ESPNsanity

You know what, I see what you’re doing ESPN, and I don’t like it. With the unrelenting publicity of the upcoming NFL Draft, you want us to genuinely care about how many reps Jay Cutler can do at 225, Vince Young’s wind-aided vs. non wind-aided 40 time, and Mel Kiper, Jr. It’s as if some sadistic suit at the network is hoping the draft will surpass all other conversations at the watercooler…and they were right. Many of my friends, mostly losers some with promise, have succumb to the frenzied NFL draft brainwashing administered by your shameless network. When you get average Joe’s discussing the details of A.J. Hawk’s physical and how it affects the Arizona Cardinals draft position, you know it’s time to ease up a little.
“Hey man, can you believe the end of 24 last night?”
24? Uh no, I was watching the preview of the NFL Draft Preview Show which leads up to the Draft Day Countdown extravaganza on Friday…you know, like the rest of the world.”
I know Mel Kiper loves the camera, and America loves his weave, but no more force-feeding, I’ve been full for weeks. So please, oh merciless suits, wait until Saturday to discuss D’Brickishaw Ferguson’s shoe size; tell your PTI hand-puppets to branch out; give Michael Irvin his paycheck with a one-way ticket to Nicaragua and say goodbye; stop fooling us into thinking there’s more to Sean Salisbury’s brain than meatloaf; and go ahead and cancel Around the Horn while you’re at it… For the current, nauseating rate of publicity has forced me to watch the NBA Playoffs– something that can never be forgiven.

    I love the NFL Draft….but I hate the leadup to it….if I have to see Sean Salisbury ever again, for any reason, someone must pay….

    You’re right about Around the Horn. I don’t need Bill Plaschke’s daily dose of morality, Jay Marioti
    condescendingly addressing everyone by their surname, nor Stat Boy’s assessment of who is or who isn’t Italian. I never liked
    the show with Kellerman on it, but Stat Boy is somehow worse. It is the ‘Mad TV’ to PTI’s Saturday Night Live.

    Sean Salisbury is also a despicable creature. I don’t think it is hyperbole at all to classify Salisbury as the single worst
    thing on the planet. The AIDS epidemic? Nah, there are drugs for that. Impending war in Iran? Ayatollah Assaholah. But
    Salisbury, he whose sentences never begin without their requisite rhetorical question, is the one thing that, if eliminated,
    would certainly make this world more livable.

    It takes the mentality of someone who would construct random brackets where no actual contest would take place, the kind that
    would pit the Burneil Smiths of the world against a younger, spunkier Artie Motley (provided his mother allowed him to
    participate), to miss the point of the draft all together. It isn’t about the number of reps Haloti Ngata can do at 225lbs.,
    nor about how Jimmy Williams is too stiff in the hips to play corner, it’s all about the second day. When Boomer, proud owner
    of the most diligent combover in the history of hair, has to come up with something constructive to say about the left guard
    from Central Florida who was just taken midway through round seven. Not only does Mel Kiper know his “measurables”, but he
    knows his blood type, PIN number, boxer or brief preference, and his birthweight.

    Then, Salisbury says something that makes us all dumber.

  3. Rugby Fan Steve Says:

    Rugby players spend a lot of time physical training Compared to other form of sports.I have read the
    Rugby laws mentioned on this site. It’s a gripping sport which targets the grip strength and the active mindedness of a player. American football and rugby league are also primarily collision sports, but their tackles tend to terminate much more quickly. For professional rugby, players are often chosen on the basis of their size and apparent strength and they develop the skill and power over the passage of time. In modern rugby considerable attention is given to fitness and aerobic conditioning as well as basic weight training.
