Packers QB Brett Favre goes to the bathroom.
Well, I'm obviously kidding. But I wouldn't be surprised if they have Chris Mortenson reporting outside Favre's bathroom. But point be told, ESPN is in love with this. I hardly watch SportsCenter anymore, and even ESPNNEWS, has gotten a bit old with this. Even the Yanks and Red Sox highlights are coming on 20 minutes during the episode!
I watch SportsCenter to get highlights, scores, see the experts talk baseball/football/etc. I don't watch it to see what Brett Favre ate for breakfast, or which plane he took to Green Bay. I don't watch it for the soap opera saga bewtween Favre, Rodgers, Goodell, the Packers, the Packers faithful, and Mark Murphy. I bet myself sometimes. When I'm about to flip on ESPN or ESPNNEWS, I tell myself they will be talking about number 4. And sure enough, there's a reporter talking, video clips for Green Bays training camp, or the Packers fans speaking their minds.
This has gotten to the point to T.O./Eagles saga a few years ago, and may have even exceeded that. So the memo to ESPN: Show what most of us want to see. Highlights, scores, chats, little documentarys, and predictions. Don't show us the soap opera that's gotten old after the first week.

I agree, but I don't think there is enough sports action going on right now to over shadow how big the saga is. Once the olympics start on the 8th and we can watch team USA, specifically basketball... the airtime this story gets should decline big time...AND MOST IMPORTANTLY COLLEGE FOOTBALL STARTS THIS MONTH. SHUKKA SHUKKA YEAAAAAAAAH
