    Hopefully the kid bounces back. And isn't the latest in a long line of derailed pitching phenoms.

    The thing is, all these "derailed pitching phenoms" are created by ESPN. I mean heck they were the ones leading the protest to get him in the freaking all-star game when he'd only started four games.

    I feel for the guy, but hopefully in that time ESPN would have moved onto their next saviour so that the guy play without the insane hype.

    lol @ blaming espn for everything that is wrong with sports. espn didn't even exist let alone hurts sports if not for the lemmings that give it ratings.

    disclaimer: i am not defending espn, merely pointing out that people are stupid.

    Please point me toward the part where I said that ESPN are the root of all evil in sport?
