Sounds of the Game????

The voices on the video clip are not the ones I am talking about below.

The Bills beat the Colts last night in their 3rd preseason game. There were a lot of positive things but I have talked about them in my previous blog and until the regular season starts I don't see a reason to keep repeating myself. Instead I am going to vent about something that is bugging me.
Last night the Bills went into halftime up 17-0 over the Colts, everything was going their way. The announcers hosting halftime managed to not say one positive thing about the Bills. In fact the only time the Bills were mentioned was at the start of the broadcast when they said the score.
So if they are not talking about the team that is winning, in the game they are watching what were they talking about? How great Peyton Manning (who was not even suited up to play) is. Oh they also managed to kiss a little of Tom Brady's ass. We Buffalo fans can never hear enough about how wonderful #12 for the Patriots is. For the record he was not playing anywhere last night either.
Now the Bills don't always give you a positive reason to talk about them but last night they did. Instead of seizing the opportunity to bring up names we don't hear every week of the regular season, the announcers decided to discuss 2 players that probably have more media attention then anyone else throughout the season. This is wrong and needs to be changed.
Look, I am not asking for anyone to praise the Bills for a preseason win over a team that didnt even have their best player but give credit where credit is do. I can watch sports center all day and hear about whats going on around the league I watched that game because I'm a Bills fan and that's what I want to hear about.
