Not talking message boards here since you dorks think Dr. Pepper's SEC Sponsorship favors Alabama. I am talking legit media. I will go with my usual suspect that Neal McCready at rebelgrove will have a column up within two weeks.

Does your post count as a legitimate complaint?

If not, within the first hour, as the Aggot above me said.

Better question:

How long until LSU fans crank up the "ESPN and tSECN hate LSU" rallying cry?

Well from 1:00 am tonight until 11:00 tomorrow morning the SEC Network is playing 4 classic games and, according to the guide on my TV, 3 of the 4 games are Alabama wins and the 4th doesn't have a game listed (but I'd assume it's Alabama too). So I'd say a media troll complains about the Network pumping it's flagship program pretty quickly

A good start would be not putting Best of Bama on the first day.

In a lead-up to the opening game of Texas A&M University at the University of South Carolina on Aug. 28, the network will present viewers with a 14-day marathon of content, according to a news release from ESPN. Each day of the marathon will be dedicated to one of the 14 Southeastern Conference schools


Its being done alphabetically. "The Anglo Saxons are Bammers Pawwwll"

It's not, according to the guide. We just run things. Georgia and Vandy are up next.

Ah so the press release was incorrect. Looked at the guide and it says the first game is

SEC Classic Football Games - Alabama Crimson Tide vs. Florida Gators

But doesn't say what year. 2008 was a classic. 2009 and subsequent games were arse whippings.

Last two are Cocks and Aggies which make sense as the buildup for the game.

Don't know where Vandy falls in the order.

McCready was the Auburn beat writer for the Birmingham Post-Herald back in the late 90's. He took every chance available to insult Alabama. It's funny that he is now a writer for an Ole Miss site. He was always dickriding Tuberville and now he is at the place Tuberville said he would leave in a pine box. Kind of ironical, as Pat Dye would say.

Finebaum catered to Alabama because his show was out of Birmingham. Now that it's a national show I think his coverage will be a lot more even.

How long? There will be a tweet from some "respected member of the media" within the 1st hour.

You must not have been paying attention. Those complaints started months ago. I'm an LSU fan. It's embarrassing that for some of my ilk the rallying cry seems to be "so you think you're better than me?"

All SEC schools have them but McCready was/is an arrogant douche who thinks his s### doesn't stink. Think of the most arrogant, pretentious, I'm better than you frat star at an Ole Miss, Texas, etc. Take that mentality and multiply it by 100 and you have McCready. The guy basically s### on and made fun of all the callers to his radio show and had the nerve to say he was let go for not pumping Bama enough. As if constantly trolling 70% of your listeners is the same as not promoting Bama enough. The guy would get angry over random things like people not being interested in talking about the Chicago Cubs season throughout the Spring and Summer. My money is also on him being one of the first media members to complain.
