    I don't get ESPN news but I do get ESPN 2. I'm guessing more subscribers on 2 than news, and that's why.

    But if you're missing poker, here's a live look in.

    ESPN2 in much more many households than ESPN News. People who hear this news will turn to ESPN and see a nondescript game but see the coverage is on ESPN2. They know that channel more than ESPN News.

    RIP to a great, great man and, on a lighter note but every bit as true -- one of the great signatures in sports. He always insisted on taking the time to make it perfect, something 95 percent of today's athletes in all sports absolutely do not do for their fans.

    Lerner is about to lose it.
    Fun fact: Rory McIlroy earned 11.53 million dollars today. Arnold Palmer earned 6.9 million dollars in his career.

    Same here. The Joe Schultz reference reminds me of another Bouton gem from Ball Four that seems fitting: "There was a lot of day today. I'm not sure I can take many like that."

    Yeah, but Arnie earned many millions more than that in endorsements. He still routinely showed up on the lists of wealthiest athletes, more than 50 years after his prime.
