ESPN Proves they are the hype machine

[bear7625]

Nope. Outside of MNF, ESPN is a complete waste of my time, and I rarely tune in, instead choosing to get my NFL news from NFL Network.

And how can you go and say the guys on NFLN are bad when ESPN still has the tired, old and unoriginal Chris Berman, the incomprehensible Mike Ditka and the always ignorant Cris Carter and Keyshawn Johnson? You want bad, that's completely unwatchable coverage right there!

No thanks. I'll take NFL Network over those two-bit ***-clowns any day.

NFL Network is still the best!!!

my only problem with NFLN is Warren Sapp....though he does have good insight, I can't stand the dude

That's fair. I find him to be a loudmouth myself, though every once in a while he's good for a genuine laugh. Either way, the NFLN crew is 100 times better than the abomination that is ESPN.

oh yeah, very much so, I'll usually watch NFLN and Fox or flip over and see what ESPN is doing. The ONLY guy that I really like at ESPN is Adam Schefter who NFLN should NEVER have let get away.

ESPN is to TV what BleacherReport is to writing

You said it, and while Bleacher Report can sometimes be insightful, it's not something I would go by.

That's why they think Kevin Kolb is the next Kurt Warner, ESPN said it.

 

[Forget Favre]

This is the channel that had such a bromance with Favre.
Even during his disasterous final season, they still kept going on about him as if he had won 10 Super Bowls in a row.
I dunno why they bothered with this guy. Sure, he had the records but he didn't have the wins to back it up.

Anyway, here's some Chris Berman outtakes that you might like if you hate ESPN.

I can't tell if these guys are just making a gag reel, but it's still pretty good.

Apparently it is a joke. Still pretty good though.
