Most of the Media are Absolute Idiots


Recommended Posts

You just realized this?  😃 😄

Cimini gets off on anti-Jets schadenfreude, has been for decades.

The number of jobs in "sports media"-- the talking heads and "journalists" paid by corporations to talk about sports -- and the salaries being paid out to said individuals in this country are absolutely ridiculous.

Only in America.

The games are the games. 

They're going to happen whether there's a pregame and postgame show or not, whether some idiots posing as "experts" present their paid opinions or not.

LOL

With maybe a few exceptions here or there, the big bad "New York media" is nothing more than a collection of low-IQ blowhards and spin doctors, sniveling sycophants and lickspittles.

Rodgers is a smart guy.

It surely didn't take long for him to realize this 😂 🤣

So Im listening to the Aaron Rodgers press conference and all those morons seem to be interested in is Egypt .

An unnecessary Self-inflicted wound. 

Take up your concern with the guy who caused the story in the first place, not the guys finally getting a chance to ask about it.

Sports media is still media, and Rodgers melodrama sells more papers and site hits than a deep dive into new groin stretching methodologies.

Aaron Rodgers spends most of his waking hours conceiving of ways to get the media to ask him about his trips to Egypt. 

Rodgers' press conference detours on personal matters are akin to when Belichick is asked a question about special teams or "the kicking game" in particular.

It's a tacit invitation for each to indulge in long-winded answers to divert from having to answer real questions.

BB once went like 15 minutes without pausing when asked to explain his take on how the long snapper job has evolved from a multi-tasker type deal in the 50s and 60s into a specialized position with scouting resources invested and a dedicated roster spot 🤣

you vastly over estimate the amount of $$ the Jets beat writers are making.

didn't the Jets guy talk about buying a $600k house?  it's not a shack, but it's not like he's rolling in the dough.

So Im listening to the Aaron Rodgers press conference and all those morons seem to be interested in is Egypt . Rather than actully doing their job and reporting on actual football. They are basically trying to stir sh*t up between the coach and the player. NOT ONE question on how his achillies feels. Like.... Hey Aaron do you still feel any effects from the injury ?? Do you move any differently and are you thinking about it when you burst off that foot ? Do you still feel as quick in the pocket as you did before the injury ? Do you think this will cause some issues on subtle movements in the pocket to avoid pass rushers ?  None of that !!!  just.... Hey Aaron why did you choose to wear that shirt you bought in ******* god damn egypt ???? Hey Aaron why do you think you got fined ? was it to show youre not being favored by the staff ??? This is the sh*t we get. Morons.

And this does not even scratch the surface of the legacy media putting their preferred spin on political matters.  No more information.  Only affirmation for their markets and fire starting to drum up clicks.

The presser with Saleh yesterday left me speechless. They asked a few questions, the Jets said okay a few more questions. There was one more question and that was it. Like, seriously? No questions related to what @KRL mentioned with the new positional stretching. No mention of Keith Carter and what the offensive line is doing differently.

Lazy is really what comes to mind.

Go easy on him.

The man was running late for his afternoon tee time.

Yeah I know but just Google what "Stephen A" makes.  It's absurd.

These guys / gals are all aspiring to get to that level.

Whatever Hughes is making he should be grateful for.  He used to be better but he's devolved into a thinly veiled mouthpiece for Joe Douglas and the organization.

Pick a random country in the world.  You don't have hordes of media getting paid to not only "cover" individual teams but talk about sports 24-7.

It's 100% darkness inside a sarcophagus. There's a joke in there somewhere but it's just not coming to me at the moment. 

Take a shot at it and make me laugh.

I’m old enough to remember Steve serby lol. 
 

it’s what they do. I’m frankly super disappointed that the jets media team doesn’t do a better job prepping the jets coaches employees and players for it. Saleh is brutal in front of a microphone.

I would have upvoted this post but I didn't want it to seem like click bait.

Not "wound" as in "we're meaningfully hurt by it in terms of on-field play", but a "self-inflicted wound" as in "he did it to himself" and has no one else to blame for it being a media line of (melodrama) questioning.

It's a pretty common phrase. :roll:  Did I REALLY have to spell this out for you?
