ESPN: STFU about Jerome Bettis already

Alright, I get it. He's from Detroit. Move on.
It's going to be even sweeter when the Hawks beat the Steelers down and Bettis goes out without his ring. I love it when my team's happy ending contravenes the popular opinion and pisses on the media darling's parade.

Hey at least are still trying to tell us that Michael Vick is the greatest QB of all time.

East Coast Bias! East Coast Bias!
I really think ESPN stops caring about teams when they get a to a certain point somewhere in the midwest, unless it's Gonzaga. The 2 or 3 times they cover Montana every year usually contain some major mistake.
They do seem to like Jerome Bettis, but give the Seahawks some love, too. They're the NFC champions.

Well this year's Super Bowl pits the underdog vs the underdog...
They have to talk about something for 2 weeks, and you can only say the Seattle “gets no respect” 200 times a day.

I just listened to it on my way back in to work. We get everything delayed here on the West Coast. I really hope for his sake that Bradshaw was wasted! He was a trainwreck on the show!! Someone should tell him that similar isn't pronounced simular. He said that at least three times. So I say, YES, he was tanked!

I dunno about that even. The one pre-conference game I saw this year on ESPN showcased Hubert Davis calling the city Spoke-AINE and the school Gon-ZAWGA. Not once but repeatedly. I can't remember who they played but I remember these gaffes.
