I'd rather hear about the Redskins and Browns,than a 10 minute fluff piece touting the Jets or Patriots...

^^^ There you go again, assuming that what you think is what "everyone" must think.

I would much rather get some real football news about the Browns, Bengals, etc... than a 10 minute fluff piece with no real football value about a "more popular" team.

Well TV ratings say otherwise. If you would rather hear about a team that is 2-14 over a team that is 14-2 you are in the minority! That is a fact. And you can't blame ESPN for talking about the "good" team

I think what he was saying is he would rather the network give a somewhat equal amount of coverage to all of the league.It is no secret that the Bristol,Conn. based ESPN has an east coast bias,Or should I say a Northeast coast bias because I never see or hear about the Dolphins either.Even when my Sox won it all in '05,their coverage was more about why Boston lost to us than why we swept them in the ALDS.It was clear they didn't like that.
