More obvious bias from ESecPN

I GO TO WWW.ESPN.COM AND WHAT DO I SEE?
A front-page picture and an article titled: "College football's most exciting players (and no Tua or Trevor!)."
NOTICE HOW TUA IS MENTIONED FIRST AND TREVOR SECOND. IT IS CLEAR SUBLIMINAL WORDING TO MAKE YOU THINK TUA IS FIRST AND TREVOR IS SECOND.
The second line reads: "What makes players like Alabama's Jerry Jeudy the most exciting in college football? We have the stats and the highlights for these 15 can't-miss stars."
SINCE JERRY JEUDY IS SO PROMINENT, YOU WOULD FIGURE HE WOULD BE THE #1 GUY. NOPE, HE IS #2. THE TOP GUY (PURDUE'S RONDALE MOORE) IS NOT FEATURED LIKE JEUDY.
KEEP IT UP E"SEC"PN, LEAVE THAT CHIP ON OUR SHOULDER. WE THRIVE ON THE DISRESPECT!

ESPN just had two days of nonstop Clemson football and that’s all you can come up with. You wonder about some people’s thought process Go Tigers

if you load the ESPN app on your phone, it asks you to choose your favorite sports. If you pick NCAAF it will ask you to choose your favorite team. Suggestion is BAMA. when you are offered to select teams you would like updates for the ONLY college team listed among a bunch of professional sports team suggestions...BAMA. pisses me off.

I mean I do feel like they lean toward the SEC, but what people don't think about, thats where their largest college football market is. I really believe a lot of it is business. Playing to your largest audience. I mean think about how many people hang their hat on the fact that their favorite crappy team is in the SEC. You dont really hear that out of the other conferences. Point being, the SEC is their biggest market. "Play the hits."

When the ACCN gets off the ground, ESPN will make the occasional mention of some of the other 14 teams (for most sports) in the league. Better brace yourself for that slight.
