Brady, Beanie and Broadcasters — oh my!
After the action of the first two weekends of college football and the first Sunday of the NFL season, I’m surprised we haven’t heard an update from ESPN’s talking heads that goes something like this:
We interrupt our report on the status of Beanie Wells’ foot to bring you this report on Tom Brady’s knee: it hurts him. A lot.
Stay tuned for more, including an update from Sao Paolantonio, Ed Werder, Rachel Nichols and Wendi Nix — all of whom are stationed outside the offices of Boston knee surgeons to give you a breakdown of what Brady will go through under the knife.
To be sure, Brady’s injury is huge news. Any time the (arguably) best franchise in the NFL loses (arguably) the best quarterback in the league for the season in a year it was (arguably) the front-runner for yet another Lombardi Trophy, it deserves its share of coverage.
However, it’s been nothing short of ridiculous to see “KneeGate” get more coverage than the entire slate of Sunday games in the league. The only way this injury could get more air time is if it somehow came to light that Jeff Gillooly himself had something to do with it. Oh wait, there’s already a hilarious song about just that possibility:
