I was watching the Zags/St. Mary’s game (good game btw). Well I just let the TV run to sportscenter. And jesus, they’re recapping this 76ers/Celtics game and literally the only thing they can talk about is Joel Embiid/Rihanna because she rejected him a long time ago? Like they’re even interviewing his teammates about it. Like, who the hell cares? They just beat the best team in the East, talk about the game.

Bravo for eschewing the obligatory excuse for why you were watching ESPN for the first time ever.

Well to be fair, TNT was doing the same thing for a while.

I turned the channel as soon as the game was over. It’s empty filler like that why I watch less and less Sportscenter. I have no interest in athlete’s personal life. Flip over to FS1 for the Pac 12 game.

I mean...it is the biggest story coming out of that game.

And TNT’s Kristen Ledlow literally asked JoJo about Rihanna immediately after the game. It’s a funny story, take it easy. Besides Kyrie didn’t even play that wasn’t Full #1 seed Boston Celtics and it showed

Don’t watch ESPN anymore, it will set you free. I don’t miss anything.

The ALS pepper challenge on the NBA show last night was the most cringeworthy thing I've ever seen. Michelle Beadle brought in jalapenos that she grew herself and they weren't hot at all.

No, no, no. That’s not how the MSB Motto goes it’s “Don’t watch ESPN except for LIVE SPORTS”

That's TV sports and news in general because you can get highlights and scores and any news online before they air their sports/ news shows. So they have to be info-tainment and show "human interest" crap. Whatever news network you watch.....Fox, CNN, MSNBC, Info Wars....they already assume you know the latest and just try to tweek your emotions.

The only way you stop giving ESPN money, is if you unsubscribe. Not watching them doesn't when you've already subscribed doesn't do much.

This is the dumbest response to people discussing things here.
