Hello all,
Friend and foe alike come and bask in the greatness of my quickly assembled and utterly simplistic sports blog. After years of convincing myself people on the blogosphere are simply blowhards who can't get real journalism jobs I've decided I'm either wrong, or I'm right, but no one else cares, so I may as well have my ridiculous opinions heard as well. In today's 24 hour a day news network world ESPN has become less of a sports information source and more of a CNN Headline news for puffed up stories about TO crying and A-Rod getting divorced. And I'm sure I don't need to remind any of you of the nauseating nonstop coverage of Brett Favre's midlife crisis. In any event most of the people that appear on TV to analyze sports either don't know what they are talking about or are told to dumb it down for the most simple minded viewers.
What we are left with is a watered down product that tells us nothing about sports. Sports is far from rocket science, sure it can be unpredictable, but it is not nearly as surprising or volatile as people like Jay Mariotti and John Madden might have you believe. So my hope in starting this blog is to write some posts that will show that sports analysis is not that hard, and that the professionals should be held to a higher standard.
I hope you all enjoy the posts that will begin to roll out of the coming days and weeks and please join up as a season ticket holder and read and comment regularly.
PS. Jaws is an awesome analyst and should not be considered a target of my rant..."Let's take a look at the Visa Skycam."
