The Freeh Report drops and now 3 of their 4 channels will be talking about it nonstop for the next 24 hours. Why? It's not a sports story anymore. Sandusky is in the clink/on his way to the clink, Paterno is dead, and the only parties alive involved with it still are University presidents. Leave this shite to the 24 hour newsstations and talk about current/future stuff involving sports.

Talk about some second half baseball. Have some analysts come on and do some predictions for the college football season or the NFL. Give some updates on the Olympics teams. Something. Anything but having 3 of your 4 networks running their mouths on about a story that has nothing to do with sports anymore for the next 24 hours.

fricking ESPN.

Are you serious? It's one of, if not the biggest sports scandals ever.

This.

MLB is coming out of the All-Star break and the Olympics do not start for another few weeks.

This story hit when nothing else was going on.

It is impossible to type all the reasons why ESPN sucks in a single post.

ESPN2 has golf on. Make yourself comfortable and log off.

I'm guessing this thread didn't turn out like you expected it to. Want to take another run on how no one believes Kareem is one of the Top 10 Players in NBA History?

It's not a sports scandal anymore. Seriously you people trying to relate this to the sports world are grasping for straws at this point. Sandusky was a FORMER coach. He was the main catalyst behind it. He was not a part of any program when this story broke. The PSU board/President covered it up. They don't work in the Athletic Department. They have nothing to do with the sports arena.

Paterno is dead. This story has no business being anything more than a passing blip on ESPN's radar. As bad as Sandusky's crimes were, they have nothing to do with Penn State's AD anymore. All those parties are dead or gone. This story doesn't belong on ESPN on 3 damn channels for an entire 24 hours period anymore.

Also, it's far from the biggest sports scandal ever because the scandal itself did not occur in relation to sports. The steroids scandal in baseball, SMU's death penalty, Armstrong potentially on roids, etc. those are sports scandals because they are directly related and involve the sports themselves. As bad as Sandusky's crimes were, he was a former coach. This has nothing to do with athletics anymore. Just another example of ESPN overcovering an event that they have no business giving more than passing coverage too.

......other than being so blatantly wrong at just about everything you post. Kareem not a Top 10 Player? Schaub > Big Ben? ESPN sucks cause they devote so much air time to one of if not THE biggest scandal in Sports History? I mean damn dude, you're failing at such a ridiculous level that it would fly right past Epic Trolling.



Lol you are so fricking stupid that it's pathetic. Again why are you here troll? Your team isn't in the SEC. You have no business here at all.

Kareem is not a top 10 player, I have no idea where the frick you are getting anything about me posting about Schaub, Roethlisberger, or any other quarterback in this thread so that's more trolling on you, and this isn't even a sports scandal anymore nor was it really ever one to begin with, but hey keep letting ESPN tell you what's relevant in the sportsworld lemming.

How's the Longhorns Network working out for you?
