		<description>Ummm...Krik?

If you&#039;re going to correct someone&#039;s English proofread your own post first.  Your very first word is a grass grown in the ground.  I think you meant &#039;Hey&#039;.

Also, &quot;The Blue Jackets strive as a hockey program there.&quot;  You could mean they THRIVE there.  Strive just doesn&#039;t work.

One more, &quot;...hey get people on there who are very critical of the sports world an people watch.&quot;  AND people watch.

You&#039;re welcome.  Maybe you should learn English too.

And, if anyone learned to read in this world they would see &quot;Columbus (not warm weather, but seriously Columbus?)&quot;.  The writer of this article took care of the warm weather debate so why is everyone bringing it up?

Take a look, it&#039;s in a book, Reading Rainbow you morons.</description>

		<description>OK, how about this:

1. ESPN, or as now known as the New York Yankees/Dallas Cowboys/Tim Tebow/LeBron James worship network? I remember when ESPN broadcasters did their best to stay objective but now it is getting out of hand. Dick Vitale, Chris Berman, and Stuart Scott are all on this list.
2. Those annoying Coors Light coaches commercials. 
3. Hall of Fame writers for baseball (you mentioned it but it needs to be higher than 10. I hate writers who think they are bigger than the game when they don&#039;t pick guys like Rickey Henderson)
4. preseason polls for college football
5. Notre Dame still on NBC and Charlie Weis&#039;s arrogance
6. rookies in the NFL making more money than a multiple time Pro Bowler
7. Bud Selig
8. NHL until the playoffs
9. NFL games in Europe and Canada
10. FOX sports in general (this includes Thom Brennaman and Charles Davis loving on Tebow, Jeanne Zelasko being Jeanne Zelasko, the NFL pregame show, and yes, Joe Buck and Tim McCarver)</description>

		<description>THANK GOD
Someone else who HATES JOE BUCK
The 2005 World Series was the worst experience of my life... and I am A WHITESOX FAN.  Buck basically mad it apparent that in no way shape or form has or had any respect for that team.  Every time I hear his voice calling any game... I throw up a little in my mouth... no joke 
I hate this man</description>

		<description>1. There needs to be a better qualifying process for Hall of Fame voting than just members of the BBWA.  I mean, what does one have to do to join that? Send in your dues?  The thought that NO ONE deserves to be in the first time is nuts. If they were in the NFL, would they have not voted for Jim Brown?
2. The bowl thing is way out of hand. Guess we need to not go or watch. BUT, where is the Poulan Weed Eater Bowl when we need it? The GMAC Bowl? How can they sponsor anything with its parent out of money? Better not be with my tax dollars!
5. I am SO GLAD that Billy PAcker and his ACC favoritism is gone -(yes, they are good, but not as good as Billy makes them out to be) and, for that matter, I am actually MUCH MORE glad that Vitale is gone. I have refused (and not been able to watch a NCAA hoop 
game since he came on the scene - I don&#039;t care HOW GOOD Bobby Knight says he is (And I like Bobby). He&#039;s a loud mouth who draws attention to himself. And Fat Boy Chris Berman has to GO! His novelty and sayings have long worn off and are SOOOO tired.  And please STOP HIM FROM YELLING ALL THE TIME! 
1. NO MORE JOE BUCK. It&#039;s not his English degree, and it&#039;s not anything else. He&#039;s always rode on his dad&#039;s coattails - and there haven&#039;t been much classier gentlemen in or out of sports than JACK BUCK!  It makes me want to paraphrase, &quot;I knew Jack Buck. Jack Buck was a friend of mine. Joe, you&#039;re no Jack Buck!&quot;</description>

		<description>Joe Buck is forever #1 most annoying thing in sports.  I have to listen to the radio during Red Sox postseason games on Fox.  And yes, his talking about the Sox during the Phillies/Rays series is more of the same meaningless blather from his pie-hole. At least with Joe Morgan on ESPN games you get the unitentional comedy aspect.</description>
