So funny. Just when I clicked on this post while watching ESPN, caught the Hannah Storm interview with Rex.

Do not worry about it. Wait until Hard Knocks begins and its the Miami Dolphins and Ochocinco 24-7.

Did anyone think the second training camp started that all eyes weren't going to be towards Tebow and Sanchez? ESPN covered Tebow 24/7 last year. Why wouldn't they do even more now that they have the Tebow vs. Sanchez drama?

They don't cover the Pats' camp because it is boring television.

Exactly. Let them get all the hype...and pressure. I prefer it when the Pats can play the "no respect" card.

ganggreen.com thinks the Jets are flying under the radar.

Woody has PSL's and season tickets to sell. It's not arbitrary these guys keep running their mouthes.

At this point in the season (early TC), I think most stations are focusing on how teams improved themselves (in theory) in the offseason. It's harder to sell that angle with the two most successful teams from the year before.

Just for fun, i just clicked ESPN only to see "Sal" talking about their new package called "Throw to Cro"....he called it inside stuff as he lines up on the outside after moving Santonio to the slot.

Big F'in deal - i am sure we'll be fooled.

Better to see Dbacks playing WR than a real WR (jets really need wr's).

Nothing, there are showing content that they believe gives them the most viewers. Who cares, when the cover the pats it is all about Gronk and Brady like they were the only two players on the team. Which pretty much is the focus of the day to day coverage of 32 teams, the more casual fans just want to hear about the stars on the opposing teams.

Somebody in Denver does not care than Bolden is a surprise performer.

Espn is about league news, not individual teams. Tebow is the biggest name in the NFL

Manning should be a bigger name. Unlike Tebow, he's actually done something in the NFL. Don't even start me on other more worthy players who are half decent footballers.

When Tebow airs I switch the channels. Not that big a deal.
