chw42 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Some national media outlets (starts with E ends with N) were talking about if Cutler's NFC Championship fiasco had anything to do with RGIII going out there playing hurt. Absolutely stupid and ridiculous. You can't let what the media, some meatball fans, and players who think they're tough sway your judgement. Your entire career is far more important than one wild card playoff game. It's not the super bowl, it's not even the NFC championship. If RGIII was thinking about something like that, then he would have gotten hurt eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(EDIT: save NBA Countdown - best show on that channel that thankfully leads into actual basketball games) This 100%. I never watch ESPN except for Monday Night Football or if the Sox or Bulls are playing on there. I honestly can't remember the last time I sat down and watched Sportscenter or Baseball Tonight. If ESPN wants to provide the quality of coverage and analysis that MLB, NBA and NFL networks provide they desperately need an overhaul. They've had the same old people doing the same old shtick for 20+ years (I.E. Berman, Scott). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 ESPN is killing sports media the same way MTV killed the music video I really wished the NFL and MLB formed their own network as the programming gets thin in the offseason.

bmags Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Pretty sure the music video killed the music video. But anyway, I'm willing to deal with all that bulls*** from ESPN so long as they keep putting out their apps. I'd be very sad without the watch ESPN app. Also, college gameday is the best on saturday mornings. But really espn is just modeling after fox news. They'll have their opinion anchors say outrageous things and then cover those outrageous things as a news story to cover where "some people are wondering whether Tebow will be the greatest QB ever, or greatestest, over to you john" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If RGIII was thinking about something like that, then he would have gotten hurt eventually. I heard Cutler come up many times on ESPN as they discussed RG3. Most of the time, they used it as a likely outcome had Shannahan pulled Griffin out before the injury got worse. I can only recall once or maybe twice that it was insinuated that Cutler remained a p**** because of it. On the other hand, not ONCE was it mentioned that Jay actually incurred a legitimate injury in that game. Or that he's an extremely tough SOB.
