Anyone else notice that ESPN...?

Acted like Mark Sanchez was a bum before saturday, and then he throws for 338 yards vs. Virginia, now they think he is better than Matt Leinart, Carson Palmer (Jesse Palmer said this on Sunday on Sportscenter)? Is it me or is Virgina the worst team from the worst BCS conference in America? Why the sudden crowning?

Anyone else notice this?

    well, i don't know about all of that, but yeah, overall, you're generally correct.

    ESPN is the king of sports' spin. they create some of their own stories. albeit, they have good coverage of the sports world, but they take too many liberties.

    who cares? i don't. i recognize them for what they are and take the good w/ the bad, and then discard the bad, knowing what is behind it.

    at first, like most viewers, i naively accepted everything that they said, but then realized that they put their pants on the same way i do. sure they have experience and sources, but that doesn't make them automatically correct.

    i could go on and on. notice their over - coverage of Favre, Yanks vs Sox, Strahan coming back, etc?

    they're hilariously ridiculous. just take everything you hear w/ a grain of salt.

    add - for the record, i'm not saying sanchez is good ... or bad. or USC for that matter. i'm just saying that ESPN is fickle and likes to spin.

    ESPN is a bunch of fair weather honks, Sanchez is probably an above average QB stuck in the middle of an high power offense. You put him on a team like Baylor and he probably doesn't do as well.

    I think if sanchez played a decent team he would be bum all over again....USC is garbage...weak-a$$ schedule...
