Whether it's the endless bowls of bad football
The political agendas
The tv black outs
The committee concoction
The playoff push
The stupid TV shows
And the never ending push of CFP or failure has caused all of this crap
Most importantly the push to pay everyone under the sun

I'm going to have to disagree with this one. I think ESPN is pissed that the committee went the DEI route and let two G5 teams in.
Unless I am completely misunderstanding this, the playoff committee operates entirely independent of ESPN.
This lame-brained idea of a playoff bracket cost them at least one and possibly two solid fan bases who would have tuned in to see the first round matchups for their respective teams.
Whose viewer base do you think is bigger? Notre Dame? James Madison? Tulane?

This is what we are basing playoffs on?
James Madison is in because the ACC is too stupid to figure out tiebreakers, plain in simple
The G5 usually just gets 1 team in...just 1...
The SEC got 5...quit whining, especially on Independent Notre Dame's behalf

ESPN is the reason for so many shitty bowls.

I don't have an issue with the bowls.. that is the problem? You want less football?

Not necessarily. I just don't get real enthusiastic about it when you have to start inviting 5-7 or 4-8 teams to fill your bowl schedule because the decent teams are backing out.

Bowls with teams with losing records is bad football

They wield enormous influence, to be sure. It's almost an 11-figure endeavor for them.
