If it was any other team last night who won aganist the colts... They would actually get coverage on the winning team Instead they are talking about the losing team ...literally all bspn has had to say is the colts lost here...the colts lost there .. Not one ounce of how well the jets had their number The channel is a complete shitshow. /rant
My feeling is that all the "experts" on these websites/shows predicted the Colts to be in the Superbowl. To them, the Colts losing is the bigger story.
I literally had to turn my TV off once they went to Scott Van Pelt after the game last night. Why Scott Van Pelt??? ugh
I can't stand the hate for the Jets on the sports networks. They will hate on this team until the end of time. Even after the talking heads that picked the Colts for the Super Bowl finally realize the Colts will be in a dog fight just to win their division this year (very good chance imho they lose to NE, MIA, PITT, 1-2 loses against NFC south and I think 2 losses in division this year) they'll make excuses about how the Jets victory wasn't a great upset because its a down year for the Colts or some BS like that.
my favorite was right after the broadcast they went to ESPN for highlights and of course the first thing they show is the one INT Fitz threw. Over and over. The Just just dominated the Colts and the first highlight they show on repeat is the Colts INT. Of course that was just to highlight the new pilon camera. Or something.
immediately after talking about the colts loss, which arguably is the bigger story as they are 0-2 and lost to a bottom 5 team last year at home in primetime while most considered them to be a superbowl contender at the start of the season, they talk about the jets. stephen A smith said they are his wildcard team and praised fitz and was drooling over the D. he said when richardson comes back he has no idea how anyone is going to be able to score any points. where skip said he thinks the bills are slightly better (lol) anyways moral of the story is they did talk about the jets
My eyes will NEVER watch First Take. It's like self inducing cancer in my opinion. It's just the fact that after a nice lose it's hard to find any legitimate coverage breaking down the jets AND the colts. Sadly it's all on the colts and listening to the radio today and hearing people bash what Steve Young said(Said we could go the distance and be a team in the playoffs) is just down right funny. It's hard not to watch espn though I try when everything else on TV is absolute garbage
Moral of the story is that both of those fools are a bunch of bozo's...They exaggerate situations and make proclamations that are asinine every time. Spend some time reading Skip Brainless and Stephen A Shit's twitter feeds. You'll finally get a chance to read sentences that resemble horse manure.
Not to mention everyone feted Luck as a future HOF'er in waiting. Right now he looks a little overrated, feasting on a bad division and a one-legged Peyton in the playoffs last year.
There's enough First take conversation to make this whole thread smell like shit .... BSPN and others have an agenda A MAJOR agenda we've all bare witness to. They just can't say anything good about any of their teams that are not in that agenda
Fwiw I grew up on espn so there's that But now as an old man I see how stupid this all has become and I've hated espn for a decade now I turn the jets game on at 12:58pm Sundays Never ever will watch the pre and post game analysis or crap Glad the marketplace is changing and espn is clearly hurting- too arrogant, too big, too dumb
