Eat it ESPN

[Established1971]

A huge division win is always made that much sweeter when the media spent the entire week slobbering over the Eagles.

and during the game, my goodness every two minutes was another graphic showing some stat praising the recent history of the eagles. I was getting sick

 

[Oh_Canada]

Collinsworth is objective for the most part, but slobbering all over the Eagles youth when the Cowboys have some youthful talent of their own just rubbed me the wrong way.

I get it, but you have to admit the Iggles do have some quality young players...Collinsworth was just pointing out the obvious. Otherwise, he is a good analyst and together with Michaels are far less nauseating than any telecast with that ******** Buck even if he is paired up with the professional Aikman.

Except at the end of the game when he said something to the effect of "the Eagles controlled this game, its a huge loss for them". Did I miss something, I don't remember the Eagles controlling the game. Collinsworth hates the Cowboys, plain and simple.

He and Michaels are a&& clowns.

**** you ESPN.. **** you Rod Woodson..

 

[HoosierCowboy]

they will say:
"but they still need to win in December..."
and when we do
"they should have won more; all that talent and they couldn't win a playoff game"

not sure what makes ex-players intelligent enough to make any kind of analysis (Sanders, Emmitt, etc.)

 

[superpunk]

I noticed the same thing. It's almost like they had no words to express their "disappointment." It was weird.

I wish I could find video of this. They were miserable.

Also I was watching NFL Network after the Dallas game to see the postgame interviews, it was like a tomb in there. Eisen and Deion seemed depressed that Dallas had won (and that Roy had performed, which they were making a HUGE deal out of) and Mooch just looked sleepy.

I didn't pay much attention, but the only thing I heard Deion say was that he was excited for the Cowboys. I must have missed it.:

 

[TellerMorrow34]

You aint kidding, everyone dismissed Dallas.

And I love that. Keep dismissing them. That's exactly how I want it to be all season long.

 

[Precise_Improvement]

Linda Cohn much be suicidal after her gnats loss and the Cowboys win.

Ugliest woman on TV bar none. Single-handedly destroying Hd tuners across America.

That's the issue, how many smart jocks did you know growing up? I'm not saying there aren't any( there are).I'll pay attention when the run throw and catch but outside of that, half these dudes are hillariously inarticulate.

He changed his tune because I turned over there about 3 minutes after the game ended and Eisen asked him if he was on the Cowboys bandwagon and Deion said no and that he is waving Vikings and Saints pom poms only. I still remember Deion saying releasing TO was a horrible move and we would win 7 games this season. I would love for someone to call him out on air. I wish I worked for the NFL Network I would definitely call him out.

Dude, NFL Network is always quiet and reserved. That's why they have the best NFL show on TV. Eisen and Deion are freakin' awesome.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not disputing what he did or didn't say. I'm just recalling what I heard.

Actually, I was too busy watching BSPN to see if any of them would eat any crow. Trent Dilfer is the only analyst on there with a modicum of objectivity.

Yes, how dare he say two teams with better records than us are better. And how dare he state his opinion on a controversial move.

Please, you guys are going crazy with this stuff. NFL network is awesome.

 

[USMarineVet]

All those analysts (and I use the term loosely) on ESPN do is look at the standings and say, ok this team's on top so I'll praise them this week. This team lost, I'll put them down. Unless you're Pittsburg, New England or Indianapolis of course.

Most of them have very little insight and RARELY predict a team is going to turn it around, or falter whichever the case may be.

I watch ESPN when we win but I take a pass when we lose. The wins for the highlights and to see if this might be the week they give us some respect. The losses, well.. it's obvious what we've done wrong when we lose so I don't need to hear their spin on it.

For all the segments they do on what we've been doing wrong, Jerry Jones, the scoreboard, etc., I'm curious to see what they have to say about us headed into Green Bay. A good team, but also a 4 - 4 team.

Sounds like you have your Deion panties in a bunch.

I didn't say anything about the NFL Network not being awesome. I love the Network I just said that certain people on there will not give the Cowboys credit no matter what and that has shown to be Deion last night and Woodson and Faulk all the time.

As far this nonsense 'Yes, how dare he say two teams with better records than us are better. And how dare he state his opinion on a controversial move.'

I don't give a rats *** who Deion waves his pom poms for. My point is this Deion tends to go for who is hot at the moment. If the Vikings or Saints crumble and don't make it to the Super Bowl everybody like YOU will not even think twice to call him out on it and just keep it moving. He picked us to win 7 games I think the day of or day after TO was released and I guarantee he won't own up to that prediction and say he was wrong.

As for this 'And how dare he state his opinion on a controversial move.'
If you don't think getting rid of TO was one of the smartest moves this franchise has made then I don't know if there is much anyone can do for you.

ummmm...i cant think of anyone who has more legitimacy discussing the sport other than those who played it.....now i do believe most are biased one way or the other....otoh when a writer discusses the game everyone says they dont know nothing cause they never played the game.....so who is qualified to speak about NFL?

 

[dfense]

Deion certainly isn't. He isn't waving Cowboy pom poms. He is waving the Vikings and Saints pom pom. I say GOOD. Stay off our bandwagon because that punk predicted us to win what 7 games.

Deion is just still pissed about Jerry cleaning house. He lost his gig as the "mentor" to the delinquent Pac Man.
