ESPN still makes me crazy

Will Leitch thinks ESPN is ruining sports. I agree. The (hated by me) Chicago Cubs have won 9 games in a row, have the best record in the majors and you are hard pressed to find much coverage of it. However, when a former set up man for the NYYs starts a game, throws 67 pitches, gets no decision, it gets almost as much coverage as the upcoming Celtics-Lakers series. God save the fan, indeed.

ESPN guarantees me at least 15 Duke basketball games a year. For that I am thankful. This is not intended to be sarcasm.

And you can still fight through that cartoon character Dickie V or do you keep the sound down?
