According for the rules to their stupid song contest...people had to write a "new original song" that did not violate any "copywrite rules"
Hmmm..
a guy singing a parody of the Rolling Stones "Paint it Black" won...
The prize was valued at $11.600.00 according to espn's website...
By winning that prize they were in violation of their own rules...and the guy that won should have to pay the Stones a fee for his "good fortune"
I was baffled listening to the show today (why I listen...I dunno) how that could give away a prize to someone when it blatantly violates their own rules....
The rules also stated that you couldn't use the words "Bears" or "Super Bowl"....didn't the guy use both?????
AGGGH...why do I care.....!?

Forgot to add.....straight from the ESPN rules for that contest...

"Each entry must be the original creative work and/or property of the participant and must not contain copyrighted materials or any other materials, which may be restricted, prohibited or outlawed by Federal, state or local laws. All entries and their content become the property of Sponsor and will not be returned."

NOTHING TOO ORIGINAL ABOUT STEALING THE TUNE OF PAINT IT BLACK.
WHOOPS
As moneygrubbing and sue happy as the stones are....wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to get paid for their Vitamin Water/Urlacher advertisement....

That guy's going to owe the feds about $3400 in (say it like Jiggs) KASH.

could this be sean's last day at the helm of s&r ???

Mac and even CS have been hinting about it for weeks.
You would figure they would use him for guests and bs, but once the SB is done and all those asshats are done championing the colts all day, dont you think it would be the perfect time to cut ties?

I think its a perfect situation.
And what the hell does Sean know about college basketball, the NBA, or for that matter BASEBALL.

That show is doomed to fail if anything other than football is playing.
Oh wait, it sucks anyways, nvm.

I hope he is there for Monday so when the Bears win he can throw a hissy fit after everyone emails and calls in on what a dope he is for picking the colts. Then he can leave.

According to copyright laws, parody songs are considered creative work.

Salisbury - "Those in that are ignorant in the media know they are ignorant."

Rosenbloom - "No they don't"

I'll give the show credit. It gives me a laugh every morning.
