Is anyone else mad that ESPN spotlighted the Yankees managerial issues more than the Red Sox 2007 WS win ?

I was watching ESPN today hoping to see ome good coverage of the 2007 Red Sox team after they won the WS last night. Instead ESPN showed a special on the Yankees!!! what kind of nonsense is that? Who cares if the Yankees found a new manager or A-Rod opted out of his contract. Cant this stuff wait for a week or so after the Sox have had time to enjoy their hard faught win? I understand that the Yankee new might be a big story but did ESPN really have to run a special about it??? What a joke!!!!

    No. ESPN is rubbish. Whenever I watch anything on it, I turn off the sound and provide my own commentary.

    Sorry to say I agree with you-I am a Yankees fan, but that was really classless of Scott BoringAss to do!
    The managerial issues could’ve waited, it just seems like that yutz Hank Steinbrenner has no sense of style or class either.

    That’s kind of sad they paid more attention to the Yankees than the Red Sox and they won the ws

    I’m a Yankees fan, as much as I **** the Red Sox, this should have all been done on Tuesday, so Boston had at least one day to bask in their glory. They have a good team, they just won the WS, it’s only fair, they deserve it. This is the 2nd posting where I’m sticking up for the Red Sox, I must be in the twighlight zone LOL.

    But you have to understand one thing, NYC is a huge city. The 5 most populated cities in the USA are NYC, LA, Chicago, Houston, & Philly in that order, and NYC has more people than those other 4 cities combined. It also has more people than 45 states, 46 if you include NY state since more than 1/2 the people who live in NY state live in NYC. Having said all that, all the media is in NYC. So anything that happens in NYC dominates the news for the rest of the country, because all the network TV stations home offices’ are in NYC, all the national magazines are based out of NYC, the major newspapers are all in NYC, everything is here.
