I can’t believe this actually happpened, and to ESPN of all people.
That scam was broken by a Philly newspaper actually sending a reporter to find the team.
The scam I’m talking about would should been busted by a simple internet search…and ESPN didn’t even do that!
The result was the lackey HS team got the literal piss beat out of it, took home a bunch of loot for their trouble, and ESPN was left holding the bag with egg on their face explaining to their viewers why they got to watch a boring beatdown instead of the competitive game they were promised.
