So the Lakers game ended about 20 minutes ago and Sportscenter started. Now, JUST now, they are moving away from their NFL draft coverage to actual sports results. You know, two NBA playoff games decided by a single point each, Pedro going 5-0... all of that meaningless gibberish.
(P.S. If Kobe had played this way during the regular season, he might not have scored 81, but he would have been the unanimous league MVP playing for a 70-win Lakers team.)
Is it me, or is the NFL draft the new World Series of Poker? Hopefully it will fade out next year, just like the WSoP did the past year.
Another horrible thing about ESPN right now: this one Under Armour (I know, I know) commercial. It features primals grunts and rhythmic clapping and testosterone-laden yelling... all on a bus full of (apparently) junior high students. That's no biggie, but then it zooms in on this kid who has got to be 170 pounds of pure muscle, ripped arms and all. I mean he looks like a 5' 4" version of Terrell Owens or something - it's oddly disturbing. They play it over and over, and I really wish they'd stop.
