What does Kenny mayne do that deserves 7 figures?

I mean there is some nostalgia there. But is he even on tv full fine anymore?

I would have to think his approval ratings with millennials would be low

Yup. They don't want to pay all the money for their contracts, so they have decided to try to go out of business on purpose.

Y'all are weird.

Example: Having college gameday at the Masters. Gameday obviously airs on Saturday. CBS has Saturday and Sunday coverage of the Masters. Why would you promote a competing event with your college pregame show?


They are a sports network. The Masters is a huge sporting event. The Masters during football season is a (hopefully) once in a lifetime event. Do you expect them to just ignore the event on Saturday and Sunday?

Besides, very few College Gameday watchers would turn in to watch Gameday, then, turn on CBS to watch the Masters. They are going to watch college football all day, and mainly on ESPN networks.

This is like saying ESPN shouldn't send people to the Super Bowl city to cover the Super Bowl because the Super Bowl is being aired on another network.

ESPN has decided they need more diversity and less talent. Keeping Tony Reali because he is a “person of color”.

I don’t remember the last time I watched ESPN when I used to watch it and all it’s affiliated channels. There are many who are or will be having that same sentiment. ESPN just doesn’t get that a good portion of what they’re pandering to doesn’t care about sports.
