Colts President Polian Claims Networks Ignore Team Because They Win Too Much

COLTS CLAIM INDY WINS BY TOO MUCH FOR TV NETWORKS: The official site of the Indianapolis Colts quotes team president Bill Polian today on why there are so few primetime games in the RCA Dome: “NBC told us they don’t like us at home, because we tend to win by rather large scores and that doesn’t make for good TV. Monday Night is ESPN and I think we’re only on once – Jacksonville.

They chose Jacksonville as the host there. That’s partially the schedule-maker and partly television and partly how they juxtapose the schedule and fit every game in. It tends to run a little bit in cycles. We’ve had our share of Monday Night games at home, I think, and this year it tends to go the other way.

Well if that were really the case, why aren’t our Chiefs hosting half of the Monday Night Football schedule this season?
