    They have been running commercials for this shit for a week. I saw 90 seconds of it and that was enough to make a full and complete assessment.

    This blows donkey ass.

    Considering the last few weeks have produced a 30-year-old story about some fucking dolphin, ESPN Deportes, Arena League highlights and the incredibly contrived "My Wish" I actually think this is a step up...

    These types of things are actually very popular. We did something similar right before the NCAA tournament
    http://thebiglead.com/?p=1943

    except it was more of a look at culture rather than just sports. Except we just put the bracket out there and didn't do all the elimination stuff because it was too much work.

    We made no secret that we plucked the idea straight out of the New York Times, which did an awesome one two years ago (but not heavy on sports).

    It's probably because July is the slowest sports month of the year.

    I caught this on sportscenter this morning and still don't understand it. Surprised to see Wilbon roped into it.

    ESPN; hot ass mess since the mid-90s. The only way they could be any more self-serving is if they did a hot personalities/anchors segment.
