    Over/under on how it takes ESPN to actually cover the Bills uni story

    I'm saying it won't be until the next new Sportscenter and will be a total of 1 minute of coverage... 11pm tonight is my guess... Oh wait, it won't be a top story so let me change that... 11:34.

      Why would they cover it at all? Who cares besides Bills fans?

        I don't know. You claim to be the leader in sports news, to me that means you are first to break any sports story... Crazy?

            Apparently yes. According to Len DeLuca:
            "It is long proven in NBA and NFL and MLB that spreading the wealth to 30 or 32 teams is a prescription for deflating ratings."

                Didn't catch it at 11 last night, I'm watching the re-run this morning (I think). Were at the :15 minute mark and no mention yet. I said :34... let's see.

                    So you guys think that ESPN should cover every single jersey change across all sports?

                    Lebron changes his number last year, & they spent a minute on it because a number is a number, it's not news and that was the King!

                      Lastly, ESPN is a private company & they have the Freedom to dowhatever they want with their company. Who are you to judge them or to tell them how to run it?

                      There are 3 ESPN channels so they can not comply with every sports fans wishes, including yours. They naturally celebrate Winners, Revalent Teams, etc... Bills are not relevant or a winner!

                      Right now they are covering Wibleton! Can anyone tell me how much tiime they spent on talking about the 29th best player? How about baseball, how often do they talk about the worst 3 teams???

                      If the Bills were Champs believe me ESPN would be talking about them!!!

                        Were you blind, deaf, or just living under a rock when LeBron changed his team/jersey/number? Remember the love for the Jags and Chargers the past few times they changed their jerseys? THE JAGS.

                        Believe me, I don't care that ESPN won't show our new unis, that's for us fans to care about and for other teams to fear but they do PLENTY of things about jersey changes, they at least mention them.

                          The NBA is a sport watched by few people anymore. That league is in trouble.

                            What they don't do: Adequately cover whats going on across sports

                            What they will do: Cover the stories that garner the most interest and therefore make them the most money

                            It's inadequate sports journalism but solid business.

                              It's really not news worthy. Except for local Buffalo. This may come as a surprise to some of you, but the rest of the country could care less about a dumpy little city like Buffalo.
