The Media just wants their drama, one way or the other, because nothing else will sell otherwise That's all ESPN is at this point. Drama. It's People magazine and TMZ for sports fans. Remember when Sportscenter actually showed game highlights? It's to the point that franchises get screwed over it, like all the NBA players funneling trade info and speculation to ESPN. I miss the Craig Kilborn days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Media just wants their drama, one way or the other, because nothing else will sell otherwise Some of the media will vilify the players just as often as they do the owners. And some of the media is truly unbiased. But some of the media has an agenda or has bought into the agendas of various players. And it shows with how certain things are covered by one outlet as opposed to another. .... but that's true about pretty much every issue under the sun.

kidson2004 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Well Patrick Mahomes won MVP plus OPOY and rightfully so. Saquon edged out Baker Mayfield for ROY, Aaron Donald wins DPOY. Next year’s gonna be good for Mahomes. Also, who ya got in the SuperBowl: Rams or Pats? Edited February 3, 2019 by kidson2004 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidnightDragon Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Want the Rams to win, expecting the Pats to win. However, still boycotting the damn thing. However, Mahomes winning league MVP does ease the burn a little. Edited February 3, 2019 by MidnightDragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsychicVibe Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Well, I don't know how great the game will be but the Party I'm going to will have lots of hottie-pa-totties there plus good food and drink.......and, the commercials and halftime show can be a lot of fun. I actually expect the Rams interior defensive front to give the Pats lots of problems.........this could be a lower scoring game than most expect. Vegas opened with the Rams as slight favorites but adjusted the line when money from one-time bettors poured in on NE. I'm going with the "smart" money and taking the RAMS! Good luck and have fun everyone! Best holiday of the year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidmarkgn Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 After enduring a Red Sox / Dodgers world series and now a Pats / Rams superbowl (don't plan on watching the game today, not because of a boycott or anything, there's just no appeal) I might take up watching basketball just to see what it's like to not have Boston and LA in a championship game/series, and that's coming from a SEATTLE sports fan.

Yeah...I wouldn't take up the NBA lmfao. My brother watches it and to me it's just a pathetic game to watch. You even think about moving within 2 feet of someone and it's a foul. Probably just go to any court near you and see a more entertaining game from teenagers. (good god I miss playing. ?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

closertim Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I get that some people don't like the Patriots but pretty much every superbowl they've played in it's been mildly entertaining. Anyway I'm hoping for a 6th ring today but I dunno. Wouldn't be surprised if the Rams pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, I don't hate the Pats as a Bengals fan (lol why would I, completely different spheres altogether) but I get why a lot of people do. But the Pats making the Superbowl pretty much guarantees it'll be a really good one. I think if I'm the Rams, I'm pretty happy about playing the Pats. Of course, Brady-Belichick have 5 wins but they also lost 3 of these. Of those 5 wins, 3 of them are now 14+ years ago and were all by a FG margin. The two recent wins were both games that they should've lost. The Pats winning by a TD in Overtime against Atlanta was their BIGGEST winning margin in a SB ever. NE are the dominant team of this millennium, no argument can be had about that. But they aren't dominant in Superbowl's despite winning 5 of them now, and not even close either. That said, if I were putting money on it I'd go with the Pats. Just in a close one. This has the makings of a really good game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidson2004 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 The Rams HAVE to come out firing in the 2nd half. The Defense is playing lights out; just need the offense to match their intensity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
