Well,
I feel like a political candidate that has planned an amazing press event with plans for all kinds of national media coverage, only to discover that some other candidate is involved in a scandal that consumes all of the available oxygen.
This Penn State thing is absolutely stealing away every available minute on ESPN. Spots that were almost certain to be features on Stanford or Oregon are now replaced with commentary about very sad events that took place 7-12 years ago in "Happy Valley".
The scandal is stunning and the idea that Joe Pa could be kicked out are almost unbelievable, but at the same time this was supposed to be the one week for the Pac-12.
