Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, soccer star Megan Rapinoe and three-time WNBA champion Sue Bird will preside over the two-hour broadcast airing June 21 on ESPN. All three live in the Seattle area. Rapinoe and Bird are partners who share a household, which conveniently eases some logistics. Wilson's singer-wife, Ciara, is likely to make an appearance, too.
"We liked the idea of having athletes from diverse sports that represent something for every fan," show producer Jeff Smith said by phone. "We're finding ways to make this feel really connected to the audience. They're so ready to reach out to this community."

yep you really covered all the bases here. There's football and then two sports no one watches... so something for everyone!

the only thing worth a shite at the ESPY's is usually just the year highlight reel

This board is gonna be lit when this happens

I'll be honest, I wasn't going to watch anyway. This definitely seals the deal though

LSU football should rack up some awards.

Glad to see ESPN has finally figured out what the public is asking for in sports entertainment

If you want diverse sports reps, then a lineup of
Pete Weber
Jeanette Lee
Johnny Chan
beats the hell out of Rapinoe

But why?
To generate a buzz when the MAGAtards start melting like little bitches over it.

So the buzz of pissing off a segment of your viewing audience is worth more than not pissing off a segment of your viewing audience?

Nobody else is either
Ratings have dropped for years as they pull more and more dumbshit
Network shows that get cancelled after three episodes have more viewers and the ESPYS is on ABC
