Good on Jeff Fisher for calling ESPN out on their bullshit. It seems like all they've become over the past few years is the sporting version of TMZ. What happened to reporting good stories with facts? Have we devolved to doing stories on a dude's showering habits? Are you fucking kidding me?

I'd probably ban ESPN reporters(if I were Fish) after that kind of bullshit.

Fisher is covering for his players. But good on Fisher for protecting his players, and it's the right thing for ESPN to just admit complete fault and move on.

And did Fisher just wake up yesterday? Players and media reach out to each other on personal time, all the time. That's when most of the info is revealed.

Yeah, yeah I know I'm just apologizing for ESPN. Whatever

Whoa brah. I didn't see that statement as apologizing. You are right about Fish should know about players being contacted on their time, but my gripe is with the lame drama stories to begin with.

Wasn't addressing you specifically on the last part

24 hours/multiple channels plus digital-not every segment is going to be pulitzer prize winning.

But this whole "Sam showering with the fellas" thing is something that a lot of fans have wondered/worried about. I agree it should be a non-story, but it's not.

Good on Mendenhall. He had a plan for his life and he's following through.
