Here's a link to the video. A nice compilation:

Finally some positive news from ESecPN....

Um, Scott, that list is detailing great college players who "failed" in the pros. Not exactly a compliment to Archie.

Well, Bucknut-in-the-South, it's a good thing this clearly draws a distinction between Saturday & Sunday. The title is only "Simply Saturday," not "Let's bash their pro career." Geez.

The premise of the article is kind of mean-spirited, and it figures that ESPN, and particularly Pat For-dee would figure out a way to disrespect the Buckeyes using our greatest player. Business as usual.

you know, i didn't even read the lead in article, and the way the one is on Archie's page is worded I didn't read into it that much (i know he didn't have a stellar pro career)

whatever, i like the video. and to be honest, you, i , and anyone else can interpret as we choose. I choose to say fuck you espn, and enjoy the video :-)

Fail as usual for ESPN. The facts do not matter in the least. Archie was drafted by the Bengals for reasons that still aren't clear and Archie did exactly what they asked him to do. Is that qualify as failure? Hardly. There's a huge mountain range of NFL busts. Archie Griffin does not count among them. I hate ESPN.
