    Related or unrelated, who knows....but I just watched as Brian Kenney tried to convince Steve Phillips that Joba should be considered as a legit Cy Young candidate. It wasn't so awful except for the fact that Kenney wouldn't quit, even when Phillips said Joba shouldn't even be in the discussion.

    Phillips supported his argument while Kenney just kept interrupting with very little to back up his point.

    Just painful to watch.

    Yeah, that WAS hard to watch.

    As for the other, not to over-defend ESPN, but it wouldn't be the first time the business side of a media business went out and did something that had nothing to to with, or any approval of, the news side of things.

    Short answer: YES!!!

    Long answer (in the form of a Simpson's phrase)
    Burns: You do know our business' strict laws about integrity, right?
    Homer: In-teg-ri-ty?
    Burns: Oh, silly me, I seem to have made up a new word. Carry on. (starts cackling wildly.)
