, i dont even know of any other games that are taking place this weekend... Am i the only one that has noticed that keyshawn and the tune have no chemistry and appear ackward at times when trading dialogue??? It seems as those the more former players and coaches they invite on the set, the more art of hiding your bias gets thrown out the window...

PROBLEM: To many former players, coaches, and the same old journalists that have gotten too comfortable and complacent in there jobs...

SOLUTION: FIRE THEM, and hire real journalists...

P.S. They can keep Ditka because he tends to know what he is talking about, ok ya got me, but atleast he is entertaining...

Cosign. I remember a time when I loved ESPN. Now it is just about the most annoying network on television. Outside of checking the scores and watching games on mute, I do not view ESPN at all. They're like a sports tabloid or something and their magazine is a microcosm of their entire operation: full of a bunch of NOTHING, with a couple of readable articles sprinkled in. And they've turned Monday Night Football from an institution into a joke.
