| Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage Ive had enough draft coverage from espn already and the draft hasn't even started yet... an hr and a half special mock draft, give me a break. Id rather see some coverage on the nba playoffs, nascar, baseball, ect. Sorry if that offends you die hard football fans, but I'm a sports fan, not just a football fan. |

| Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage I like watching NFLN for the draft, just because I don't like ESPN's analysts, although I don't like Mike Mayock either, he always sounds like he thinks his opinion is always the best lol. The good thing about having two versions of the draft though is that when one hits commercial I can just switch back to the other.

| Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage Whoa, when did this thread come back? Anyway I'm going to have NFL Network streaming this time around since I'll be home for the weekend and our Comcast package doesn't include NFL Network. Honestly though, ESPN's Todd McShay vs Mel Kiper dynamic is getting pretty annoying, they always seem to be ragging on each other in the same manner that Clayton and Salsbury use to. Plus NFL Network is probably going to have Casserly and Mayock covering the draft this week which is great because Charlie does a good job in my opinion of providing information, weather it be on the mindset of a GM/Scout or analysis of a particular player, even though he seems to constantly butcher names. I mean hell, the other day Casserly listed the Cowboys Wide Outs as TO, Crayton, and Joey Galloway. However other then slip ups like that, he's been pretty good. I also like Mayock better then Kiper, and how can you not like Rich Eisen? So lets look at the match ups: Color Commentator: (5 Points) Berman vs Eisen Advantage: Eisen Main Draft Scout: (5 Points) Kiper vs Mayock Advantage: Mayock Second Opinion Draft Analyst: (4 Points) McShay vs Some guy from Boston College Advantage: McShay In House GM's: (5 Points) Floyd Reese vs Charlie Casserly Advantage: Reese NFL Players: (3 Points) K. Johnson/E. Smith vs Faulk/Woodson Advantage: Faulk/Woodson In Studio NFL Players (2 Points) Schlereth/Jackson vs Sanders/Dukes/Dilfer Advantage: Schclereth/Jackson Former Coach: (3 Points) Ditka vs Mooch/Billick Advantage: Ditka Annoying Drama and Negativity Among Commentators: (-4 Points) Disadvantage: ESPN Insiders (7 Points) Palantonio/Mort vs Schefter Advantage: Schefter Unintentional Comedy: (1 Point) Advantage: Emmitt Graphics (Best Available/Past Picks/ Upcoming Picks) (4 Points) Advantage: ESPN In Studio Analyst: (2 Points) Hodge/Wingo/Jaws vs Charles/Burmeister/Baldinger Advantage: NFL Network (Jaws isn't enough to pick up the slack created by Hodge and Wingo) Sexy Anchors: (2 Points) Kobler/Nichols vs Random Blonde Chicks Advantage: ESPN Draft Weekend Coverage Advantage: NFL Network 20 Points to 19 Points for ESPN

Honestly though, ESPN's Todd McShay vs Mel Kiper dynamic is getting pretty annoying, they always seem to be ragging on each other in the same manner that Clayton and Salsbury use to. There's one pretty big difference between Clayton/Salisbury and Kiper/McShay Yeah I'll agree there, but they're definately moving in that direction. Just you wait, one day McShay is going to go after Kipers hair and Kiper will ask McShay "how long till you graduate from high school" (age joke) Quote: Color Commentator: Berman vs Eisen Advantage: Eisen Give me neither Technically that wouldn't really matter, but these are the two guys you'll be seeing the most on draft day. Quote: Main Draft Scout: Kiper vs Mayock Advantage: Mayock Push Theres no push in Network vs ESPN, this is a fight to the death. Quote: Second Opinion Draft Analyst: McShay vs Some guy from Boston College Advantage: McShay What about 3rd, 4th, and 5th opinion? I might be bored but I'm not that bored. Quote: NFL Players: K. Johnson/E. Smith vs Faulk/Woodson Advantage: Faulk/Woodson Love Keyshawn, but Emmitt...sigh Lololollolllolololololoo Emmitt Quote: Former Coach: Ditka vs Mooch/Billick Advantage: Ditka Word Coming up next Ditka vs the Tornado Quote: Insiders Palantonio/Mort vs Schefter Advantage: Schefter Did you forget Clayton? Yes I did, but Clayton still isn't enough to swing the vote towards ESPN. Quote: Unintentional Comedy: Advantage: Emmitt[?QUOTE] Intentional Comedy: SmootSmack! Graphics (Best Available/Past Picks/ Upcoming Picks) Advantage: ESPN Can be a bit busy at times I didn't write that part in the middle. Don't make me use my 6 reputation point power. Quote: In Studio Analyst: Hodge/Wingo/Jaws vs Charles/Burmeister/Baldinger Advantage: NFL Network (Jaws isn't enough to pick up the slack created by Hodge and Wingo) Trey is really cool though He's been annoying to me lately Quote: Sexy Anchors: Kobler/Nichols vs Random Blonde Chicks Advantage: ESPN Kolber is really funny. I went to junior high with Nichols, had a bit of a crush on her. But Alex Flanagan is not bad. Not bad at all THATS HER NAME! Yeah, I guess but ESPN still wins. Quote: Draft Weekend Coverage Advantage: NFL Network Negative rep points coming your way Fine I'll just go to ES. At least they have new threads almost.....daily....no minutely.
