Again, it's a major story and ESPN wouldn't be doing its job if it didn't provide full coverage of the biggest stories

ESPN is part of one of the biggest international companies, why shouldn't it take advantage of all of Disney's properties? Plus, keep in mind that MNF isn't meant to appeal just to football fans, but to all television viewers
If Fox, CNN, and MSNBC all jumped off a bridge...

As for MNF, I think there is some room for jocularity and pop culture but the current broadcast overdoes it. I think most people still tune in to the football game expecting to see... the football game.

And, I've said this before but these criticisms are not intended to get a rise out of you or anyone else and I hope you don't take offense or even feel the need to act as an apologist or spokesperson on their behalf.
