Man, ESPN annoys me. The problem I think is that they have to make sure they know about every sport and come up with a reason why to support their opinion that their reasoning is very shallow. I mean, come on, how can one draw a conclusion after one game of a playoff series? Already the championship is going to be Miami vs. Phoenix. When do these guys learn that stuff happens, especially in the playoffs?
Same goes for baseball, a star has a bad game and he's a shell of himself and the team is going to hit the tank because he can't carry them anymore. It's one game guys! I take what they have to say with a grain of salt which is why I don't watch it too much anymore. It's just not in-depth analysis.
If I want to hear about a sport, I would rather listen to the expert (Barry Melrose=hockey, Greg Anthony=basketball, Sean Salisbury=NFL, Lee Corso=college football, etc.).
