    ESPN = morons

    I still wonder why espn.com decided to let John Sickels go. I guess they feel like having people such as Steve Phillips and John Kruk write articles is better.

    While the website does borrow some material from BA, they rarely have fresh material on the minors/prospects.

    Sickels 2006 Prospect book is coming soon.

    I think ESPN should change its name to EOE.

    I never really got to read his stuff on ESPN.COM mainly because of the shrinking of the free material.

    Oh well it just confirms to me that ESPN caters to the dumb sports jock.

      Agreed, everything on that site is becoming insider content even Bill Simon's archives.

          ESPN used to be the first and only site I went to for sports information, now I rarely ever visit the site.

          IMO ESPN in general is garbage now. From Sportscenter to the website, they just don't provide the content that I want. As SPTO stated "They provide for the dumb sports jock".

            I can't stand ESPN anymore. Sportscenter is boring and turned into a tv show rather than news. Their website wants you to pay for all their news or to read Mel Kiper's ramblings. I can hop right over to Sportsline and get all of the pay content from ESPN for free.

              I'm so sick of people like Stuart Scott and all his stupid sayings. He needs to shut up and report on the sports.

                Don't blame Stu. I'm sure the higher ups are the one's responsible for the "Booyahs" and what-nots.

                    I too am I tiring of it. The really go out of their way to try to blow things WAY out of perspective. Look at the past month's programming it was all around how USC was the greatest team on earth ever and reggie bush was the best player ever to play college football. They covered USC and did those stupid polls like they already won the national title.

                    Now they are doing the same thing with the Colts.

                    They play bandwagon worse than any network ever.

                    During baseball season you would think that their network was owned by the Red Sox and Yankees when alot of other teams have just as good of stories and match-ups but when they don't get the publicity that the other teams do, the average fan can't really connect with them.

                    They need to stop fanboy over there as a whole IMO.

                            I have been saying ESPN should change it's name to MTV Sports. Its all about selling an image to idiots now.

                              I blame everything that is wrong with SportsCenter on Stuart Scott.
