Want a crotch shot of Nadal? Don't hold your breath

It's hard to think of a more dignified sportswoman than Mary Pierce, so it was especially disgusting to see what the ESPN camera crew did to her right before the start of her French Open quarterfinal with Lindsay Davenport. Pierce bent down to re-tie her shoes, and when she did, her shirt slipped, exposing the tops of her breasts. The camera went directly to her breasts and stayed there for a very long time.

With Maria Sharapova out of the tournament, ESPN now has to get more creative in finding ways to sell sex instead of women's tennis.
