I'm glad someone is poking fun at ESPN because they take themselves **WAY** too seriously and seem to treat any "controversy" in sports (most of which they create) as if it were a national emergency. We need Will to start a new sports network that treats sports as the joke it has become (especially ESPN). this should be a great read.

Will's stories will be fun to read, I should buy it. I haven't read the book yet, but your comment at the end makes a lot of sense. I love blogs. Bloggers do a great job of pointing out errors in sports, and being really funny about it, too. But they don't really try to fix anything, most of the time. It's like the high school class clown who could go to college, but is too busy making jokes to fill out his apps. Maybe Will can write a second book later on that would offer some solutions; I'd buy that one. Good review. Will’s stories will be fun to read, I should buy it.
