Anyone else think All-Access Kentucky thing on ESPN was really lame? Not to mention a complete and total void of imagination. Come on ESPN - lazy enough? About 5 minutes was enough for me - seeing JC leave his mansion and getting into his fancy car was about all I could handle. Geez.
Do they just rotate MSU, Duke, UK for these kind of shows? And of course - the coaches get the vast majority of the face time and so much of it is contrived.
I would have been much more intrigued if they did it on a team that serves themselves up as a "buy" team. The trials and travails of being on the road so much of the time - dealing with 40 point losses etc.
The writer in the piece below thinks it is an unfair advantage - w/o seeming like I am whining, I kind of agree. Not too mention it is lousy TV:
