OMG - what happened to the ESPN pregame show? To borrow a phrase from Charles Barkley, “It’s Turrible, Man!”

I haven’t really checked in on ESPN’s NFL Pregame show since week 1 or 2, but checking in today I was flabbergasted. They all suck. Chris “The Ego” Berman’s making bad baseball references, Tuna and Keyshawn sound nothing like the flamboyant and incisive interviewees they were when they were playing, and Emmit Smith was better at dancing the cha-cha than dancing around the teleprompter.

I don’t know how else to say it. The guy just shouldn’t be anywhere near a microphone and if you read this ESPN (which I know you do) please get rid of the guy. I know that you spend a ton of time prepping people before they go on-air. Well if that’s the case….When he’s asked which 0-2 team would be falling to 0-3 could he say the Chargers?

It’s not like we’re talking about 5 or 6 games here….we’re talking about two. 2 games. The Chargers were 1 and 1 coming into this week. And Emmitt is also the early leader in the clubhouse for the dumbest quote of the year……..

His biggest gaffe came during the Week 3 edition of Sunday NFL Countdown, while debating the question of whether Moss can be a leader in New England. At least twice Smith uttered this sentence: “You cannot change the stripes of a leopard.”

Has ESPN finally cornered the market on mediocrity? I mean - gimme the Pleamaker and Steve Young any day! Ditka and TJ are the only ones there that are salvagable. First Primetime goes away and MNF is ruined, and now this. Seems even MLB knows better than to give ESPN their playoff games. I suppose with the FSN Final Score, networks like the NFL Network and media-rich internet outlets - no one really needs ESPN anymore. It’s obvious that ESPN is responding with confirmation that they’ve given up!
