I've heard about it being talked about on all sorts of radio shows. Alot that had nothing to do with sports.

Because if it is a great video clip, ESPN will play it over and over until we are all sick of it...

They didn't show a clip of what happened they were discussing what happened like it was a NBA Pregame show

Well I'm sick of it now, especially since there have been fans fighting players in baseball and hockey. Hell, in hockey there was even a coach fighting a fan.

It sells. That's all there is to it. So what's the mystery?

That was too clear for me to have a need to repeat it. Take a few more minutes. Maybe it will come to you. You've never heard of talking about stuff like that getting ratings?

I just feel that talking about it on a NFL Pregame show was ODD. Two different Sports

I agree with that...and duh, they are two different sports.

I was explaining why they, none the less and in spite of that, chose to talk about it anyway. It...sells. That's why they talked about it. They are more intersted in selling and ratings then they are worried about doing "odd" things.

they are going to milk it for all they can. things like this sell and they are gaining temporary viewers who are tuning to that channel to see the fight. did anybody see the brawl at the Clemson-South Carolina game?
