ESPN needs to stop being Court TV

I have Mike & Mike and such on in the background at work and I am disgusted with the Plaxico Burress coverage. OK, it's a story. It's not OJ Simpson making a run for the border. It's a certified dumbass pulling a dumbass stunt. Why is this story lasting more than a day? Why is it monopolizing NFL coverage in a week where teams are fighting for their playoff lives?

All week long it's been hour after hour of pontificating about Plaxico or the legal shenanigans of the Diuretic Six. This is not why I'm a fan of football and not why I tune into ESPN.

It's been so bad that even the target audience of this East Coast bias blitzkrieg has to be getting tired of it. And now some dork espn reporter comes to the board and wants to do a fluff piece on fan rituals.

Just cover fuging football already!

When it comes to high profile athletes having legal problems...

ESPN=Fox News with game highlights.

They've been like this for awhile and its sad that instead of devoting more coverage to the actual on the field stuff, they'd rather forcefeed you Pacman Jones & Plaxico Burress. I dont watch it like I used to.

    • Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.
    • I'd think we could get one of those from Dallas for... whatever.
