JFF delivers for ESPN2

Our friend and colleague Peter King thinks no one should think all that much about Johnny Manziel.
The numbers prove otherwise.
That was an all-time record for any CFL game on any ESPN network.
In contrast, only 263,000 watched The Basketball Tournament finale on ESPN, and a mere 159,000 tuned in to FS1 for a Big3 basketball game.
“Or at least put it in the roundup section, with a sentence or two max after each start?
Nothing against Manziel; I wish him well.
No NFL draft in recent memory performed like the draft of 2014, all because of Manziel.
The fact that Manziel threw four interceptions and was yanked from a 47-3 meltdown in his CFL debut should go a long way toward minimizing the fascination.
But the audience averaged 406,000 despite the fact that Manziel and his Montreal Alouettes stunk.
It may take a few more blowouts to make those numbers bottom out.
