Terrelle Pryor Will Star In ESPN's Next QB Camp With Jon Gruden

Terrelle Pryor's summer odyssey has now taken another interesting step, straight into the arms of Monday Night Football analyst Jon Gruden.  The maligned former Buckeye and current NFL prospect sat down with Gruden for one of his "QB Camp" specials that will air on June 30 at 9pm ET.  Excerpts will also run during the week on SportsCenter leading up to the special.  Let's look at the TP saga step by step, because I'm having a hard time figuring this out... Excuse me if I'm the only one that is troubled by Terrelle Pryor's relationship with ESPN and the way the sports media has covered him the last four years.  It was ESPN and the sports media that built Pryor up to impossible heights.  It was ESPN and the sports media that killed him for not living up to that hype (in spite of going 31-4 as a starter and winning a Rose Bowl and winning a Sugar Bowl and being MVP in both of those games).  It was ESPN and the sports media that shamed him throughout the Tressel scandal.  And now, it's ESPN and the sports media that will cling to his story of trying to make it in the NFL... and ESPN will get a TV special and a week's worth of SportsCenter segments out of it.  Here's a preview from SportsCenter today and thoughts about the special... Terrelle Pryor's story says more about the power of ESPN and the sports media to mold and shape someone's career than almost any athlete in the last decade.  Doesn't it make you feel queasy that after destroying Terrelle Pryor's quarterbacking ability, character, and almost everything else about the man... that ESPN is now going to trumpet out Jon Gruden and his QB Camp to try and resurrect his NFL hopes and further exploit his football life?  Don't get me wrong, I love Gruden's QB Camp shows, which is one of ESPN's best new programs of the last several years.  But, this time it seems different.  This time it seems like ESPN is taking advantage of a fallen Pryor, a narrative that ESPN has gladly taken part in.  Sports media outlets have gone after Ohio State and Terrelle Pryor with a ferociousness rarely seen before. Pryor has nobody to blame for his present circumstances besides himself, yet it seems like we're going all the way back to his signing day in this next step of his football career.

NFL Monday Night Football Odds: Philadelphia at Washington - Bodog ...

Forced to let newcomer Sherm Lewis direct the offense, Jim Zorn won’t have to worry about losing his job as the Washington Redskins host the Philadelphia Eagles tonight.

Monday night football odds have the Eagles listed as 7.5-point road favorites.

The switch to Lewis as the play-caller came almost immediately following a 14-6 home loss to previously winless Kansas City last Sunday.

The Redskins are averaging 13.2 points, fourth-fewest in the league. They’ve failed to get into the end zone in two of their three games at FedExField.

The Eagles were heavily favored to win a third consecutive game against a struggling opponent last Sunday, but lost 13-9 to an Oakland team that had been outscored 96-16 over its previous three games.

Philadelphia’s 116 rushes rank among the fewest in the NFL, and Brian Westbrook has managed just 184 yards and one touchdown on 38 carries.
