Commentary Bias?

These past few weeks I've been on both the Cardinals forum and Packers forum, and every time I look on their boards to see how they felt about the game, their fans are complaining about bad commentary. How it seems they are bias towards Newton and the Panthers.

Okay first of all, this rookie has been impressive. Of course they are going to be interested in the things he is doing after an unprecendented off-season. This guy is setting records and looks to be the next big QB in the league.

Second of all, people need to get over who is commentating their games, and that goes for some of you in here as well. (I say this in love.:D ) I could care less if Lou Holtz was broadcasting our games, I don't turn on the tv to hear people commentate, I turn it on to watch the game. You think I care if they get my players' names wrong? If we become a great team and stay on this track we are going in getting better, everyone will know the names of our players.

I do find it funny however, that people mostly complain when it seems like the other team is being mentioned more, yet have no problem when their team is constantly being praised.

If any retarded cheeseheads are bitching about Mora being biased towards the Panthers then their dumb asses weren't listening to the same game that I was.

I don't pay much attention to the announcers but I've heard that he both loves Newton too much and hates Newton. I personally heard nothing that stuck out in either direction. Maybe everyone is just too sensitive. It cant be both.

Every fanbase thinks the commentators are biased toward the other team.

Yeah I agree with that, and I didn't really mind card fans complaining about the commentary. Yet I kind of chuckled when I saw packer fans complaining. Going back to week 1, a cardinal fan posted that the commentary wouldn't be so biased once the panthers went up against the champs, yet here I find the packer fans complaining in the same fashion.:D

This reminds me of when Vick first jumped in the league. I was miserable watching Falcons/Panthers games because no matter what Vick did, good or bad, the announcers could not go 2 minutes without mentioning something about him and how dynamic he is.

That being said, sucks for everyone else not to have a guy like Cam.

the only person i have ever had a problem with commenting on our game was tory holt last year.

nothing against him as a person, he was just painfully horrible at it. the hate for guys like aikman and buck confound me after hearing holt stumble through the entire game. at least they are coherent and can finish thoughts.

I agree with this statement 314%, except for Joe Buck games. I thought Randy Moss "mooning" Lambeau during the 2004 playoffs was pure awesome, but Buck spent the rest of that game bitching about it.

      Bleacher report not buying Panthers’ hype

      The crappy 3-14 Las Vegas Raiders have Fernando Mendoza as their *backup* Quarterback behind Kirk Cousins. Ponder that for a minute while watching Kenny Pickett highlights.

      Off Season topic: What Panthers question do you have that you know will never be answered?

      By strato · Posted

      It was so badly misjudged and handled.  The whole Reich thing was the product of other choices not wanting the job. And Tepper was hell bent and determined to have his trendy offensive HC and his franchise QB.  With no waiting.    Gettleman was an oaf to me but he said it right when he said don’t shop hungry. (You know, like he himself did after Norman).

      How anyone can look at our roster last year that went 8-9 and say this Panthers team this year is going to do worse is insane to me. The only position that you can make an argument that we got worse at is running back. And even that one isn't completely sure, because we don't know what to expect from Jonathan Brooks yet.  The one thing Gettleman got right is that big men allow you to compete. And we have improved both trenches this off season.  Every team in our division lost key components of their teams. Atlanta doesn't even have a quarterback right now. New Orleans overspent on a second running back and drafted an injury prone wide receiver in the top 10. The Buc got lucky with Bain, but he's still a rookie and they lost Mike Evans and Lavonte David, two LEADERS for their team. This division is very winnable.  We have a tough schedule on paper right now. But it's also important to understand that we have added more talent to this team. Last year we did a lot with a lot less. Now we actually have some capability to rise to other teams' talent level.  I see 10-7 as a realistic possibility. I think our floor is 7-10 if injuries start to stack up, but again, our depth is better this year.
