Fuck ESPN!

I am a huge sports fan, but this channel has gone too far. I never ever ever thought I would say this, but ESPN has too much sports coverage. The anchors or "journalists" have gone from experts to gossiping little girls. What happened to journalistic respect for athletes and coaches? The ESPN cast criticizes everything athletes do or say. Yet they are not criticized for their dumbass mouthspouts. I guess its not just ESPN, all media in general seem to have forgotten that they are just that, media. They cover the sports because they are not talented enough themselves to play the game. Frustrated has-beens, and never-was athletes should not be allowed to blantantly criticize athletes and coaches who are far superior to them.

With the exception of a few (Marino, Esiason, Steve Young, D-Woodson, Ditka, maybe Eric Allen, and a few I may be forgetting) these "journalists" should shut the fuck up most of the time. Who is Trey Wingo to criticize any athlete? OK Grossman didn't throw a perfect game, but who has? Not Sean Fucking Salsbury. Marty Shottenheimer didn't call a perfect playoff game and he his playoff record basically sucks, but at least he's in the league.

What happened to RESPECT? Marty is a football god compared to anyone on the NFL tonight cast. Even Mike Golic and Mark Schlereth are pisspants compared to most of the athletes they continually rip on.

The media has too much access, too many cameras and too much time to analyze and rip apart every action and spoken word in the sports world today. Some bitch reporter grills Brett Favre about his retirement plans seconds after completing what could be his final game. Let the man walk off the field on his own, you don't need to break the retiremnet story that night for the 10pm sportscenter. Then Wingo or some other no business in sports period anchor makes fun of a legend for shedding tears on TV. Its easy to make fun of him from your air-compression chair in your heated studio with makeup on you faggot. The NFL should do a service to their employees and limit media access to press conferences only. No more locker room access. Its not like the paparazzi chase down Stuart Scott while he's taking a shit. Give these men some privacy, they've earned it. They are the best athletes in the world playing at the highest level. Until you've done that, you can't knock their best efforts.

Not to mention they make huge assumptions from one game. Grossman has a bad game, and Griese should start. The defense has a bad game and they need to revamp the whole team. One game does not tell the story of a season. There is a thing called perspective that you can't really gain from one game or one season. Don't judge unless you have first judge yourself sports media. And you suck at sports, thats why your on the sideline and not on the field. Fuck Jim Rome too, why does he have his own show? Where is his sports credibility?

I HATE SO MUCH THAT I SEE ON SPORTS COVERAGE THESE DAYS

yeah the media is bad, and fucked up, but why should i feel bad for these natural athletes with all the god given talent in the world, if they didn't want camera's in their face, then don't play or coach profesional sports, don't be famous, try working opposed to playing for a living, yeah their humans, and they deserve time out of the public life, but i would guess they would have plenty of time for that while they are collecting their massive paychecks, or when they retire, try being a columbine student, who just watched classmates blown away, then have a camera stuck in your face,
