Is it really that much better than the content I can get on ESPN.com or any number of free blogs?

You’ll really like the soccer stuff.

Absolutely, the amount and quality of content is awesome for $5 a month.

It is a place of innuendo and lies and a protectorate of the establishment

You're paying money to read some pencilnecks worthless opinions on sports.

Yes The sight has some very good and very bad
College football- good Feldman , Aaron Suttles, at times staples. Bad Nicole Auerbach, chantel jennings ,grace raynor fsu guy. Feldman is college football woj but much better writer.
NFL - haven't followed NFL much but liked mike Lombardi articles . They also have jay glazer.
NBA- my favorite NBA writers are at the ringer.
MLB - awesome. Peter gammons, jim bowman and ken rosenthal. I really want to like enos sarris but he is kind of weird
College basketball- last march madness hit grand slam with stories.

Ken Rosenthal hasn’t lifted more than a 5 lb dumbbell in his life. The dude was obviously the nerd the jocks got to do their homework

I found it to be worth the money. Blows ESPN, out of the water IMO

I have it mainly because they got me with forgetting to cancel.
The stuff is excellent but I’ll be honest, I forget the app is there.
I just don’t have enough time or interest like I used to do deep dives into basketball, baseball and football analytics or rewinds, which is where I think a good portion of their content excels.

If you have the app you can read 5 articles a month without any subscription and judge for yourself.

Is that a lot taking away from your student load payment?

Its college football coverage is excellent. Overall, I think the content is better than ESPN’s subscriber content. MLB teams have their own beat writers as opposed to ESPN, which really only covers Yankees and Red Sox.

If you like the story behind the story, you will enjoy it. It's excellent.

I’ll never pay a premium for a company that employs Jamele Hill
