Wouldn't change a thing, and I'd continue to roll around in a vault full of gold bullion, Scrooge McDuck style.

I'd move the HQ from Bristol to the south. I'd get rid of all the michelle beadle cowherd type shows and produce a lot more 30-for-30 type shows.
I'd bust a cap in Berman and Hannah Storm.
And lastly, topless Tuesdays.

Its a good question. I'd run it like a business and maximize ratings. Which is really what they are doing. I don't know why people feel the need to expect objectivity out of them.

I wish they would do this and just have ads pop up on the bottom of the screen or something. Still make money but I can ignore them

No more twitter updates from athletes. Nobody gives a shite about that.

Drop the Sports Reporters. That show is nothing but intellectual goofballs who never played a sport.

Stop replaying stories. If you show a Tom Rinaldi story on Gameday, don't replay it throughout the week on Sportscenter. Sportscenter is too long bc of stuff like this.

I'd pay somebody to make those decisions for me. I'd be to busy playing golf on the nicest courses in the world, and hanging out on my giant boat

Second I'd get rid of the morons like Skip and Stephen A


Noooo.

Skip is a moron, but he's entertaining. Stephen A. is cool.




I'd make all of the female reporters report in the nude.

They would suck Alabama's dick on every program and talk shite about Auburn.

Lee Corso would have to pick Alabama to win every game on Gameday, and also every game Bama plays is Gameday.

Get rid of all female on air reporters over 33 & have total nude broadcasting by female reporters between the hrs of 1:00 am & 5 am for all us all nighters. Contact whoever did Jimmy Hoffa & give him the contract on Lou Holtz. At the end of each program, list the salaries of the talking heads who just signed off so we know just how much BS costs nowadays, i.e. Mike Greenberg of Mike & Mike supposedly makes $2M a yr.

ESPN only cares about Danica Patrick to get casual racing fans to tune in.

That needs to stop.
