Was the NFL channel's 3 part focus on TO an insult to football fans?

Frankly, I am sick to death of hearing about that jerk. Great athlete and all but definatley a non team player, attention grabbing fool.

I won't bother with the NFL channels coverage any longer. They just fan the flames of crap.

    you raise a valid point, but unfortunate as it is T.O.'s antics and visibility brings more people into football. For instance my wife didn't know who TO was until last season even though we live in the SF bay area and I've been a season ticket holder since 2000. It was the media hype and the images of TO doing sit ups in his drive and got her to say "who is this guy."

    While us long time football fans, especially those of us who played high school or college ball are disgusted by TOs selfishness he does bring the league more viewers and ultimately more revenue and profit. And money is the name of the game in professional sports these days.
