I finally have to vent about the media

So let me start by saying I think the bounty thing has been blown way out of proportion and it isn't that big of a deal. It isn't because I am a Saints fan, I would feel this way if all this was about any other team. Its football. But what is absolutely driving me crazy is how the media interviews former players, such as Hannah Storm who just interviewd Hugh Douglass, and the former players repeatedly say this isn't a big deal, that players go out and do their job and most of this is just a coach trying to fire up his team before a game, yet the reporters won't accept their answers and keep asking the same question in 20 different ways, making it very obvious in their tone and inflection that they think it should be a big deal. If someone answers your question, accept their answer and move on...

Okay I feel better now

She just did the exact same thing with Darren Woodson.

I dont know how many ways the guy could say he's heard that same speech a million times...

This made me chuckle.

To the OP I feel the same way.

thats probably because they have the producers telling them to push the envelope. Don't get me wrong, I think its crap too. Sportscenter used to be my favorite show, highlight reels with much better commentary. Its all gone to shite the last few years though. I remember Todd McShay was doing an interview done here during Senior Bowl week and one of the anchors asked him a question about Tim Tebow. McShay kinda laughed and said I'm not sure how this game relates to Tim Tebow other than the fact that he once played in it or something smart arse like that. I gotta say, McShay making me laugh was a first.

The guys on NFL Radio this morning knew it was going to get blown out of proportion by mainstream media that has never been around football.

After watching the interview with woodson its obvious they are out for blood, these pussies would probably try and shut the NFL down if they heard what went on without the cameras on, you always wanna take out the opposing teams best player .....legally of course which I think what the saints were doing just as any other team
