I don't know if any of you watched the FOX pregame show today but I have to complain about all the New Orleans coverage on the show. They spent probably an hour and 15 minutes of a 2 hour show covering the Katrina Story. I don't tune in to a sports pregame show for their opinions on the story, I don't really care about the Saints. I already got that I should give to the relief fund. This is the first week of the NFL, I tune in to get coverage and opinions about the NFL season and week 1. If I want to hear about the N.O. story I'll tune into a news channel.

Would you also complain if you didn't get the Fox pregame because they were airing the reading of the 9/11 victims? Just curious.

No, as long as it wasn't done during a supposed "NFL pregame show".

It would have probably been an improvment over the garbage I was tuned into today anyway.

I'm at the point where I am close to not watching anymore. I like to see some pregame analysis and some news on the games. ESPN's show has gotten annoying with Berman's personality and the incredibly horrible Irvin. Fox's show is pathetic and today was a sappy, forced, disengenuous piece of garbage.

.....Then you got college gameday with Nick Lachey. uggh
