Re: Game Coverage Sucks
 

ESPN still talking about the Eagles.

I guess them going 0-2 is bigger news than the Skins going 2-0. :doh:

Everyone except Tom Jackson picked the Eagles. A lot of eggs on the face at ESPN tonight. :)[/QUOTE]

And on 50 other states according to the ESPN poll. And me I guess. I didn't have the faith. Slap me around if you'd like.

[quote=Smooter;353274]I agree. I hate Charles Barkley.[/quote]
I know Hooskins has my back.

Don't hate on Sir Charles. He is amazing. I love how randomly stupid/funny he is.

Re: Game Coverage Sucks
 

Somehow I knew that would happen -- if the Skins won, the story would be "What's Wrong with Philly".

Regardless of who he picked to win. His favorite team is the Skins. He does commentary from his head and not his heart, as well as Korn. They are probably more devout skins fans than the both of us, but they have an unbias job to perform week in and week out. THEY ARE BOTH FROM AND IN LOVE WITH DC!

Yeah, why does ESPN feel compelled to have non-football related guests in the booth in every broadcast?

Re: Game Coverage Sucks
 

The pre-game coverage was ridiculous as well. You'd have thought the eagles were playing themselves. I only saw glimpses of the B&G here and there.

Being subjected to Barkley was torture. His blabbering about the Pats made me want to kick in my TV screen.

Woah! Slow down there. I picked the Redskins

Re: Game Coverage Sucks
 

Worst coverage of all-time. My wife was yelling at the TV because it was so bad and she wanted some football talk (I love her :)). Kornheiser is the absolute worst, Tirico doesn't keep things on track, Jaws is alright but they never let the guy talk football. Barkley just made things worse and basically ruined the whole third quarter plus they kept showing shots of those four idiots sitting in the booth rather than actually talking about or showing anything happening on the field. Literally the worst NFL coverage I've ever seen.

Oh, and then there was Barkley who just restated the same three points for 45 minutes, unbearable! Plus the announcers just kept repeated the same hackneyed soundbites on the Redskins and how they bring in high-priced players, etc. etc. like they have not looked at anything the Skins have done this offseason and have nothing relevant to say about what was happening in the game. I could go on forever! NFLN is at least giving the Skins some love and Adam Schefter and TD actually pointed out the obvious point that all the 'experts' just look at what happened last year rather than remembering that the Skins were 10-6 in 2005.

Oh, and can we get some info on the Randy Thomas injury during the telecast? Geez!

Re: Game Coverage Sucks
 

not to mentiom 3rd qtr when skins were owning the birds. they didnt even show the footage in full screem serioudly! how about that bulls&*t commercial before the game with mcshabby blowing off all the skins defenders. this could be a special year guys if we can keep the line together. Braves on the Warpath!
