ESPN has a habit of posting totally unimportant news stories on its front page. The example today is this: Jerry Reinsdorf senses Bulls title run. Yes, breaking news to ESPN is the Bulls chairman in a random interview saying that his team has a chance to win the title this year and a chance to potentially win more in coming years. Conference tournaments are going on in NCAA Basketball and this is what we're reporting on? I'm sure if you interview an executive from any contending Franchise he's going to tell you something along those lines.
This is only an example of the maddening problem that ESPN has with blurring irrelevant articles with real news articles. This is just so aggravating because there has to be actual sports news to cover. I'm sure you could've interviewed Jerry Reinsdorf before the season and the interview would've been pretty similar so what is the urgency in letting the nation know about this? At least a few times a week I find articles on the front page of ESPN that are clearly not sports reporting, especially if it deals with the personal lives of Lebron James and Alex Rodriguez. I will start posting articles like this I find on this blog more often.
