Turn on any national radio or television program Today and they won't spend 30 secs on a supposed major sport that is in its final 4 and has two game sevens in two days.

But I have heard plenty of the following today!

- Michigan cheating
- Regular season football
- NB fuking A first day
- More regular season NFl
- More College Football


NO major league baseball!

It's like this dead sport doesn't even exist. Hell, even hockey gets more ads than baseball right now.

But keep telling me about those 182 attendance gross...

Not looking forward to the NBA again, trashy cringe product that’s light years below the NFL and MLB.

Rangers Diamondbacks World Series might get less attention than recent WNBA finals

Phillies might be the only relevant team left

That’s because the playoffs have little to do with whom the best teams are… should just eliminate the divisions and all the wild cards and just have the two regular season league champs in the World Series like it was

It's really nauseating how they suck off the NBA year round.

Of course, WNBA has mandated required coverage and ESPN needs to piggyback that ratings disaster onto something...so make it look natural by keeping the NBA perennially on the front page.

It’s because baseball is on Fox and TBS not ESPN, they cover what they have rights to

If you scroll down slightly further on ESPN, it shows the Rangers/Stros stuff.

But yeah, start of season always garners attention and clicks. Especially the NBA and NFL.

National media appeals to the lowest common denominator so it makes sense.
