Are the Jets as interesting as ESPN would like us to believe?

[ralaw]

I'm not sure why ESPN is attempting to do their own "Hard Knocks," but they've been at Jets camp all training camp. I understand Tebow is there, but he's far less interesting in training camp as he is during the season. Its not as if this is a great team or anything (8-8/9-7?). They report on camp fights as if it is something new and I'm starting to believe they're taking more joy and painting the team as being a circus. I've been listeing to ESPN radio and this team is all they are talking about. Are the Jets an interesting team to you?

Tebow and Sanchez generate a ton of hits, major keywords.

ESPN isn't about content, it's traffic, which makes money. Content is just added cost, so skimp that shit.

No, I don't really like watching their games (Sanchez is too frustrating), and their defense took a nosedive after Jim Leonhard got injured.

I don't follow the off-the-field stuff for any team, so I'm not really into ESPN's training camp reports. I only tangentially follow the Saints, and thats so I can respond to KNUBB's postings.

Of course not. Question answers itself.

But ESPN doesn't care what's interesting. Watching Mark Schlereth and Trey Wingo sit at a desk making declarative statements about teams based on games that happened 4 days earlier isn't interesting either.

its new york and eli still looks like corky...so this is the alternative

 

[ram29jackson]

the network is closer to that particular team...se how that works ?

they showed a Jets team fight that had nothing to do with the QBs at least..

No team except Cleveland has a possible QB battle, so this one needs to be milked.

The Jets don't have a QB battle. Sanchez has been named the starter. There is no competition.

Tennessee has Hasselbeck and Jake Locker - I'd be more interested in seeing that "QB battle." RGIII would blow away the Jets in terms of ratings.

Matt Flynn / Tavares Jackson?

Sanchez is boring to me. Tebow doesn't interest anybody on the practice field.

ESPN is retarded. I was wondering why the hell there was so much Jets coverage every time I flipped to ESPN. I didn't know they were doing a whole inside the training camp of the NY jets thing.

I agree, I don't get why the media is so fascinated with him....what does he do or say that is interesting?

My only guess is they're trying to tap into the mexican market. I don't get why, though, since most mexicans don't own televisions or cable.

 

[partners panic]

Well considering they have tickets avail in almost every section for every game I would say they arent interesting ppl that much.

:jonesy:

That, and MessAgains only like the Raiders anyways.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Sanchez is an average QB and Tebow is a bum.

 

[Mogriffjr]

Let's face it, the only reason the Jets are getting so much pub is because Tebow is there and he creates a massive PR flow.

ESPN camping out and everyone saying how the Jets are just a mess because we have training camp fights...last time I checked, every team has those, but since everyone from the media is here, it gets blown way out proportion...just like how there's a "QB competition" between Sanchez and Tebow....riiiight.

 

[JimLeavy59]

Come on guys you really think a major media empire would create a story where there isn't one?

 

[ram29jackson]

uhhh Arizona?

uhh who cares about Arizona ?

It's New York Damnit !

Agreed on every point.

I don't watch much ESPN anymore, but when I do I hate seeing the Jets covered. It's always a bunch of bullshit news that won't matter when the season starts.

You spelled Russell Wilson wrong.
