Oh hey look, Page 2 is taking shots at the Yankees every chance they get... Not that the Biggest. Choke. Ever. isn't deserving, but still... it just bothers me that they don't even attempt to be objective at ESPN, especially on Page 2.

Oh hey look, Page 2 is taking shots at the Yankees every chance they get... It's to make up for the years of fellating the Yankees before 2004.

Grum, I wouldn't say ESPN has ever fellated the Yankees. They always get the most press, yes, but any opinion column or on-air bobblehead (excepting Harold Reynolds) is fairly obviously a Yankee Hater, and they've never made any attempt to hide that. I'm perfectly fine with them not being fans, but it just seems like bad journalism to constantly pepper your columns with anti-Yankee remarks. More like being a fan than being a writer. Chris, you're right. I'd say the NHL really ought to top that list...

The NHL and the NHLPA should have a no-blinking contest to decide who gets the top spot.
