I actually thought she was dead.
At the 84 Final Four at the Kingdom I was snorting coke on the concourse with my girlfriend when Jean walked by and smiled at us. Now I wish I had suggested a threesome -

sloppy or fake this is just embarrassing
However, while basketball viewing has helped ESPN’s numbers, their liberal commentary shows have not. B&C states, “Sports commentary shows like ESPN’s SportsCenter were down 7% in viewership. Ratings for ESPN were down 7%, and ESPN2 was down 34%, while Fox Sports 1 showed a 34% increase.”
It’s important to note that while ESPN2 has moved “First Take” and some other opinion programming over to ESPN, ESPN2 remains the home for some of the network’s longest running and most popular shows, such as “Mike & Mike,” “Around the Horn,” and “PTI.”
Two things - PTI and the rest are main ESPN shows that re air on the Deuce.
FSI is 34% up over a couple of dudes watching by accident.
I like PTI because its two old guys shouting at clouds. I like Highly Questionable because Bomani is the best talent ESPN has and they don't know it.
It sounds like age is the issue. Youngsters today probably think most of the talent is too old, not too right or left. In my opinion -
Yes Whooshy, I have, When NBC and Fox decide to air track and field and infomercials over NASCAR on their main network, you know it's a dying "Sport".TierbsHsotBoobs said:

NASCAR was built on personalities. They lost that and went corporate.
My brother and I watched it on Wide World of Sports when we were kids and the King was up there with the greatest in any sport in name recognition -

tbh, hats off to those fucks. instead of saying "hes got a great motor, coaches kid, coach on the field, blah blah blah" they come out and say "white tailback? yeah, hes white and hes going to be a first round draft pick."priapism said:A sample of ESPN's upgraded content today.

I still watch every now and then and actually bet on a weekly pool with a couple of my Power Ranger buddys and we go to Sonoma every 3 years or so.RaceBannon said:

Killer pre race airshow as well. The kind of slice of Americana that libtard will never know.

Jean was also a klepto. She had to be escorted when she shopped at Nordstrom.

I like around the horn as well -
PTI and Around the Horn are okay.
Highly Questionable is AIDS, Ebola, a heart attack, and stage 4 cancer wrapped in one. -

Now they just need to get rid of Desmond Howard. Ftg

You have to be retarded or old to still have cable. It's called Kodi and Reddit.UWhuskytskeet said:
Last time I checked virtually no one offers a la carte subscriptions, so unless people are dropping cable altogether based on ESPN's programming, this piece is bullshit.Tripper_Johnson said:
It's pretty simple why ESPN is going tits up. You have to watch a 30 second commercial to watch an 8 second highlight. No Thanks. Every article that's worth reading is their insider bullshit and no one is paying to read an article. They give their main magazine piece every month on the website for free, so the magazine is now obsolete.
Then ultimately cable is dead. Soon your internet bill will go up $15 a month and 100+ channels will just come with it. -
I even got my 77 year old dad to use Kodi

Good. Fuck that shithole.DerekJohnson said:
Provide something unbiased and entertaining. Otherwise fuck off -
Why was this posted in the Tug?
Anyway nothing gives me greater pleasure than to see that ship sink. Thought this article summed it up nicely.
"Sure, you clicked over to ESPN to watch sports, but what you’re actually going to get are “Crossfire”-esque segments of non-athletes making dumb arguments about topics you don’t care about."
