Oh Snap! Joe Flacco Called Out ESPN

[scrock]

Oh crap, on ESPN's show NFL32 they have Joe Flacco on the phone talking about last nights game, and they asked Joe what he did to celebrate last night. Joe said well last night we got in late and I hit the bed, turned on the tv and you guys at ESPN dont show our highlights !!! haha, the way he called them out was funny man, Mort and the guys apologized and he joked they have a Ravens bias or whatever...a non Ravens bias

Oh and tonight he said he's going out with some friends....but cool interview they did, if they put it up on ESPN check it out

[tonyg6996]

I'm glad he did, they almost refused to show it for some reason. I got back at around 12 last night and I don't think they showed the highlights until around 1, but I saw the Packers, Jets, and Patriots highlights multiple times.

[scrock]

i couldnt believe my ears, i thought i was going crazy or something, i started to clap for our QB lol

[Greatness]

I'm glad he called out the [b]E[/b]xtremely[b]S[/b]h--[b]P[/b]rograming[b]N[/b]etwork

That's my guy!

lulz!

If the roles were switched, we would be hearing about how great Ben Rothlisberger is all day. Flacco gets a 25 second segment then they move onto Eli Manning. It's lame, but we all know what went down last night and us fans are darn proud of our team.

Oh man, if the Steelers had won that game, it would've been 'The Big Ben Show, on ESPN!,'. Glad Joe had the stones to call 'em out on it.

u know it and they would be talking about how the Ravens cant win with Flacco, cant get over 'the hump'

[theFRANCHISE]

Eli Manning says before the season that he believes he's an elite QB. Manning gets a bunch of TV time for seemingly fulfilling that prophecy this weekend.

Joe Flacco says before the season that he believes he's an elite QB. Flacco gets about 30 minutes of coverage following the game and barely any mention after that.

[Ravensstrike4424]

im telling you guys,the media doesnt like to show the ravens highlights

[rlh445]

Maybe Joe should change his last name to, 'Manning' or 'Roethlisberger'?

[redrum52]

Side note, I think the Joe Cool name is iight, but BAZOOKA JOE is more John Blaze.

[scrock]

On ESPN's monday night countdown or whatever, pre show, they are giving props, big praise to the Ravens and specifically Joe Flacco, Mike Dikta went so far as to apologize for not calling Joe a leader on the team...

Good stuff

Eli a Superbowl winner has been criticized just as much if not more than Joe!

he does get criticized too, but he did win the SB so he's gotten a pass for a few years..only recently did they start talking back up about his game, especially after last year

[Lovely sir]

Chris Berman just showed some love tho...

Probably cause almost all of them chose the Steelers to win.

or maybe they needed a Manning to talk about since the other one is on the sidelines? No jk, I agree with you the dude has a Super Bowl to back up all the talk plus he's statistically the best QB in the 4th quarter this season.

Mike Ditka also showed some love for the Ravens, he apologized to Joe, said all the leaders were on Defense, he said Joe is a leader and his comeback was the greatest he's ever seen

Our highlights got ample time on Monday's Sportscenter...I watched almost all day.

[Twistidfunk]

I got home around 2 AM and the highlites were on

Man, I tried watching that NFL 32 show once when I first noticed it on but they had Tedy Bruschi and some other ex-pat on. It was unwatchable. Just awful. I felt bad for Mort having to sit with them. He looked uncomfortable. The show is a decent idea but Tedy Bruschi? I never want to see him on my tv.

Nice to hear they had Flacco on though.

Its not a bad show depending on 1) which team made the big headlines that week and 2) who they have on with Mort. I watched the one yesterday we are talking about, they had former OL Jon Ritchie and Eric Mangini on with him, they both are pretty objective every time I've seen them, Schlereth is good too when he is on there.

That said, I loved Joe saying that, thought it was hilarious, Mort was like "well you know we have a Raven bias" jokingly. Good stuff. Also thought it was amusing Adam Schefter asked Joe about Harbs' chin cut, if he was really an insider he would have heard John's post game presser that I watched ON ESPN immediately after the game, haha.

[H8R]

It was laughable, I watched sport center and NFL network..It would show up on the sidebar and then VANISH. Though, maybe that was for ratings.. To keep people tuned in.. Who knows?

ESPN was too busy rewriting all of their result sidebars and articles to say Ravens instead of Steelers?
