Yep, not sure what that guy is arguing about. The apps, without prior use or preferences are showing womens sports first. He isn't responding based on 1 to 1 comparisons (app vs web), so is disingenuous for some reason (but will claim ignorance).

Not sure what the possible angle is other than trying to claim woke corporations aren't woke.

only when you dig through a menu for it to pull up a list of sports leagues

It absolutely lists the men's games first on its home page of the app and even when you dig into its lists of leagues, it also puts German minor league soccer ahead of the NFL. So yea

He thought a had a big gotcha and rolled in with an aCkShUaLlY and fell on his face with it so now he’s trying to just backpedal out of it

Honestly I'm convinced the entire Disney Corporation will eventually be hostility taken over at some point. The leadership is fricked and their stockholders are brain dead.

They figured out that people will assume it's men's and click on it, then go find the men's. It's a click generator.

ESPN is trying to turn everyone gay. That's what's happening. It's big, gay, sports conspiracy.

LSU fans get women's scores first this time of year. They know their preferences

Everyone else gets men's scores

It’s like when you go to the grocery store to buy milk, but they make you walk through the candy aisle to get there. They already know you’re going to buy the milk, regardless, so why not tempt you with impulse buys, more content.

Maybe ESPN wants you to watch the games they are showing.

ESPN is broadcasting the women’s tournament and not the men’s. That’s why. Their agenda is to promote what they’re actually broadcasting.


They had the women above the men on the front page last week when they were playing on the same days.

ESPN has been doing this with the NCAA Tournament for years.

If the tournaments are competing same time frame, the women"s tourney always gets the Marquee....even to 1st round women's games nobody is watching...Uconn103, Arkansas St. 34. ESPN is the king of false narratives, makes sense as a subsidiary of Disney....oh and Gatorade and their awful fake grievance commercials about women athletes.

They try to pump up the women’s as if it’s equal or more relevant than the men’s it’s pathetic. Try harder espn


While Disney for sure has an agenda, this is about promoting your own content over someone else’s and not so lush to do with social justice

It drives me crazy during the regular season the sports channels don’t differentiate between Men’s vs Women’s on the guides.


This is annoying

I am glad someone else is getting irritated with wbb scores often getting shoved in the mix of mbb scores.

Yes wbb does have the small line and small font that indicates itself as women's basketball ...but I am scanning names and scores and always miss it.
