I thought you liberal retards didn't stereotype? At any rate I'm not poor, fat, or stupid.

What are the reasons?
To use a frequent EZPZ hearsay reason/assertion your apparent hero Trump uses; "Everybody is telling me that.." So if that is not good enough evidence to prove JQ's assertion then likewise the same would follow for Trump's assertions. In reverse if you find Trump's hearsay comments as factual then you must also accept southerners are fat stupid lazy rednecks because a lot of people say so.

Who in the frick said I was liberal?
Lol. I just like to make fun of conservatives for all of the crying they do. For as much as liberals are snowflakes, or cucks or whatever catch phrase you guys are using these days...conservatives turn everything into some political battle and cry about it.
So, so sensitive.
Good for you

I watch ESPN for games only now. I can get all the political commentary and agenda pushing I want from the news channels, so bye-bye ESPN unless the ball is in play.
Yep.. Sports Center used to be a morning ritual for me several years ago. Now I don't even think about turning on ESPN unless I see a scheduled game I want to watch airing on it. I'd do the same if they were pushing right wing agenda down my throat. The whole reason sports are so popular is it gives folks an outlet. Don't feed me political bullshite when I'm trying to enjoy my pastime.

They also got rid of octomom Jade McCarthy. She's always pregnant.

I really do not understand where all of this comes from? Did ESPN tell you; why and who to vote for, that you should favor the OHCA, that we should appease terrorists, how we should view and react to Russia, Israel, Africa and on and on, etc. etc.
Or is it that they dared to hire and utilize women, black men and god forbid a black woman. Hey I dont like loudmouth Smith or care for Jameles takes but not because as a white man I am threatened by a perception that they are some stereotypical liberal figurehead being pushed upon me.
Very simply my choice to cut the cord is based on other readily available alternatves, cost and the substantive value of the programming offered for consumption...those who want to blame liberalism being championed are simply wrong and there very own ultra defensive attitudes and prejudices are at the root of their claim.
Drops mike on floor and leaves.

If you can't see it, you're too biased in your views to acknowledge its existence. It's very evident they took the SJW "cause" and ran with it a few years back. I care nothing about the color of the skin of people they hire. You pulling that card tells me all I need to know about you.

That simple premise is so hard for many to understand.

There has been political bullshite much like: Bruce Jenner( courage award), BLM, Colin Kaepernick, Michael Sam, etc invading my personal escape from politics.
Tony Kornheiser also compared the Tea Party to ISIS.
Pull your head out of the sand

Wow Trumpsters are a slippery defensive bunch.
I will give you Jenner hype, that was pretty much BS that I to found to be cause for channel switching. Also to some degree the Kornheiser reported statement of which I will take your word on. Still do not know the context or if it is fair to say it was a condoned/pushed act done while performing and representing a ESPN viewpoint. I acknowledge the comparison is somewhat exaggerated.
The rest would be legitimate reporting on events having a tangible impact in the sporting world and in fact they presented both sides if the issue. Sorry if you think lazy ignorance is a way to go through life or prefer sticking your head in the sand saying "not my "America""

lol at people who think politics is a big influence in this. People cut the cord because cable is expensive and we have entertainment alternatives now. We don't need highlight shows and the shows you guys would probably label as their biggest political offenders (the "embrace debate" style shows) draw their highest ratings (which not coincidentally is why people like Stephen A and J Hill don't get fired even though they are annoying) I know I'm wasting my breath because it's fun and convenient to blame libruls for the downturn of ESPN, when it reality it's just a company losing to the competition in a free market. They were spending money on sports rights deals when they should have been putting more investment into figuring out how to better monetize their digital platform
This guy gets it.
You nailed it. On point.

Yep. Lots of confirmation bias on display on this board today from mouth breathing simpletons

I like these guys around here but most won't do anything research beyond clicking a provider link. ESPN model is dying because of forecasted numbers for growth will not be expected to be met over the next 10 years of TV contract revenue rights, people are cutting the cord simply put. I don't understand why some here always want to link everything to politics. Everyone wants someone to blame...I guess.

Not shocking at all . The main personalities are the problem but they will not be the ones to loose their job. Besides ball games I can't stand to watch any of their shows .
