That interview wasn't funny at all. It was one of the most pathetic things I've seen on ESPN. It was a joke the way they handled that with him. I'm not defending lying about his age, but it was really, really pathetic what they did.

I'm not defending lying about his age, but it was really, really pathetic what they did. Yeah, I mean, they treated him like he was a pedophile getting caught on Dateline. It was pretty cruel to bring him in for an interview and emabrrass him like that...and why? For ratings? So this guy Ferry could get his name known? Hundreds--seriously, hundreds--of Dominican, Venezuelan, etc. kids lie about their age to entice scouts. Big fucking deal! Yeah, right now he's 33, but the Astros acquired him for the player he is. Why humiliate him in April of his first season in a new city? So the fans will hate him? I don't get how ESPN conducts this kind of an interview. They're a network that completely sucks up to athletes; they need to. So why bring a guy in under false pretenses and humiliate him? They could've reported it when they found it, they could've advised the Astros, but instead they choose to bring him in and embarrass him like that? I really do hate ESPN. |

I hate when people generalize hatred throughout a network, but wow, I hate ESPN right now so much. Just an awful thing to do. There was no point to it at all.

I really do hate ESPN. words well spoken, I couldn't watch that whole interview because I was too embarrassed for the guy... with that being said he can still be a productive player despite the fact that he really is two years older than his papers say. On a similar note anybody remember Danny Almonte? |

ESPN has their tabloid moments just like the rest of the media.
Just a pathetic attempt to grab headlines.
