Here are a few excerpts from Steeler fans venting about ESPN. Doesn't this sounds familiar Dolphin fans!!! So don't get upset about ESPN because ESPN football stands for E-verything S-teelers P-redict -N-egatively.
Excerpts:
Jesus....I sat down for dinner and was too tired/lazy to go hunting for the remote to change two ******ed shows, Around The Horn and Pardon The Interuption. they acted as if the Steelers did not exist...on Around The Horn they were talking about Carson Palmer's win against Cardinal Mooney High School...urr, I mean the Green Bay Packers and said that Palmer looks great but the friend defense might keep them from winning the AFC North, why????? BECAUSE THEY THINK THE RAVENS WERE THE CLASS OF THE AFC NORTH Didn't they learn ANYTHING from saying the same last year?????? The guy from Chicago, Moriotti, or what every his name is, said it first, then the Hick from NY Woody Paige agreed. Then I went down to the basement but when I came back upstairs I see that I just missed Kornheiser talk about Big Ben, I asked my wife what they said and she laughed and said just "more stuff to Jelly Beans you off." Did anyone see what was said? In any event ESPN will pick the Colts, Patriots, Dolphins, Bungholes, Broncos or Ratbirds to win it all every time...I HOPE they never pick the Steelers to win a game, I also hope that Joey Porter, Big Ben, Troy P, Bill Cowher, Willie Parker and Hines Ward were also sitting down to eat dinner and were watching ESPN. If we as fans get fired up imagine the shot in the buddy it must give the players!!!!!!!! :sidelol:
Excerpts:
I share your pain. I can not for the life of me understand why the national media treats the Steelers the way they do. It doesn't help with guys like Boomer Esiason and Chris Collinspuke spewing their hatred for their formal rivals. Does anyone even look at the success the Steelers have consistently had over the last 6 years? One off year that landed us Big Ben but for God's sake. Proves our ability to draft talent.
Regardless of how average Ben has looked all you have to do is look at his record. The path we took last year to win it and no one can give us any credit. They want to jump on the Ravens or Bengal bandwagon, and we know they are rooting for Peyton Manning, just like Joey said! Stop watching these bozos.
Excerpt:
I'm glad that these effing morons continue to keep us low on the expectation radar. Joey P can use this as locker room motivation.
Continue to say it...Ben doesn't have the stats to be an elite QB (except the youngest SB winning QB EVER), FWP is too small to be considered an elite RB, losses of Kimo & ARE are insurmountable, Cowher won't coach next year.
Let them keep talking us all the way to SB XLI!
Excerpt:
There was a time when ESPN was a class act. Now, there just as cheesey as Inside Edition, etc,etc. 5 years ago, they would have brought up T.O.'s latest crimes and left it at that. Now, the T.O. saga carries this washed up network. How lame. MNF is going to be lame also IMO. Now, they have these smashmouthed idiots who think they know football. Mortensen, in my book is the only football guru who I give credibility to, other than him I don't waste my time with these yoyo's.
Excerpt:
Remember when ESPN used to just give you sports highlights and the only commentary was what was happening on said highlight at the time. Remember when they used to just report the sports news, and not form an opinion on every little thing. Remember when prime time used to be chalked full of highlights with only two anchors, not five (that never shut up). Remember when ESPN was all you would watch.
ESPN has become a joke of a network with overpaid loudmouths with no substance, and it's hard to watch it for more than 20 minutes. :sidelol: :sidelol:
Excerpt:
I don't really watch it that much any more. I only watch NFL primetime to catch up on the plays of the day... but it is harder and harder to listen to Boomer and Jackson.
Excerpts:
Every year I hear John Madden say "Well I always say that when you are picking a favorite to win, you have to go with the team that won it the year before." I don't agree with that personally but I sure havne't heard his dumba$$ say it this year!
