Brian Tuohy always puts that tagline (or at least used to) on the end of many of his commentaries on his website.
Yesterday and today, we got three good examples as to why...
Either the opening day of the NFL or the opening day of the $40/month ESPN/NFL+ package (which was yesterday), two men were arrested in Egypt yesterday and efforts made to close down the world's largest sports-piracy site, StreamEast.
Also, ESPN shill Pat McAfee trying to shill for his new owners, as the fact that the seven hours of football where Every Touchdown Will Be Aired will no longer be commercial-free as of this season. (NFL RedZone, and, trust me, fans are not happy.
But then we get to the opening kickoff of tonight's first game, with the champion Eagles hosting the Cowboys, and not only have the Eagles lost Jalen Carter for probably Week 1 and 2 (disqualified from the game for spitting on Dak Prescott), but have lost Ben vanSumeren for the season due to a torn ACL on the play.
As of when I hit send, it's 17-14 Cowboys, the Eagles are driving, and no punts have been had for the entire first half.
ETA: Whoops. Make that 21-17 Eagles with less than a minute to go in the first half. The difference being the Cowboys were held to a field goal.
