I don’t like the sports media at all. Very few of them have ever played professional ball, coached, or was a scout/GM on a team. Yet they talk like experts. Why do they get a platform?
Because experts aren't generally entertainers. Generally speaking, they are either barely coherent former athletes or droning experts.
The blame lies with us. We don't demand information we demand entertainment and emotional appeals (good or bad)
I'm using demand rather loosely here, but here we are talking about them.
