Jay's Bio
5'8 140 (ding!) 2LT, United States Army. I found myself wanting to write about sports several times on my philosophy blog Applied Pragmatism (www.appliedpragmatism.blogspot.com), so I decided to open this account to get my thoughts down. I'm from Nebraska, but try to cover everything when I write. I will do game recaps from time to time, but I prefer to work from a broader angle. If you leave a comment I will do everything I can to get back to you and continue the conversation.

And I agree with you, to a degree. I listen to ESPN Radio everyday. However, the point is reversed. They already have this in-depth analysis on the radio, on ESPNews, on First Take. Now they want to bring the same information to another channel. They're increasing the breadth of information and not the depth.
