Given the labor situation in two of four major American sports its hard to be hopeful for anything. The Bruins still have me giddy and the Sox are either cause for celebration or a cause for irritation. In the NBA the players need to give up money so that small market teams can survive, seriously Eddy Curry makes more money in a season than he should have in his career. In the NFL the owners are getting rich and honestly the younger players and those injured need some financial relief. There are no measures in place to help those who need it.
Speaking of overpaid, Vernon Wells comes to mind. So does about 100 other players in the major sports leagues, but I digress. Back to my rant:
In other crap, ESPN put the stupid Auburn tree story on their front page along with "Charlie Sheen did 'roids during the filming of Major League". Seriously?!? These are related to sports... very distantly. ESPN should be informing me of trades, scores, and things related to the actual playing of sports not movies and trees on a campus that people celebrate under. Give me a break, and some trade speculation please.
Comment, let me know what you think needs to be getting attention, whats getting too much attention, and what you think should happen in the labor disputes or who you think is overpaid.
