Title: ESPN's NFL Countdown
Post by StegRock on Sep 24^th, 2006, 12:56pm

Is it me or does it seem like the old guys want to take Michael Irvin out to the woodshed and jack him up, ESPECIALLY my Bronco boy, Tom Jackson? Mind you, I think they are justified,... and I am a Michael Irvin apologist. But, doing the disagree just to disagree, especially when you are countering good sense with useless two cents. [smiley=twocents.gif] Anyway, T.J. just looks at Irvin with SUCH vitriole sometimes... [smiley=silence.gif] followed by a shit-eatin' grin, [smiley=shiteatingrin.gif] and I empathize with him. Anybody else noticin' this...???

Oh yea, big time!! They think he is a dumb ass. Last week Tom Jackson had to apoligize for asking Irvin on air, "Are you a Retard?"

The entire ESPN show, Both the pregame as well as the monday nite coverage is bad. I hate the change.

The change does suck sk...but you know they aint tryin' to sell it to guys our age anyway. Guys our age watch football for the football!! Doesn't matter much to the powers that be how we spend our money. For the most part, they know we won't easily throw our money at crap packaged as a "product". The 20 something's are the future spending demographic now. They will package and shovel their crap using pyrotechnics and lazer lights...all the while forsaking the essence of football. Starting to look like the XFL as far as coverage of professional sports goes if you ask me.....but I know...no one asked!!
