rajncajn Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Disney will start process to spin-off ESPN, ABC in 2023: Wells Fargo (yahoo.com) Can't see how this can make it any worse. TBH, I haven't watched ESPN for years other than the occasional Saints game or video clip. Just not a fan of how they create drama to drum up a story.

Shaft Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I think this would be great if picked up by an organization that cares about sports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Other than MNF there isn't much I watch on ESPN. They are an Entertainment first network, having people like Screaming A-Hole Smith & Skip Baseless are part of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With screaming Steve? And yes E stands for Entertainment, and sports are a secondary thing to other things that provide what they see as entertainment value (since people watch, it continues).

Unless it's an actual sporting event ESPN is unwatchable as far as I'm concerned. It's all the same corny BS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
