re: Why did they cancel ESPN Player

Download the apk time app on the firestick ( go to the firestick search, it's there ) open & scroll down to the kodi forks section, download a preloaded kodi version (includes a build). It will include several sports sections where you can find all games. If you are unfamiliar with kodi or enabling firestick to sideload apps, google & youtube are your friends. You will need to familiarize yourself with kodi to activate the build from the wizard.
