The ESPN.com front page right now...none of this is overkill. No, not at all.

There's so much shit on the ESPN homepage that I can't even figure out how to adbock that monster. And I already have half the page blocked.

Based on what I've seen from the coverage, you'd think that USC was playing Notre Dame tonight. But then, what else is new? And you wonder why LSU fans are so defensive about their 2003 National Championship, and why SEC partisans think ESPN hates them.

Unrelated comment, except for the "ESPN Overkill" angle. During what just feels like the 832nd Yankees/Red Sox game that ESPN has shown this year, the announcers declared that the NL Central was realistically a "3 team race" because the 4th place team was like 7 games back.

Excuse me, guys. Have you checked to see how far back the Yankees were last night before they won? So if 7 games equals "dead," then WHY IN THE HELL are you shoving the Yankees and the Red Sox down our throat instead of showing us a Brewers/Cubs game or a Padres/D'Backs game? I mean, by association, your own announcer just told us that this game probably doesn't mean anything.

I'm the anon. who posted the LSU/SEC comment. Let me give you an example from last night. LSU's defense is scary good. They have one of the best defensive players in the country in Glenn Dorsey. They have 4 to 6 guys who are getting All American or at least All SEC mention. They have one of the best defensive coordinators in the game in Bo Pelini. And what do the ESPN announcers say about LSU's defense last night? "LSU has one of the best defenses in the country, at least this side of Los Angeles."

Just went to the ESPN site for the first time in a while.

Is it just me, or is the scrolling on the thing in the middle just a touch too fast. I try reading it and maybe clicking on a link, and BAM it goes to the next tab.

Frickin dickweeds.

As bad as ESPN has become, Rece Davis is a beacon of hope that maybe one day they can restore credibility to the once proud network. Keep it up, Rece.

And to the guy hating on the Yanks/Red Sox, no one wants to watch the D'Bags and Padres...no one.

AA you're splittin' hairs here about the graphic misinformation. These things happen everywhere. They were expecting Meyer and got the OC.

Oh man...I'm defending the WWL...shoot me now.

I know Z...I was just poking fun with this one.

No one wants to watch the D'Backs and Padres because nobody knows anything about them, there are never any stories about them, and none of their games are EVER televised.

In this case, the chicken did indeed come before the egg.

And we all know which network is to blame for that.

If ESPN cared about the D'Backs and Padres, trust me, so would we. Basically because we wouldn't have a choice. Sort of like the Yankees and Red Sox.
