No Coverage?

**dscola31** · 01-11-2012, 02:31 PM

To me, it's not even about them respectng us or not. I'm just saying that there is ABSOLUTELY NO COVERAGE of the game at all. My tv channel stays on NFLN and there is not one blurb, comment, video, nothing.

I don't expect this game to be top story, I just want to hear about my team's game coming up. I don't have satelite radio and I don't listen to local radio unless I'm in my car. I can understand ESPN but not the NFL network.

My point is that, in the minds of the national media, it's not as compelling as the other games. Judging by the fanbases and storylines, do you blame them?

LOL... are you naive? Just see spoon's reply #60 ... Bc

Some people apparently can't grasp this concept.

You can DVR a game and watch Ravens "game footage" ad nauseam, unless you're the only guy in America without a DVR.

Sitting here watching the hour long NFL Live...

13 minutes on the Jets
Commercial
2 minutes on Jags new Coach Mularkey
2 minutes on what team can make a run in 2012
Commercial
2 minutes Peyton manning future/Colts.
Commercial

We are halfway through now.

4 minutes Tebow analysis
4 minutes Packers tragedy
4 minutes Giants players interviews today/game analysis.
Commercial
4 minutes Saints/49ers preview
Commercial
4 minutes Anniversary of "The Drive" by Elway

And we are done folks.

Any questions?

I was going to reply but instead will just say "God Bless you, lad.

Big media market I get, but damn I'm sick of the jets and their mediocre QB Sanchez coverage overshadowing teams/players that earned recognition. Save that crap for after the SB; it's not a story to 8 teams fanbase.

I have far too much respect for the fairer sex to assume they would post such transparently combative drivel - despite some Trollettes who are the exceptions which prove the Rule.

Of course, they'll get coverage now, in a negative light.

This is nothing new. I've been a Ravens fan since day 1, but haven't lived in Maryland since then so I've gotten used to only getting the slightest details about Ravens games. Thankfully now I can stream the games online at least. So anyway, even if the Ravens were going to the Superbowl, the main focus would be on the other team and all the other teams that barely made it in. That's just how it is.

I remember watching Sportscenter this past Sunday night after the games and the only thing I failed to see on the side-scroll about the next week's matchups was anything about Ravens/Texans. I get frustrated, but I remind myself that it's fine and to let the other teams get the spotlight. The Ravens have always seemed to be a team that can buy too much into their own hype, and it usually kills them. Let's go back to being the team that is given no respect, but aggressively takes it from the doubters.
