NCAAF  > General NCAAF  > ESPN Apologizes for Slur in Headline
February 18, 2012, 01:46 PM
This is just too funny ... but it illustrates how ESPN is driven to take the latest craze to the extreme and p|mp it for all it's worth with a complete lack of focus.

Their over-the-top coverage of Jeremy Lin is just the latest example. They did the same thing with Tebow, LeBron, Tiger, conference realignment, BCS controversy ...

... and we trust these guys to be objective? LOL!

As I figured. SI didn't censor it when they copied AP's story. That's the trouble with censorship.

Maybe now that Craig James left it might be OK to start following it again, at least for me.
