there was a market for outkick..."keep the politics out of sports...well you can have them, just make sure I agree with them" guy. Really just appealing to natural sports fans, conservative males.
Who exactly is this targeting? The transgenders who feel left out of sports coverage?
While I agree and think this will fail, I also think most people in this thread are looking at this wrong. There is nothing wrong with more options, and at least the people who enjoy progressive politics with their sports can seek this option out, hopefully preventing the rest of us from having it shoved down our throats unwanted from the more mainstream platforms.

You’re not wrong but I don’t think this market is very big. You can’t run a sports network without white, straight males, that’s just a fact.
And I’m not saying this will purposefully exclude those people but it’s pretty obvious it will be geared towards people who aren’t straight and white and male.

I don't think there's anything "wrong" with it, just seems like an extremely niche market they're going for.
