ESPN is a fukkin MONOLITH

They are a machine on auto pilot even with the stupid shyt they keep doing

People watch it cause they love sports not BECAUSE OF STEPHEN A

That is the miscalculation that they made by giving a clown like that that contract
Ratings say otherwise

Are people actually watching first take. You go to any Fridays Applebee's or any restaurant on your lunch break and first take is on TV at the bar but nobody is watching.

That alone will inflate numbers but nobody is watching

You go to any sort of waiting room and there are only 3 options, First Take, Fox News, or HGTV.

GUARANTEED

But the fact that it’s First Take and not ESPN in general says a lot more than people here are willing to admit.

I ain’t protecting anyone.

shyt is a basic question. If you get rid of someone, it is safe to assume they will be replaced by someone else correct?

If every person y’all hype up who discusses the NBA is Stephen A level or worse, then what are we really talking about here?


Personally I like hearing Antonio Daniel’s discuss the game on Sirius. But he on midday for a reason and nobody been beating down his doors to make the big boy jump.

People want to hear Stephen A, people want to hear Perk, people want to hear Barkley, it is what it is.
None of what you say has shyt to do with whats in article.

But I don’t think they ought to allow him to harm their image

Ja Morant being a fukkin goof with guns on IG is harmful to the NBA image. SAS hammin' it up is simply entertainment whether you like it or not. :manny:

Y'all are way too sanctimonious when it comes to the NBA's coverage and it's figures.
