    Great column, and Glenn Jacobs did not come off looking too good.

    This is the guy making the decisions on what we should be seeing on Sportscenter.

    I look at the Kilborn/Olbermann/Patrick era of SC like the Belushi/Akroyd/Murray period of SNL -- and the current Stu Scott/Everett/Buccigross as the Charles Rocket/Gilbert Gottfried/Ann Risley era.

    And yet, the changes will be few... or nonexistent...

    You absolutely nailed it, Poindexter. When I read that quote, I thought, "Wait, who the hell isn't a media critic these days?" I think his excuse is almost as bad as the segments themselves. Almost.

    I completely forgot about 50 in 50. That was actually entertaining. I'd tune in to watch what they said about states I'd lived in, and I also wanted to see what they'd come up with for the small states.

    Yep, 50 in 50 was good stuff. Very off the beaten track, but interesting. I watched states I had no ties to, that's how well done it was.

    Is that supposed to be solid, solid work or solid soiled work?

    You know, 5,000,000 votes in a monthlong online poll is pretty astonishing. If I were running a Web site I'd run 20 Who's Now tournaments a day if it generated that much traffic.
