You are a ****ing idiot.

lakerboy · 01-17-10, 10:36 PM

Having the New York market with a team alone would be worshipped by the network execs.

3PtShooter · 01-17-10, 10:38 PM

never,,, East coast will go nuts,,,,ratings will be off the chart with either indy or ny

TheLock · 01-17-10, 10:40 PM

I'm sure Pavy has not forgotten about the metropolitan aspect of the ratings so....

what's your angle on this pavy

pavyracer · 01-17-10, 10:43 PM

People want to see Favre - Manning Superbowl. Mark my words. The zebras will make sure you see a Favre - Manning Superbowl.

in2thethickofit · 01-17-10, 10:43 PM

Yes, play the game and they will come!

WhatAboutMeBitch · 01-17-10, 10:44 PM

sure they will. everyone watches the super bowl, even non sports fans. plus jets are from a big market and many people are rooting for the Saints to win to "help" their recovery from the hurricane and many will love to just pull for a david vs goliath in this big game

Fair enough.

I already hammered the opener on IND. I see a 17 point victory or more.

warriorfan707 · 01-17-10, 10:54 PM

Saints/Jets would be badass, it just wouldn't be much of a game.

30-13 Saints

masr · 01-17-10, 10:56 PM

NFL wants MINN/IND
Favre vs. Manning

daneblazer · 01-17-10, 11:15 PM

at least we'd have two weeks of Katrina rebuilding coverage

TobiasFunke · 01-17-10, 11:19 PM

The network wants the NY market...

You saying the Jets will draw more fans than Manning? Not sure about this one.

WhatAboutMeBitch · 01-17-10, 11:24 PM

racer, I think it doesn't matter too much. the superbowl is one of the few maybe only games, that doesn't NEED to have great teams, players, or markets necesarily to do well. On super bowl sunday, tell me what show/network will get better ratings if the saints and jets play?

daneblazer · 01-17-10, 11:26 PM

the only ones who will benefit from the Jets winning the AFC is the NFC team and the Miami grocers when Rex comes into town.

I know it doesn't matter on Superbowl day. For us gamblers is important to understand that NFL is a business first and use this for our advantage when placing bets next weekend.

ok, i'm not sure if I follow. but you are saying that the NFL is gonna try to fix the superbowl to get the best matchup to boost ratings? so you should bet accordingly.
Is that what they did last year?

LOL yes.. he is saying this and that a NYJ v NO game would get bad ratings. People tail this guy?

Imagine the headlines: "Favre vs Manning" or "Brees vs Sanchez"

If you wanted to market your sport what would you choose?

WhatAboutMeBitch · 01-17-10, 11:35 PM

brilliant move to have the Cardinals make it all the way to the super bowl last year. Huge market and what an anticipated Rivalry matchup that was

frostno98 · 01-17-10, 11:46 PM

Either team in the NFC going to the Superbowl will be very entertaining. I don't care too much for the Colts or Jets, so it won't make much different to me for whomever represents in the AFC.

odusmykal · 01-18-10, 12:00 AM

Jets + Saints = I will not watch..

Brock Landers · 01-18-10, 12:03 AM

thats what they said about last years matchup, whats the point of having teams where they are if one matchup is better (on paper) than another just because of which city they represent.

I'm sure no one will boycott Cleveland vs Green Bay if it happened.

yellowman · 01-18-10, 12:05 AM

NFL is praying for Favre-Manning...watch the calls (or lack of) next weekend...the refs will get the memo

Carseller4 · 01-18-10, 12:07 AM

I think people will watch just to see how many pts the Saints will put up on whoever they face.

Carseller4 · 01-18-10, 12:11 AM

Plus if the Jets do make it: Expect Sanchez to make a Namath like prediction! That will bring some viewers.

Isn't the New York market the biggest market in the U.S.?

I'm rooting for a Saints/Jets SuperBowl now....although I think it will be Saints/Colts.

tblues2005 · 01-18-10, 12:18 AM

Jets fans will go nuts! They will be loving it!

blueghost · 01-18-10, 12:25 AM

got to agree with the refs getting the memo from head office.remember one of these guys wants to be referee at the big one ... do you dare cross your boss when you could be the guy that 100s of millions watch when the yellow laundry hits the turf at the super bowl..well would you

INVEGA MAN · 01-18-10, 12:32 AM

The ratings will be down because new york has no fans.

Al Masters · 01-18-10, 12:37 AM

DUUMBEST

So to sum it all up......poor ratings if small market team NY Jets make it to the big show, but they can't because the refs are in on the NFLs plan to make sure Farve meets Manning in order to better market their sport..... what does this all mean?.......... it means that when you post at a site for 3 years daily and reach 25k posts in such a small time frame the effect on the brain is compareable to 1 year of daily Crack use.

icsky3 · 01-18-10, 12:38 AM

I would watch it for sure.
