better than Sportscenter

I've been a fan of Reid Kerr's for a very long time. See why:
(Referring to ESPN's 'Hit Series' Playmakers) The team appears to have been put together from people too nstable to join "The Dirty Dozen." All of the players have serious problems. The star running back smokes crack before games, and steals pain pills from crippled children. The quarterback has knocked up a girl on a dare. One player is struggling to hide his homosexuality, another is dealing with the bad press from a domestic assault. Yet another is a Cubs fan on the brink of suicide. The kicker is secretly stalking Martin Short, and the punter loved "Gigli."

****

Kobe Bryant has announced he'll opt out of his contract with the Lakers next year and become a free agent. You talk about having bad timing. Normally in a contract year, you want to be on ESPN more often than "Celebrity Justice." Kobe still plans to play this season. It's like they say, "You can't stop Kobe, you can only hope he doesn't make bond."

Kobe was in court this week, but didn't speak. I'm still hoping he goes with the "It's okay, I had Subway for lunch" defense.
