FC/OT: ESPN bloodbath about to commence….
- Thread starter Midnighter
- Start date
Spending a ton of money on blowhards like McAfee and Screamin A. But those idiots bring eyeballs for some reason so they'll always have a home.
McAfee AND Desmond? Dear God what hell as The Mouse bestowed upon us?!?
He should stick to boxing. I hardly ever watch that.
Maybe ESPN will have to show more sports - what’s after drone racing - spike and pickle ball - bring back Aussie rules football for gods sake!
I would be all for Holly Saunder’s Naked Women’s Sports!!
As many here will likely agree, ESPN’s biggest sin was misunderstanding that THEY were/are the show. Sport is the primary source of entertainment, not any of their hired chuckleheads.
My Mount Rushmore of most despised ESPN personalities.

I don't watch ESPN, but is Chris Berman really on a current show there? I started watching ESPN in 1981. He was the star back then. To me, he was terrible a long time ago when I still watched it.
40 years ago, ESPN's not-a-game programming had a space - when it was the only convenient place you could go for scores and highlights.
That day ended quite some time ago, of course.
Now they have re-imagined themselves as a space where people will tune in to hear complete idiots blather on about complete inanity - and, to be honest, a lot of people do tune in for that, apparently. The idea that any of those ESPN talking heads actually had some meaningful skill or value in any way commensurate with their compensation was always inane (Yes, some people watch - but most of those same people would tune in if you dropped two rando mentally-ill street people onto the set, cracked them up, and had them jabber at each other, under the precept that it was about "sports", for an hour).
At some point, that business model may dry up. Maybe these are signs that "someday" is approaching.

Who needs espn when we have inanity here in spades? Besides, we’re always right.
Speak for yourself. I’m working on some lucrative NIL deals. There’s money in inanity.
Glad Pollack is gone. He’s useless. SmAshley Brewer, that’s some quality meat to be scrap heapin’
In case you want to know why ESPN is swirling in the toilet:
How stupid do you have to be to have men doing that? Everyone knows it’s supposed to be women in their underwear.
This is part of The Ocho stuff, right? Where they broadcast ridiculous sports for a few days?
I really don't know. I saw this post on Twitter then confirmed it was on ESPN News, which isn't news at all anymore. Another reason they suck.
