Good Lord, I should hope software does replace sports "journalism". Pick up a major city's paper. Read the first section. Then read the sports section. The quality of reporting is so low as to be laughable, but the sports section IS EVEN WORSE.
Don't even get me started about tee vee sportscasters. What a pack of toadying, cliche-spouting ex-fratboys. Feh. The closest these empty suits get to reporting is when they state the scores. After that, they depart Reality Station.

This strikes me as standing up in the middle of the play and shouting "That so-called Romeo is really Steve! What is this twaddle about Juliet?! Steve isn't even interested in women!" I mean, I sort of get where you are coming from, but I think your understanding of the purpose of the exercise is so at odds to everyone else's that it makes it difficult to engage. Sports are a form of performance entertainment, and the sports section of the newspaper is an extension of the performance.
