    If you want good honest sports reporting, ESPN is the last place to go. Come to think of it, tabloidism is everywhere. It's hard to get real meaningful reporting these days. That's because no one is willing to pay for it.

    Hiring race baiting analysts like Steven A Smith and Rob Parker sounds more like an MSNBC move to me.

    Well speaking of Fox apparently Anquan Boldin wanting to face the Broncos again is viewed as trying to get under their skin:

    The only analyst out there that seems to do his homework is Jaws. He doesn't merely stat opinions or bring up stats he studies film and explains what is going on.

    They must have had to complete a worthless article in 120 words or less.

    MSNBC is FoxNews lite IMO. They are both the same animal and are both worthless IMO. It used to be that people made fun of the National Enquirer or other tabloids. Now people cannot distinguish them from the "news."

    Jaws gets on my nerves but he is a tremendous analyst. SI has some good writers too
