    ESPN signs 5 year airtime exclusivity agreement with Dallas Cowboys

    BRISTOL, CT - Jul. 29, 2006
    by Dean Werner, ESPN correspondent

    ESPN and the Dallas Cowboys have mutually announced a five-year agreement that in essence ensures that ESPN and it's networks will exclusively discuss the Dallas Cowboys in it's NFL coverage.

    Sources at ESPN state that all NFL discussions on it's NFL shows, such as "Sunday NFL Countdown", "NFL Live", "Edge NFL Matchup", as well as the nightly "Sportscenter" and the 24/7 coverage on "ESPNEWS", will center on the Cowboys, and mostly on head coach Bill Parcells and it's controversial wide receiver signed in the offseason, Terrell Owens.

    Cowboys owner and CEO Jerry Jones enthusiastically proclaimed that this was a "terrific agreement that we've been attempting to finalize for quite some time now. It's common knowledge that the Cowboys are 'America's Team', and now with ESPN's help, it will just solidify that throughout our great nation".

    While fans of other NFL teams are sure to complain about the new policy, ESPN senior management sources said privately on Friday that focusing on the soap opera-like stories that envelope the Cowboys' camp is what drive the ratings up, rather than focus on the actual football stories that occur in all other NFL teams' camps.

        Doesn't shock me, They already talk about the fricking cowboys every chance they get, The Fucking Browns could be in the super bowl, and the Dallas Cowboys could be 0-16, and ESPN would still talk about the cowboys.

          LOL, I just got a little ticked today...

          Every fucking day this week, all I see is either Parcells and Owens....

          And I'm not saying it's should be "all Steelers, all the time" either...

          But you're not seeing ANYBODY ELSE....

            I could give a fuck about the cowboys, put some fucking results on the field, and I'll care.

            The only guy who is legit when it comes to football over there, is Chris Berman, He could give a fuck what team a player is on, He gives them props when they make a good play. He even had fucking Tim Couch on his All-Sunday Night Football team. That takes some serious balls to say that.

              This is bizarre.

              They should at least try to appear impartial...

              Kind of fucked.

                      that would probably be better than "The World Series of Boring Sports"
                      At least its an auctual sport.

                      ESPN needs to quit showing that shit, and show auctual sports.

                            I respect the Marcus Allen way of scoring touchdowns and setting Hall of Fame numbers up---No Fanfare, it's what I do.

                            I can always handle a little celebrating after a good play but when
                            it progressed into the -Eighties -into a team Doing the Super Bowl Shuffle Video and then every play each player does his own 10 second version of it i really lost interest in the attention seeking some players Need..Like a Bunch of school girls fighting for camera time.


                            Back to your fake article --top notch sarcasm- on the current state of affairs in The -E- Chanel coverage of Football and Paris Hilton.

                            ESPN seems like The E chanel at times and i just wonder why a football player thinks he must garner any attention he can bad or good.

                            Is it a popularity contest or a contest of skill co-ordination and talent
                            in the execution of complicated group strategy....?

                              It never occured to me that you would be bs-ing.

                              Hilarious that I have that much trust in a complete stranger.
