It’s not just sideline reporters. All those little anecdotes and insights into players minds and motivations that Collinsworth busts out are almost certainly bullshit.
Pro sports has become professional wrestling, just without a predetermined outcome (maybe). The modern sports media’s obsession with “storylines” is killing the way the game is covered.
All I care about is understanding the play that was just ran. I really have no interest in the fact that Joe Blow the left tackle came from a rough neighborhood and his entire family is at the game tonight wearing matching tshirts and that he's wearing special sneakers that were painted by some special interest group with a random bible verse reference on them.
And I detest Collinsworth.
