ESPN=Stairmaster: wearin' us out

            Dear ESPN,
            Please stop sucking sooooo bad. Please quit thinking with your little Twitter when it comes to news judgment and the ensuing stalking and dead-horse-beating.
            Like the smothering of the Jets training camp, which meant updates on Tebow's favorite toilet paper and interviews loaded with "blessed" and "happy" and "want to win" and "excited" and whether his average pass was a 79 percent spiral or 84 percent spiral or if one could perceive better shotgun snaps to him or to Mark Sanchez, which then leads into three days of analysis on who the team prefers.
            Yes, I'm begging, because I can't watch ESPN for more than about 90 seconds, because it's barely relevant for about 90 seconds before moving on to stalking and dead-horse-beating and wretched writing - is Berman doing scripts? - I-want-my-own-show-on-any-network-doing-anything anchors.
