Re: ESPN vs NFL Network Draft Coverage

Quote:
Hosts: Chris Berman, ESPN vs. Rich Eisen, NFL Network
Rich Eisen, hands down! I've always appreciated self-deprecating humor over self-indulgent arrogance. Advantage: NFL-N

Quote:
Other Football Experts: Tom Jackson and Steve Young, ESPN vs. Marshall Faulk and Rod Woodson and Deion Sanders, NFL Network
Come on, it's Marshall! Advantage: NFL-N

Quote:
Insiders: John Clayton, ESPN vs. Adam Schefter, NFL Network
Hmm, this is a toughy as I'm a fan of both. I'll give it to Schefter as he appears to be more "in the trenches". Maybe he is, maybe he isn't, but at least the appearance is there. Advantage: NFL-N

Quote:
Draft Gurus: Todd McShay and Mel Kiper, ESPN vs. Mike Mayock and Charles Davis, NFL Network
Mayock & Davis in a shutout! McShay & Kiper are empty suits and indicative of a network that celebrated (until recently) Salisbury & continue to bow to their golden calf, Chris Berman. Advantage: NFL-N

Quote:
Breaking Down the Tape: Meril Hodge and Ron Jaworski, ESPN vs. Brian Baldinger and Soloman Wilcots, NFL Network
Nothing against Baldinger & Wilcots, I like 'em. However, this is where ESPN gets it right.........hard to beat Hoge and Jaws on the film. Advantage: ESPN

Quote:
Best On screen interface: Both networks are going to feature an interface that will be displayed during the entire draft.
PUSH. They both are busier than a prostitute at a Viagra factory, so I'll call it a tie.






Final Score: NFL-N - 4 ; ESPN - 1
