Their decline has nothing to do with them being leftists.


You weren't watching espn anymore because you probably have a job and not enough time to watch their programming beside what you really want too.

I used to watch sports center exclusively while getting ready for work and while falling asleep. I don't watch it at all. I can't stand the leftist push and the constant advertisements and sponsorships of the show segments between commercials.

I had a job and watched espn.

I still have a job and don't watch espn anymore. And I don't work as hard as I used to.

I don't watch espn anymore because it is no longer what it used to be: about sports and an enjoyable pastime where we could get away from pain in the arse subjects like political opinion, preaching, social and political agendas.

Now it's agenda driven. And that's why I turned it off.

I'm here to tell you I used to be an ESPN lifer... and I don't watch the show anymore because it's too busy pushing a liberal agenda.

I think the last straw was when Caitlyn Jenner received the Arthur Ash Award for cutting off her sack.

So fewer people are in the workforce and you think time available for sports viewing has decreased?

Not in the least. Total hours spent watching sports has likely increased. People seek out other venues to watch sports either due to political differences or dislike of ESPN.

Also there has been a proliferation of competitors most of whom don't do politics as much.

It actually has everything to do.

I fricking quit watching it for that very reason.

I cut off satellite altogether. I'm tired of the propaganda being shoved down my kids and my throat.

I'm sick of the media. Im sick of celebrities telling me what the frick to this k or do.

I watch the Andy Griffith show. Old 80s sitcoms. Old movies from classic cinema. Amd some news.

I read the rest. The kids and I come in from outside at dark.

We play, work, cook outside. They fricking love it.

We sleep like a bear. No more screen mind control shite.

We read. I taught myself to design apps (first one going on Google market soon) and willearn the guitar next. Been looking for a camper for us to take out.


It's fricking liberating. You should try it

It's a big reason why I don't watch anything but actual sports on the network.
