The "idiot" on ESPN would love nothing more than to ruin a good official's career. Just too sticky for me.
For the "idiot" it's all about the ratings. He stirs a controversy, gets everybody talking, suddenly ESPN is in the spotlight. If an official takes it in the shorts, that's no sweat off of the "idiot's" nose, or ESPN's collective nose. The bigger the stink, the bigger the ratings. Period.

I was thinking about paying for a membership to ESPN.com. But the more I think about it, the more I think I'll pass. In fact, perhaps next year we should take our pool to Yahoo or somewhere else.
