Does Last Nights Comment Proves That There's An Anti-Redskin Movement At ESPN?

DM72 · 12-26-2010, 03:29 AM

After the Cowboys got beat by the Cards, ESPN showed a stat saying the Cowboys have had five 10 loss seasons this decade. They showed the Redskins had four 10 loss seasons. Then the ESPN analyst said, "if the Redskins lose one of their remaining two games, they'd join the Cowboys with five 10 loss seasons this decade, let's hope they take the Cowboys off the hook."

I never knew it was ESPN's job to root for a team to lose to take another team off the hook.

Who really cares what people think. I actually injoy having a coach that does what he thinks what is best for the team.

I just heard that comment and it was strang what he said.

Whereever you are wherever you go the media will always suck red baboon ass.

I'm not really into the "media hates the Skins" craze, but After hearing that, there might be something to it.

I feel like if the Redskins were consistently good in the NFL they wouldn't hear half the criticism they hear now. If you want to stop the "bias", start winning.

espn definitely dislikes the redskins, aside from possibly adam schefter and scott van pelt. espn has their favorites and they have the teams they dislike. they love the cowboys, patriots, eagles for sure.

ESPN loves the Cowboys...plus we're the loudest 8-8 or worse team every year. We're like the ugly chick trying to scream out the street "look at how hot I am".

Not that I care that much about what ESPN thinks about the Redskins, the comment is proof positive the Redskins could use a make-over, and a polishing of their projected image. The hits will keep coming until a change is made.

Amen, become one of the best teams in the league and you stop being the butt of jokes. The organization has only itself to blame

Do you mean a change of Name or Logo?? Or like DS selling the team?

It's quite obvious and "disrespectful" to borrow a term coined by some of their peers. If we should ever turn this thing around, all the talking heads would be kissing ass and bending over backwards to pump us up.

But don't be fool by it. They do have an ingrained dislike for us.

I think it's to stuff like "winning the offseason" transactions and stuff.

ESPN is opinion "journalism" which is why I don't watch those ass clowns. About the only thing I watch on that station is MNF with the sound off.

Yeah.. I'm glad we have a coach doing it his way, and the Redskins always have media up their ass more then other team.

Always been that way, but oh well.
