Do Gene Wojciechowski and other ESP hacks have separation anxieties? And isn't "Wojciechowski" the same name of a sausage company that went bankrupt or was that the name of a guy who emptied waste baskets for Stephen Jobs?

I love it!

ESPN has it out for Petrino, no doubt.

I've said it before, but ESPN is more of an entertainment channel to me than a sports news channel. I put them in the same column as Entertainment Tonight, E! and the likes. (which I hate!)

I watch their game broadcast, but I have given up on Sportscenter and those idiotic "analysts" shows they have on 20 times a day.

Anyway, I'll take Petrino with all his faults over Houston Dale any day of the week.

Coach Petrino definitely has some warts, and Razorback fans should not be surprised if he leaves for another opportunity in the next 3 years.

Arkansas fans will turn on this guy in a matter of weeks. I wonder what they will pay him to leave?
