I agree, however it is a long 100 days till kickoff and I need things to fill the days. Their BS happens to be easily accessible.

I wasn't criticizing you for posting the information. At all. I've just grown unspeakably weary of ESPN's college football coverage over the last few years. I've been an unnaturally ardent college football fan since I enrolled at LSU in 1994. As such, I've devoted untold hours to watching ESPN. In the late 1990's and early part of this decade, their CFB programming seemed both honest and refreshing. Now, it's trite and hackneyed. They are less interested in reporting on the sport and more interested in advancing whatever muckraking agenda appeals to them at any given moment. Last year, it was offseason recruiting scandals and the supposed corruption of the sport. This year, safety and the need to need to remedy the BCS (which they vaguely allege aided the SEC's dominance) and replace with some egalitarian playoff. In 2007, LSU was the darling. Last year, Bama was the late season darling. This year, it's USC.

The sport isn't broken. It doesn't need ESPN's paternalistic meddling nor its superficial analysis. Just air the damn games.

All that being said, I of course will tune in to the games this fall. LOL.
