No....there is no bias

Espn only shows Henry's picture on their heisman piece. Only Henry! The entire talk last night on espn was only about Henry.....with his highlights and how great he is.....
But no, there is no bias.
Let me explain something to the ones here who keep saying we, the majority are just parinoid.......you are either blind or stupid or both..
Rant over

True. But at some point the nonsense has to stop.

And bowl bids. Remember the incest bowl with LSU and Bama.

When you take the math out if the equation, all that is left is politics. Heisman is a popularity contest no matter how you slice it, and ESPN controls the spin. I for one am now a CBS Sports fan. They have been solidly positive on Watson and the Tigers.
ESPN and their Disney Stalinist masters can felate me.

in it, but then they lost to an unranked Iowa St. team. ESPN had it all set up for a SEC-Big 12 matchup, then OSU blew it.

It may not have directly changed the outcome of a game, but high school kids all over the place see ESPN plastering the SEC all over every college football page, talk show, and highlight reel and it influences them to go to one of those schools so they can be the next player ESPN highlights. So while it may not change a game that we can notice, it has doubtless had an influence on the outcome of many games.

One of two things is apparent...
1. ESPN is bias
2. The SEC could compete in the NFL.
Those that answer 2 should refrain from posting about sports ever.

Wel the votes are already in, so it doesn't matter

You are right, ESPN has more votes than any other single organization. Luckily we got SI and CBS Sports mostly voting for Watson. Even some on ESPN.

So, when someone commits a crime do you say it doesn't matter - the crime has already been committed so do nothing and don't try to find the person guilty and prosecute for damages?

It's not a crime. Just change the channel.
