2 plus hrs of Gameday Morning, no Ravens...

**HKusp** · 12-24-2011, 10:25 AM

Shocker I know, but all they have been talking about is the Jets/Giants and the NFC East. They have barely mentioned anything else. The Mediocre NFC east and a game involving the NFC East. There ARE other teams playing today. I know it may be compelling tv because every team in the NFC East is mathematically alive but damn... Other people watch too.

You can flip to espn and get all tebow all the time

**BleedPurple92** · 12-24-2011, 10:32 AM

Its all about the Benjamin...

NY vs NY epic large market match-up..

Cleveland vs Baltimore... Medium market vs small market.

No need to take it personal, they are supposed to cater to their largest audience, its a business. no real obligation to give each team equal coverage.

Who cares? What have the Ravens done to deserve airtime except talk about being disrespected by the media, then laying a huge egg on National TV?

This team is so up and down. Infuriating.

**NJRaven** · 12-24-2011, 10:34 AM

I am a Yankees fan so I find it refreshing for my football team to be the polar opposite in regards to coverage.

**Irish Raven** · 12-24-2011, 10:35 AM

If I were an executive I'd be concentrating on Jets/Giants too
Anyone would.
Biggest media market

What does it matter anyway? Ravens got a primetime game in SD, Flacco spoke out about being ignored and disrespected and look at the final score.
Better to be ignored and an underdog.

Just want for NFL Gameday Final and they cover every single game

I've been watching this and they've not said that much about Tebow, until the last ten minutes and talked Ravens after the first ten minutes.

Yeah lol. a certain guy named Tim Tebow....

The largest name in sports at the moment. I cant remember ESPN cover a guy as much as they've covered Tebow, its incredible....

I'm not gonna lie, whenever i'm changing channels and i hear them talking about tebow i usually stay, lol i feel partly responsible.

**HKusp** · 12-24-2011, 10:42 AM

I understand the big market thing. I understand the Ravens aren't the greatest story. But it is NFL Gameday Morning. Not New York game day. Or biggest story in the NFL game day. They could talk about EVERYTHING that is going on just a little bit. Then FEATURE the more "important" mega market stuff.

**Raven 555** · 12-24-2011, 10:45 AM

A Yankee fan and Raven fan...LOL How the hell did that happen?

I bet you their ratings are off the chain today, because of all the New York fans that stayed tuned in to listen to them talk about their team.

Which is the Point.... Capitalism at its best. Cant knock them for trying to maximize their profits.

Sexy Rexy was close.

**goldenelite28** · 12-24-2011, 10:55 AM

They had a good segment of ESPN about the Ravens a while ago.

**Bazooka Joe** · 12-24-2011, 10:56 AM

Baltimore is not a well liked city, nationally speaking. Who cares?

The Ravens are in the playoffs once again. I will say that to take that step into elite, we must take advantage of opportunities given.

Ya'll are being ridiculous. They're not talking about the Ravens because they're playing the friggin Browns and the playoff ramifications, although existent, are marginal. The Giants and the Jets are both still in the hunt.

They have also not mentioned New England or 8 or so other games.

I dunno, being 10-4 and holding onto the #2 seed in the AFC?

I don't care if they don't like Baltimore. I don't think that looking for a little bit of the story of every game being played today is too much to ask.

**Raveninwoodlawn** · 12-24-2011, 11:34 AM

What's really to talk about...we are playing one of the worst teams in the NFL and everybody expects us to walk over them...Doesn't have much relevance to most people.

I guess they could talk about how we didn't show up and got our asses kicked last week?
