is the article serious or not?

Every now and then, we will attempt to write the worst sports column on earth.

I think you missed "Every now and then, we will attempt to write the worst sports column on earth. "

I didn't miss it, I simply said the article would generate some fun responses

That said, I think in this case, their attempt was a rousing success!

I especially like the 4th comment down, the guys obviously has no clue it's not supposed to be taken seriously. God I hope he isn't an SU fan.

No coach swears like a banshee at officials like Coach K so I guess JB has learned that from their Team USA days together.

I don't understand the point of the exercise by Grantland. Let's see how many already pissed off Cuse fans we can piss off even more? I just don't get ESPN anymore.

What's their excuse the rest of the time?

I saw that, and still didnt think it was a parody article... same thing with my collegue who sent the article to me.

Am i getting so old, that i dont think that article was remotely funny or witty?

am i missing some kind of humor?

or can you write for a huge website and make a half hearted attempt at labeling something that isn't even funny as a parody article and make fun of everyone who thinks its weird?

Its not like this was an onion or sports pickle article. I read parody articles daily. I guess I just don't get this 1.

I can't believe people here are mad at this article.
