re: If ESPN doesn't have a vendetta against the Saints then......

If you mean this as in they are a 24hr network more concerned with ratings than actual reporting, and they have an agenda they push and if there is nothing to talk about they blow up a story that isnt a big deal and drag it out for weeks at a time to boost their ratings because they paint it in a controversial light while ignoring the actual facts and evidenced and constantly pushing one side of the story and completely ignoring the other. Then i agree, they are like FOX and CNN

Pretty much. I know they are towing Goodell and the NFL's line but that's who they have a multi-billion dollar contract with. I've tried to stay away from ESPN as much as possible because of the obvious bias but the reporting is coming around a little bit compared to the beginning.

And I'm not sure if Goodell has a vendetta against the Saints or just the fact that he is an egomaniac and would do this to a lot of other teams if he had the chance. He has been changing the game for years. Some of the fines in the past few years have been for questionable (around shoulder pad area or accidental) hits yet he still fines them.

I still watch NFL network during the day when I'm doing my morning routine. Every time they have a guest on, they always ask them something along the lines of "When you hear talk of bounties, what do you think?"

It was priceless when Michael Irvin's answer turned into something about Seau and the host completely ignored it and shifted back to asking Sapp about bounties.

ES "He Got JACKED UP!" PN

right

Sorry dude, wasn't meant for you personally or your post. Yours was the last post, so I just clicked reply. I'll make sure to avoid that in the future.

I just meant to everyone else, that it's as if some posters trying to impress someone by hourly stating they would never watch ESPN or go to their website.

If some idiotic Merry Sunshine assh*le doesn't think ESPN is grinding some sort of axe against the Saints, please explain the wiretap non-story. I hope Loomis owns there biased arse.

If you didn't hear the clip of Colin Cowshit saying the culture of the Saints is corrupt because the culture of the New Orleans is corrupt and all the people here are corrupt, you missed one of the bright moments in sports journalism.

I hope someone beats the shite out of the turd if he shows up for the Superbowl, which I guarantee will be our last as long as Godell in commish.

The hypocrisy of Goodell preaching player safety and an 18 game season is laughable. Where is the outrage?

Bringing down the Saints is all ESPN thinks about, brother. They can't stand to see Saints fans smiling and laughing and enjoying life, and they're thinking about you right now and how they can try to make your life less happy.

You can make all the snarky smart arse comments you want, but if you don't understand that ESPN is piling on because they're an easy target since everybody hates them and they've already lost in the court of public opinion, then you're the one with a problem. They're giving the masses what they want: another reason to get all pissed off about the Saints.
