September 10, 201511 yr This is news to us? You cannot have a true news organization when the NFL is paying your bills.
September 10, 201511 yr I did not have much respect for ESPN before Deflate-gate but have none now. It is one thing to make a mistake in reporting. All the reporters are trying to get the "scoop" first so mistakes will be made. However, if you make a mistake you HAVE to correct it loudly. Mortensen got the initial story about "how deflated" the balls were wrong. That initial report is what got the whole ball rolling to the mess it ended up. I have still never heard Mortensen correct it. The Pats went to the NFL and said you have to get the correct version out there and the NFL basically said no. I assume they went to Mortensen as well and heard crickets. I used to like Mortensen but his integrity is gone IMO - obviously I feel the same about Goodell too.
September 10, 201511 yr ESPN has been a joke for a long time. Only time I watch now is when one of my favorite teams are playing.
September 10, 201511 yr ESPN is living up to more of the E of their name, then the S. Will be MTV soon.
September 10, 201511 yr Many people call it "BSPN" now. I will let you know figure out what the first two letters stand for...
September 11, 201511 yr ESPN is good for games and 30 for 30. People actually watch ESPN outside of those parameters? Also, could someone please inform the BGP spellcheck that parameter is an actual word? I hate getting flagged by spellcheck for words I know I got correct.
