quick slant

I was home for lunch yesterday, and turned on the tv to see if sportscenter was on. apparently I’d just missed the 45th showing that day, because it was not sportscenter, but instead live senior bowl coverage. I’m not talking about octogenarians and 7-10 splits. this is the game for senior college players to showcase their talents in front of the NFL scouts. and it wasn’t just any senior bowl coverage. no, this was live footage of the practice field, hour 6. yes, it actually said “hour 6″.

does espn think we’re really that desperate for football? is super bowl: extra-large really that far away for the ordinary joe? what’s next, nfl europe training camp in HD?
