To what extent do you watch ESPN?

I used to love SC. Then all the anchors I like left, every segment is sponsored by someone, and it's super political.

It has also turned into TMZ



My viewing essentially consists of live sports and special occassions like the draft


I know many people like this, so it's not hard to see why viewership is down. But instead of getting back to basics, ESPN is apparently doubling down on what they're doing

No one here watches until they do and it triggers them to start a thread about all of the minorities on the screen.

I only watch ESPN if LSU or the Saints are playing.


But I do watch a lot of Rugby on ESPN3.

I didn't make an active decision to only watch live sports on ESPN like many here.

It just happened over time as I wasn't interested in watching the debate shows and didn't care for the new Sportscenter anchors and found myself watching less and less until it was not at all unless there is a game on.

I will only watch live sports from now on. them fricking up R&K was the final straw

I'm a cord cutter but never really cared about it and now I am glad that ESPN isn't getting my money

I am hoping all of this is the beginning of a slow and painful death for ESPN

Not sure I made an active decision, but I did find myself liking the product less.

I don't watch as much of the debate stuff as I used to, but I find that other networks have taken ESPN's formula and executed it better

Me neither. Just don't care about any of the other crap they put on.

Should have watched the draft on NFL network.

I still DVR PTI and outside of that only LSU football games.

Use to also listen to lebatard and Russilo and Kannel but after they torched RK I'm boycotting their radio station altogether

All frickin week of this




Let's Talk 100% here. The majority of this board watches ESPN everyday so they can be outraged and run to the MSB to cry how the LIBERAL AGENDA is taking over or some shite.


Example last night, when people had 2 options to watch the NFL Draft, what did the populous choose........ESPN

I know many people who stopped watching Sportscenter years ago, we'll before this shite to the left. The fact that people act like ESPN can go back to their old highlight shows and be just fine is ludicrous. ESPN hasn't handled the changing landscape very well, but leaving well enough alone wasn't the answer either.

If you stop watching ESPN but don't tell the MSB about it, did you really stop watching ESPN at all?
