So I look forward to seeing newspaper video teams on the sidelines, too … and benefiting from the pool coverage …

Hey Marc,

Most teams also have their own coach’s shows and team shows. Some also have their own publications and radio shows, that doesn’t cause them to shut down access to TV, newspaper and radio.

My sports team’s one-on-one interviews in the locker room won’t appear on NFL sites anyway. The pressers will, but not the one-on-ones.

C’mon Safran; act like you’ve been there before.

And this is great news. Now more stations will have more good video that can’t go online.

Web media has been a target in San Diego for years. It has been explained to us that we are considered competition because each team has it’s own web video team.

This is great news! Now, let’s hope they don’t pull the plug totally on the web for weekday interviews and press conferences.

Wonder also if they plan on extending that ban - if they put it in place - to training camp?

Why is the web singled out? TV, radio and newspaper can still cover the team for the most part the way they used to.
