rajncajn Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Now we, once again, get Vick 24/7. At one point tonight I yelled at the TV to shut the hell up about Vick & talk about the game at least a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMD Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I liked Petrino after the game saying it was "interesting" that they would announce Vick's sentencing on the only National game played by the Falcons this year, at home no less.

xtra Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 It was refreshing,but they stiil had to drop in comaprison of the Saints scoring so fast to the Pats.Im wondering if its possible to go 1 whole game without mentioning them. It would be nice to listen to announcers actually announcing a game instead of man crushing newsmen who beat 1 thing to death for 3 hours every week.Save it for sportscenter.

Look at the rest of the media. They always pound one or two things to death while ignoring real news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At one point tonight I yelled at the TV to shut the hell up about Vick & talk about the game at least a little. Wow look at that, for them to stop talking about what could be the best team ever they have to talk about Vick. He's not even playing football and he's stealing air time.

'canes2004 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I can no longer watch MNF with the volume up. It makes it much more easier to watch believe me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big John Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I thought the Falcons played a National game on Thanksgiving? Technally yes, but how many were able to see it on NFL Network? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajncajn Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 (edited) i said something similar to my wife during the game "funny how this broke the same day the falcons are playing on MNF" It is strange, but really I don't see what relevance it has on the game. I don't see any ulterior motive for announcing it that day specifically. It seems to be just an odd coincidence to me.

He's not even playing football and he's stealing air time. It must give you great comfort knowing that other people are just as idiotic regarding Vick.

I don't see any ulterior motive for announcing it that day specifically. It seems to be just an odd coincidence to me. Don't even think it was that odd - I believe I heard this could happen (sentence announced on the day of their one MNF game) way back at the beginning. Seems to ring a bell... And honestly, it's the Falcons - they were starting Chris Redman - what else were they going to talk about. I'll assume the shelf life was yesterday and today and by the wkend it won't be a story again till he comes out of jail... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe ESPN had a hand in it since they knew it was going to be a crappy game to begin with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
