re: ESPN is funny

First of all, if anything, ESPN is biased toward the SEC in college football.

Only for the past year, and it might have just a tiny bit to do with a certain enormous contract signed by a certain conference and a certain tv station. "This USC team is the greatest college football team ever assembled"...blah, blah, blah. UT and LSU disagree.

Lakers/Celtics final was a boon to all of the media, because it was two top teams

---

So did the media love for boston start after they had accumulated all those wins? Even while in last place the Celts get play...BECAUSE ITS BOSTON AND ESPN IS IN NEW ENGLAND! Makes perfect business sense to me. Not even addressing the LAkers. Cowboys and Lakers are always the favorite soap opera. When was their last title again?

The Sox and the Yankees have been battling for the top seed in the AL for years now

---

I'll give you the Sox. Great team and consistency. The Yankees have not been relevant this century have they? Its all about the hype and drama.

ESPN does NOT show favoritism to them.

---

If the large majority of airtime =/= favoritism, then you are abolutely right.

What's funny is all of the people who have an inferiority complex on this board...

Again, its a private business that can prop up whoever they want. I don't care who the rat shows bias for, I'm just not naive enought to believe it doesn't exist.
