    Just said he was preparing for his who cares pac12 game and he heard LSU was down 14 and he said we got excited. I thought " journalists" were supposed to be objective. What a dim wit. Admitting you were excited that a team was losing is in poor taste.

    The MSM today largely sucks, doesn't matter whether it is news, opinion, or sports. Craig James can suck it like all the rest of them!

    Did he get a tingle all up & down his leg--like Chris 'Tingles' Matthews, every time Matthews heard Obama speak?

    The only people on ESPN who you should expect to be "objective" are SportsCenter anchors, or live game announcers. All of the studio shows are entertainment, and the commentators are to be expected to give their opinions. They can also be expected to intentionally go against conventional thinking, just to stir up conversation.

    Here is the exact quote courtesy of my DVR and closed captions:

    Mike, we were in our meeetings and saw that 14-0 arkansas, got excited there for a moment, right here it comes, and then LSU put the woodshed to them.

    When you're on top, everyone wants to see you fall. He's human and no different than millions who would be excited tomorrow if Auburn beat Bama. People love upsets.
