It's the material that they cover. We all know it.

Don't incorporate politics into sports talk.

ESPN should be embarrassed of what they've become.

ESPN the NFL and NBA have made it crystal clear:

If you are :

1. conservative

2. Christian/jewish

3. Love God

4. Love America

5. Love Military

6. Love law enforcement

7. voted for Trump

8 Are white

If you are any or all of these things....You aren't welcome

They wanted a war and now we're going to finish it

I can't even watch it anymore. All they do is talk politics. If I wanted political talk I'd turn on Fox news

There is no embarrassing them. They have been completely unwatchable for decades. They deserve to go out of business.

I turned on Fox Sports 1 someday last week during the morning. Who do I see? Chris Carter and Mark Schlereth. ESPN is totally unwatchable. Fox will end up crushing ESPN into oblivion.

Why Hawk? He fits their narrative at ESPN just like Jemele Hill

The pendulum is swinging back the other way.....as it does with most things.

There are two prominent local sports writers here (one who worked for a local paper and one who worked for the AP) who left their jobs to go to a company that allows them to do what they do best...write about SPORTS related things without all the B.S. It's on-line content with no pop ups....no misc. political crap. No distractions. Amen.

I think part of the sports society is tired of all the extra crap and just want simple stories about the things in sports that interest them. They get bombarded with all the other crap from other media outlets.

ESPN is going to have to decide what they want to be moving forward.
