Either way, Wojciechowski proves once again that ESPN employs lots of really stupid people to cover the NFL. The last line of the piece is my favorite: ...

Football, in the cold? Commence whining
Published 5/22/2008 by fynalcut at The FynalCut
There is one argument in professional football that draws more whines than any other. It’s not the validity of preseason games, or even instant reply. It’s the site of future Super Bowls. Recently, the league announced that the 2012 version of the world’s biggest game will be played in Indianapolis. This, apparently, made ...

Simple. Yeah, that sounds simple enough.  Can't ...

Filed under: NFL Fans, NFL Media Watch, Super Bowl, Indianapolis When word came out that Indianapolis was awarded the 2012 Super Bowl, you could hear the collective groan all over the internets/newspapers/sports shows. They all say that Indianapolis is a lovely city ... but it's gonna be cold. Cold sucks, apparently. One of the biggest critics has been ESPN.com's Gene Wojciechowski: Indianapolis? You mean, the Indianapolis in Indiana? The place where the low was 26 degrees with a trace of snow on Super Bowl Sunday this year? I don't get it.

... in terms of his rehab, but this insistence on bringing up this Philadelphia thing when He. Is. Not. Even. A. Suspect. in the incident (let alone getting charged with anything illegal) is now beyond the point of stupid.

Here, The Sportz Assassin takes a shot at ESPN resident idiot Gene Wojciechowski: Boo-hoo. The Super Bowl won't be held in Miami, New Orleans, ...
