In Broadcasting, the End Is Sudden, and Often Totally Pointless

"I'm Not Going To Pay A Lot For This Trailer Park Prostitute!"
Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN as the NFL deals with a shocking — and embarrassing — wildcard story of Niners owner Jed York getting busted for soliciting a $140 prostitute in Ohio. But is it worse than Vrabel with Russini? What will the league do? Probably nothing. The Browns have named Deshaun Watson their Week 1 starter, and Czabe sees *some* (but not much) logic to it. Dan Snyder is a forgotten man, in another land, and it couldn't have happened to a more deserving asshole. The shield was behind Mike Tirico getting cock-blocked from the original Thursday Night Football in favor of "Over The Hill Al," and what happens IF the league needs network TV more than the other way around?
