I know some on here take the side that the Saints are being slighted/ignored by the national media; others, along with those same national media guys (Peter King, ESPN.com's Pat Yasinskas, etc.), say it's our imagination.
I was just watching a replay of NFLN's Total Access and before a commerical break, they said a report from Saints camp was next. When the show returned from commercial, there was a report on...COLTS camp, complete with interviews of the head coach and Peyton Manning. The Saints report came on the heels of the Colts report, complete with an interview of Reggie Bush. The order of the reports was not the big problem, however. All the sports networks don't IMMEDIATELY have a report they say is next when they return from commercial. It was the length of the reports that I noticed. I decided to use my DVR, which automatically records the last 90 minutes of a program, and time the two reports.
The score? Colts 2:24, Saints 0:55. These timings included introductory reports from the girl at the "desk" prior to the on site reports, the first desk report about no new contracts for the Colts holdouts and the second about Shockey's health.
Take it for what you will. But it's interesting that the teaser going to commercial was about a report from the camp of the Super Bowl winners, but the real time was spent reporting on the losers.
Yes, it's offseason, and I'm stirring the pot.
