Not really. It's pretty easy to understand the article and the issue. Not sure why you can't get it?

I understand that its about the different vacated seasons. Many of you have said that the vacated wins mean exactly dick, so why does it matter what happens with other vacated seasons? They all mean the same whether they are listed on espn.com or not.

Ok. I'll repeat the "answer" for you.
Vacated wins don't matter, remember? So why the whining?

But what matters is why report one and not the others?

Fuck ESPN! They pick on Michigan because they vacated our basketball wins. But they didn't show USC's!!! Bullshit!

BTW, vacated wins don't mean anything. We all know Michigan was the tourney runner up. Can't erase the memories. But burn in hell ESPN for not erasing USC's meaningless vacated wins!! They mean nothing!

I don't understand why ESPN having a bias, IF they have a bias, matters at all. Who cares? It's not like they impact anything of any real significance, do they?

For me it's more of just a laugh and shake my head kind of thing.

They did report that the other teams vacated wins, they didn't update tables on the website from in some cases 6 or 7 seasons ago. If you don't care, why do you care?

They also have OSU on a 6 game winning streak, right? I can only imagine the outrage from Buckeye haters around the country over that error!!!

So the "Worldwide Leader in Sports" having inaccurate records listed on their informational website is just A-OK with you?

If it was something that meant more than vacated wins, it wouldn't be. Like everyone has said on here already, people know what happened in everyone of those vacated wins. Send ESPN an email and include the elevenwarriors link.

So, having inaccurate records is ok with you in this case?

Karen and web spend more time arguing with buckeye fans than they spend time actually following their own teams I think. Do you guys just get off to that or what?

I dunno, I would think the "worldwide leader in sports" would have accurate information on their website.

Why don't LJ or S&L respond to you? They must get off on arguing with non Buckeye fans!
