    I like Trev. Mark May brings nothing to the table.

    It could have been a lot worse:

    ESPN REPORTER SUICIDE


    FORMER ESPN reporter Adrian Karsten, facing a prison tax rap, was found dead, an apparent suicide, in his Wisconsin home, officials said yesterday.

    Cops declined to provide details but Karsten's ex-wife told The Post that investigators have labeled it a suicide.

    Karsten pleaded guilty in July to failing to report about $607,000 in income he made as a sideline reporter for ESPN college football games between 1999 and 2002.

    He was sentenced to serve 11 months in prison and nine months home confinement.

    He was supposed to report to a federal lockup in Rochester, Minn., last Thursday but never showed up, his ex-wife said. — David K. Li

    Kind of sucks if you're a betting man. Whoever Alberts picked to win was always a lock to lose.

    Kind of brings a new element back to college football, this is more significant than people realize. :cool:

    I actually didn't mind Alberts.

    The guy that needs to be fired is Aaron Taylor from ABC. I will never forget the time last year when he said "It doesn't matter how they do it, Texas just needs to win. W-E-N."

    The other studio guys just look at him like "wtf" as they go to commercial break.
