What do you HATE the most about The NFL Network???

CBSGameFace : 4/6/2015 10:55 pm
A) The obvious anti-NY bias?

B) The lame ass contrarian debates about blah, blah, blah?

C) The incessant Cowboy lovefest?

D) Jordan Babineaux's butchering of the English language?

E) Lavar Arrington's wardrobe?

F) The 'Who is the greatest of all time' debates?

G) Anything that Solomon Wilcots says?

H) Jamie 'Daisy' Dukes?


Please. Have at it. Feel free to add anything I might have missed.

I truly have grown to hate him as a person and a reporter
I hate the NFL Network's ESPN vibe.

They are filled with ex-jocks who don't know a thing about talking to the viewers.

They deliver news in little bitty soundbites.

Their programing is pathetic. Top 10 List is not programming, it is mindless pablum that reduces the sport to America's Funniest Videos level of entertainment. Top 10 Lists are a step down in programming from the programming that NFL Films made. NFL Films turned football into an action-packed drama with tension and music. Each football game was turned into an epic.

I hate how the pencil pushers that the NFL hired to run their fledgling network gutted NFL Films. The people who elevated football above the other sports could only watch as these new geek producers slashed budgets, laid-off workers, and lied to Steve Sabol about their intentions with NFL Films.

The hate that I learned the geek pencil-pusher executives that the NFL hired to run its programming, where the ones who made ESPN what it became.

I hate how some marketing "guru" came up with a bold, edgy, new strategy for NFLN's draft day coverage and decided to give football fans less Mike Mayock, and more everyone else for the casual viewer. Their 2013 coverage was pathetic the way they strutted out an 8-man panel to discuss each draft pick in only 10 minutes, half of which is dedicated to commercials. I wish some of you could have seen when it was just Mayock and Rich Eisen, meaning Mayock did all the talking about the player's prospects. That guy was informed on the players and he told us what we wanted to know. Some genius decided less information and more personality was the way to go.

I hate that I wanted NFL Network once.

are absolutely clueless about all 32 teams. The analysts are even worse. They just spew the same shit that they hear from other reporters,and act like they actually know what they're talking about. I would say that the(average) fan knows more about football then any of those douchebags.
I vote for the Cowboy bias

Its so sickening listening to Irvin gush.
Lack of serious football talk.

I'm not a MLB guy by any stretch of the imagination, but their content is filled with much more depth & discussion on the game & strategy behind it.

What BigBlueOne said. Spot on. NFL Network is nothing but a dumpster fire. I can't believe that I wanted a Network devoted to the NFL and they came up with this. The lack of analytics on the programs are definitely the most obscene viewing material out of the sport networks. NHL and MLB are so in depth and they provide quality, at least more than the NFL Network does. Look at the Super Bowl, they had Warren Sapp bobbing for apples. Who the hell wants to see that? The worst, worst, WORST product to come from the NFL Network is DANCING WITH THE STARTERS. Absolutely unnecessary.


Lavar Harrington is garbage but the worst is that Conway guy married to Ali's daughter. Get that fucking clown off TV.

is that really necessary?





I'm sure those extra three hours a day was definitely necessary for their lineup.



I Never said I was a math genius or that I can count ... but, let me tell you something (wise-ass) ; ). If you worked for me - you would be paid handsomely.
