How the Sports World dealing with the Death of Anna Nicole Smith?

Today, the world has lost Anna Nicole Smith. A women who popped on the scene in Playboy, then strutted across your tvs in Guess jeans commercials, and made a statement by showing the world that a 26 year old stripper can love a rich old man. A woman who showed cable veiwers everywhere that she was still around and living the good life after the passing of her husband. Then became an inspiration to everyone when she dropped the weight of a small country in Africa. After all this she faced tragedy when she lost the life of her son when giving birth to her daughter.

How can the sports world handle such a loss? I wanted to find out.

I first went to the news websites to see what was going on. CNN, Fox News, MSN, local news, etc. all had some type of breaking coverage. Even the front page of yahoo, and other online sites had coverage. So I ventured to the sports sites to see how they where handling it.

First, I went to the Cable 24hr Sport Superpower, ESPN.com, but nothing... There is something about the Cowboys and Dale Jr. wants to buy something, maybe a car or something like that. There was a banner ad of a hot girl holding a basketball, promoting the Road Warrior: Hardwood Sweet.

Then I moved over to Sports Illustrated website, SI.com, NOTHING. There is something about Prince, something from a Dr. Z about grading announcers, and a story about Wisconsin, but who cares about cheese at a time like this. But they do have something about the Swimsuit models.

CBS Sportsline only had a story about a guy named Wade and the Cowboys not confirming that he is the new coach and had a picture of another guy wearing a goofy hat. Dissappointing. Where are the reporters?

MSN Fox sports had a story about who will be number one in the NFL draft with my boy Brady Quinn. Like all the other sports pages nothing about the great loss America experienced today.

As fans of sports. We must make a stand for such of an outrage like this. It is the duty of a reporter to report what is going on. These sites should have covered how the sports world was dealing with the loss of Anna Nicole Smith.
