I understand that the Giants aren't a TV network and don't necessarily put in too much effort into this show but come on... We are two weeks removed from the draft and in the middle of the rookie camp and I just watched an entire show about the 2007 DBs??? Give us something about what's going on over the last few weeks! And yes, I know there is more than enough info available on line but this is the Giants own production so they should be able to do something (anything)better than this retread they threw out tonight. Just my two cents.
I don't know how big or skilled the Giants' video production unit is, but I doubt they have the resources to shoot, write and edit a long show about rookie minicamp in two days. As you say, they're not a TV network. I expect that the pieces we're seeing online are about their limit.
But I bet you'll see a long-is, well-produced show about the rookies and the minicamps in a week or two.

Yeah, I get all that, my ex wife and I lived in LA and she is still in video production. Even if they put a compilation of the videos the have on Giants.com together for the first ten minutes of the show (and that can't be too hard, we've been seeing the rookies arriving at the facility, pieces fro their press conferences, etc for the last two weeks) I would be more satisfied. A program tonight with 30 minutes about the 2007 DBs (which we've seen 20 times now) is a pretty weak effort. A HS A?V club could get SOMETHING together. Just a bad look for an NFL team that has plenty of money to throw at something a little better than that. Obviously not a big deal, just a waste of time and DVR space I guess LOL
Couldn't agree more. And it's not like they don't have the cash to do it better. Not to mention, if you do these shows better, more people will watch, better ratings, better advertising dollars. I don't get it.
I watch it religiously and I agree it’s awful but hey it’s all we got
On another note, more Emma Kaptein, please
I've been living in the DC market for 14 years now and it's the same here with the Redskins coverage. It's everywhere on the TV and radio stations.
This past football season, I spent living near Dallas for work. Same thing, Cowboys coverage is wall to wall. In fact it starts once you step foot in the Dallas airport. Cowboys theme everywhere.
Yet the Giants local media coverage is almost laughable compared to the rest of the division. I blame that on ownership.
I will say there was not a lot of in-depth reporting on this past weekend's rookie camp but then again it's rookie camp and most to the footage is limited.
