Which network are you watching the draft on tomorrow?
 
NFL Network?
or
ESPN?

Looks like Wendi Nix is covering the Chiefs for ESPN :)

kstater 04-25-2008 12:40 PM

I only get one choice. But will likely have Berman on mute.

Basileus777 04-25-2008 12:40 PM

ESPN by default. I'd rather watch it on the NFL Network, but my school doesn't have the channel anymore. Damn Time Warner.

Sure-Oz 04-25-2008 12:40 PM

Probably ESPN cause i like to make fun of their talking heads

Skip Towne 04-25-2008 12:42 PM

What time does it start?

Deberg_1990 04-25-2008 12:43 PM

Ill flip between both. I really dig NFL Networks no nonsense approach.

ESPN is all style no substance at times.

bogey 04-25-2008 12:44 PM

Which network is Mel Kiper NOT on?

alpha_omega 04-25-2008 12:48 PM

No other choice....ESPN.

Frazod 04-25-2008 12:48 PM

NFL Network. Screw ESPN.

time warner doesnt let us have it (NFLN) :cuss: however.. i CAN get it for free on my sprint Palm Centro grob

Frosty 04-25-2008 01:21 PM

Here is how I expect the ESPN coverage to be during the #5 pick:

Commish: "Kansas City is now on the clock..."

ESPN: commercial.........

Kiper, back from break: "The Chiefs should seriously look at Brandon Albert here, even though it may be too early" (a minute or so of tape on Albert)

Berman: (snarky comment about how terrible the Chiefs' line was last year)

Tom Jackson: (uproarious laughter)

Berman: "Anyway, we are getting closer to the Patriots' pick. Who will they be looking at?"

ESPN crew: (5 minutes of Spygate and BB talk)

ESPN: commercials......................................................................................... ..................

Kiper, back from break: "The Jets should be looking at Darren McFadden here......"

Me: "Crap!" (looks at ticker to see who Chiefs picked)



This is why I am watching NFL Network coverage this year.

yeah especially like last year :cuss: f'ers suck. ill watch both then mostlikley...

Tribal Warfare 04-25-2008 01:30 PM

I'll watch both networks, to see their reactions when we don't pick "their" guy

Micjones 04-25-2008 01:31 PM

I will be in a hotel tomorrow... So I'm guessing ESPN.
Do hotels generally carry ESPN in their base cable packages?

ShortRoundChief 04-25-2008 01:32 PM

alas I can only have cable so am stuck with espn

ShortRoundChief 04-25-2008 01:32 PM

DaKCMan AP 04-25-2008 01:33 PM

I'll be spending my weekend in Gainesville at a friend's place and I'm pretty certain he only has ESPN, so ESPN it is.

StcChief 04-25-2008 01:49 PM

ESPN unfortunately.... their analysts just blow.

JBucc 04-25-2008 01:51 PM

I wish it was NFL network but ESPN is all I gots.

I'll be watching on the Ocho. Nothing else even comes close.

Frankie 04-25-2008 01:59 PM

I'm still watching it on ESPN. Force of habit, you know. But from the 2nd round on ESPN will go to commercial every f***ing time the Chiefs are about to pick anyway. So this year I have Dish Network and the NFL channel as my backup.

keg in kc 04-25-2008 02:01 PM

ESPN.

fuck Time Warner.

Mecca 04-25-2008 02:07 PM

I just watched Wendi Nix say look for the Chiefs to trade back so they can take an OT...

KCChiefsMan 04-25-2008 02:10 PM

I will probably watch it on espn, I already know I won't be able to get on Chiefsplanet, so I'll just be glued to the TV

Likewise

The Franchise 04-25-2008 02:19 PM

I'm recording it at home on NFLNetwork. I'll be at the girlfriends house and she only has ESPN.

Well... I'm usually 'busy' when I stay in hotels so I don't pay much attention to the roster of Cable channels.

Rooster 04-25-2008 02:22 PM

I will probably be bouncing back and forth from ESPN and NFLN...

Tomorrow is either going to be fantastic or dreadful. Nothing in between I'm afraid. :doh!:

Skip Towne 04-25-2008 03:05 PM

I'm watching whichever channel Mecca is watching. His analysis is the best.

Hootie 04-25-2008 03:08 PM

ESPNHD...if NFLN had HD in this area I might consider watching it on their network...but I'll take the HD over the non HD...

Spott 04-25-2008 04:17 PM

I think I'll go to the beach and maybe get a little fishing in then I'll just check the paper the next day to see who got taken where.

Sanka 04-25-2008 04:19 PM

NFLN, I don't think I could take Kiper for another year.

Fishpicker 04-25-2008 04:30 PM

NFLN, I dont have any interest in watching ESPN's coverage of the draft. ESPN commentators just go on & on about the teams that interest them and dont really pay attention to the rest. if ESPN even mentions who the chiefs pick, it will be a lucky coincidence.

We have a shit ton of picks and they love Herm Edwards so I expect the Chiefs to actually get some air time this weekend.

Al Bundy 04-25-2008 04:38 PM

I will be watching NFL Network but it will be on mute and I will be listening to NFL Radio on Sirius.

ZootedGranny 04-25-2008 04:48 PM

Going with NFL Network.

Last year Berman was announcing who the pick was before the Commish did. When it comes down to it, its not a huge deal, because it's the message that's important, not the messenger, but it got annoying.

This is why I am watching NFL Network coverage this year.

LOL, this is soooo true. Shit pisses me off.

suds79 04-25-2008 09:50 PM

This one's easy. Go ESPN

And I'll offer this up as a warning to not watch the NFL network's coverage.

Last year I watched the NFL network and with practically every pick Adam Schefter (sp?) would come on just before the pick with inside information and tell you who the team was picking.

STFU!!!

I know he’s trying to be on the ball but he took all the fun out of it.

So buyer beware.

Dude, it's the ****ing draft. Do you really need to be able to count all 9 of Berman's remaining hairs or what?...
