Paul Tagliabue’s (NFL) exhibition charade serves only coaches with fingers on the rewind and fast-forward buttons on their VCRs. It’s the worst time in any sport. Where else can an overall No. 1 draft pick such as Ki-Jana Carter vanish without a trace? . . .

Winning games is something for fans to filter through fragile psyches. It is not a high priority for the athletes.
