Blackula69 posted:Florio pisses me off so much because he's a bad reporter and a bad writer. Peter King has the tools to be great at both - his problem is self-indulgence, not talent. Florio is just sort of a not-very-bright guy who lucked into a prominent position. Terry Bradshaw Expressway indeed Florio is basically the Star Jones of the sports world.

I love how so many people think professional athletes need more positive reinforcement than a four year old. NFL QB's must be like fragile little butterflies. Maybe the Dolphins should even give Tannehill a mini-Lombardi inscribed with "QB Contest Winner" at the end of camp.

Instead, it quickly morphed into another unwatchable debate program between ex-jocks. Sad. I blame QBR.

Febreeze posted:Part of me hopes that not only does it snow, but it's a warm weather team vs a cold weather team and the warm weather team wins. That, or the cold weather team blows them out, causing mass controversy forever. But preferably the first, so that we get more cold weather superbowls. I hope it snows two feet and a giant sheet of frozen snow lets loose from the stadium, landing in the press box and killing all within. Draw that.

It's just dumb to pretend that only the Patriots and Broncos will end up in the Superbowl because they're early favorites. Both those team's quarterbacks have missed entire seasons because of injuries. Father time is due to catch up with either of them. Divisions turn over every year. He throws bones at Joe Flacco and the Ravens are the ones who won the last AFC Superbowl.

Jethro posted:I used to really appreciate TMQ. His schtick has been wearing a little thin for a few years now, but back in the days of Page 2, he and Simmons really were something interesting. I'm not sure if that's a more stark indictment of the state of football commentary at the time or me from 10+ years ago. He kinda, sorta was a precursor to what Bill Barnwell does in some of his columns, except without all the methodology and analysis. Barnwell will cite specific probabilities to critique poor coaching choices. Easterbrook would call some coach a lunkhead for punting on 4th down at the 45, and then turn around and rail against someone going for it in the same scenario the next week because it didn't work. All of Easterbrook's criticisms were outcome oriented, which is dumb.

Maybe if they tried being good at their jobs and put some effort into it- opposed to acting like jackyls around a carcass- he'd be more willing to talk to them. Yes asking him question about the longest run of his career is pretty lazy.

Mike Florio.quote:Throughout much of the #DeflateGate controversy, Patriots fans have pointed to connections between the Jets and the league office to explain both the leak of false PSI information to ESPN and the fire-aim-ready approach to an “independent” investigation aimed not at getting to the truth but at getting to a conclusion that the Patriots cheated.
