I can't even say that I care, but I just find it curious. Did ESPN do this in their own self-interest for some reason (slandering Washington? fear of hurting their own ratings in some way)? Because they didn't want to reward (or to be seen as rewarding) such behavior with excessive air time? Because no one cares??? Like I said, I don't know that I care one bit, but just found it odd.
btw, I know it's the same link because I bookmarked the page wanting to show the recap to a friend later. obviously, that didn't work.
