    Bills-Packers Scrimmage Highlights on Sportscenter

    They showed two plays.

    1) Favre completing an 8 yard pass to Javon Walker.

    2) Favre completing a short TD pass to TE Ben Steele

    They also mentioned that Favre threw 3 TD's in four plays, but no mention that all of those plays were from 5 yards and in. That was it !! More typical media hype for Golden Boy Brett Favre. Also, no mention of how the Bills kicked the Packers' ass from start to finish.

    I know it's only a scrimmage and the season is a month away, but that was just wrong. Some people will probably tell me to calm down. I will eventually. That's OK, though. Everyone will just keep ignoring the Bills and they will just keep laying in the weeds and then ambush their opponents this year. They will EARN their respect !!

      ESPN has always been Bills haters. And Brett Favre lovers. They give no respect, except for when Berman is on. Hell, even when the Bills had that big winning streak at the end of the season...you hardly ever saw replays on Sports Center. It's a load of **** and it's another reason why ESPN sucks.

        Yeah, from their coverage, it doesn't even look like the Bills showed up, let alone kicked the crap out of Favre and company.
        Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          Good God almighty, please quit whining about not getting respect. When we win on a regular basis in the regular season then we will get respect.

            I'm just a proponent of fair and objective reporting, so ESPN's coverage irritates me.

              ESPN goes where the ratings are. Farve brings in there ratings and unfortunately many could care less about Buffalo. Its the same for them in every sport. If the Sabres beat the Penquins 6-2 the only clips they would show is the Crosby and Lemieux scoring.

                  when the Bills become a perennial playoff team again, they'll get coverage, until then, teams like the packers deserve more t.v. coverage-
                  My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

                    But the point is....it was the scrimmage with the Bills against the Packers....and I felt that the Bills kicked their ass, other than the few red zone/goal line plays. and I don't care what you say...that one touchdown was bobbled and was not a ****ing touchdown. The Packers shouldn't have had 4 TDs...just 3.

                      Well as much as us fin fans understand your anger at this I would have to say this is just more bad reporting from ESPN. Whe showing highlights they always seem to go about like a homer!! They jump on one team and thats all they show. I don't like watching Primetime, one because of Berman...I'm sure you know why, and two becuase they seem to always show one team more then the other, it seems to be a theme with them. It's always like a highlight reel of just one of the two teams playing. I don't get it who wants to watch just one side of a game???

                      Football is football it's fun to watch the highlights and see good plays. But we only seem to get the highlights of just one team, like the other team did absolutely nothing the whole game. It stinks and I avoid ESPN highlights if there are other NFL shows to watch. A lot of bad reporting from them IMO.

                        ESPN has made me sick of TO and the Eagles.

                        TO could break a nail and it'd be on the headlines of every ESPN show.

                          Your also a Bills fan and highly bias. Im sure a packers fan would see things differently. It was a touchdown I dont care what you say the ball never hit the ground. The only reason it got any play on SC was because Lambeau sold out, so why exactly did the Bills deserve any of that coverage? Aside from all that it was just a bloody scrimmage, yea I would of liked to see some Bills highlights but Im not gonna get all bent out of shape on it, especially for a show like SC which has to cover about 30 events and 2 stories in 1 hour.

                            Considering it was only a scrimmage- putting in the prospective of what the event actually was- I'm suprised they had any coverage at all.

                            The only newsworthy item at all about it is that 62,000 showed up for a scrimmage.

                            I'm sure the only reson it got airtime is because there was decent footage (Due to being on NFL Network)
