BSPN is split down the middle. I used to abuse my XM radio by listening to ESPN on it. My schedule only allowed for late night listening, so I was exposed mostly to Jason Smith who is the most redonkulous Jest fan on the planet. During the 2007 season, that, along with ESPN breaking every story trying to tear down the Pats (Moss issues, Walsh, Specter), completely turned me off to ESPN unless the World Cup is on. Not that they're different from any other media outlet, but it is what it is.

lol they are back at it, the fat guy who said BAL was going to handle us is now calling the win fishy, and Parker is salivating at it all.

PATS ARE TAINTED, BRADY IS OVERRATED, WAAH, MY NY has 20 teams and BOS wins more WAH.

Hes being very reasonable in this discussion, the former player on the show thinks the Pats cheat, they're in the heads of other players apparently, he said the Pats come out in the second half and play with much more precision and insinuates its something nefarious, Skips says its because BB is a better coach.

I read that too. It's incorrect though. Scoreboards are run by the home team. But, so what?

ESPN are a bunch of Patriot haters. All i've been hearing from them since sunday night is how the Ravens should be in the Superbowl, yet they fail to mention the Ravens only got back in the game on a TD that should have been pulled back with a personal foul. Liberal minded sports journalists with a national audience who aren't from Massachusetts or New England just seem to hate the Patriots and always will.

Maybe we need a dog killer or a murderer on our team to get some respect.

This is why I can only watch New England Tailgate without getting angry.

It's really unbelievable to me that people start threads to complain about television. People can't be this stupid, especially when it's pointed out time and time again that it's not real and they have to say controversial s--t to get people to watch. The only thing you can do to support them is to keep starting threads about it. Why are you helping them to lower the bar?

Look........ Can we elevate this to "official" controversy status yet? I think all we need to do is have a name for it.

Scoreboard-gate............

I'm not sure that has quite the "oomph" we're looking for here. Just not sexy enough IMO.

players and teams are supposed to go by the yard markers, not the scoreboard

the ravens organization failed at attention to detail

it should have never even gotten to the FG, but evans lacked the attention to detail to complete the play.

the scoreboard was wrong, big deal......the ravens had everything at their disposal to execute the play the way they needed to....it was a 32 yarder ferchrissakes.

the pats also cheated because their fans were loud

the pats also cheated because their home field is in foxboro and not baltimore

all 4 of the ravens losses were to non-playoff teams......all they had to do was win one of them and this game would have been in baltimore

they screwed the pooch in every regard......efff them

How many times has Brady let the clock run down to call a TO for a FG?

Its not rocket surgery.
