Showed the previews of what was upcoming in the show, and instead of showing part of the game or something it was "Superstars fighting in Dallas" and showed a clip of Key and Bledsoe arguing. The bias against the cowboys is so frickin stupid, and getting real old.

Bro there isnt a bias . they show that because people love to see drama. why do you think shows like soprano's , desperate housewives do so well?? people want to see what the outspoken and a tad brash KJ is doing now . People already know Dallas Won, they know all the cowboy fans will be watching the show , there trying to bring in another demographic with the drama. just a good promo for the show ...

Yeah your right. Its just frustrating to see them show something so stupid which was a non factor in the game and overshadow the fact we just pummelled the Eagles, you know?

Well..

But when you zoom back and see it really..

This Iggles team isn't playing well and we didn't beat the much better Iggles of last year when they were much stronger.

This year, they barely beat KC last week and actually got very lucky to win and played poorly overall, they lost to Atlanta before that, which is a stronger team from a year ago.

And we're not playing well from one week to the next.

So it's pretty understandable where the media will come down on this. They are trying to make it look as if the fans in Dallas are over-excited because we've been bums for so long.

They maybe right.

As in this win wasn't a clear indication of where the teams are. We aren't as good as we seemed and Philly isn't that bad..overall.

It was just one of those.."On any given Sundays" Tom Landry used to preach about.

Philly just had one.

We need to just file this away and not get carried away.

Bias?

Please, not this again.

We've not been important enough in several years for there to be a bias against us.

They show that clip because it'll make more people tune in...

Yeah I realized I overreacted, and said that in the second post. I know there wasn't a bias, I was just frustrated thats what they showed. I know it was just to get people to watch.

No way the Eagles were dominated from start to finish. They played bad because we jumped on them and never let off.

No bias, espn is the king of taking a none story and running with it.

Sportscenter just spent as much time on that confrontation as they did on the rest of the game. And they edited it to make it sound as bad as possible, showing clips of both their press conferences with them saying they argued, but not them saying how it was almost immediately diffused
