ESPN (A bunch of Death-Spiraling maroons)

Speaking of commercials, they are just awful on the app. All I saw were student loan refinancing and a terrible sunscreen public awareness message from the FDA... over and over...

It made me long for the Rotel and farming commercials from the early BTN broadcasts.
Not sure if you ever had ESPN GamePlan about 14 years ago, when they showed the same fucking Old Spice body wash commercial every...single...break.

Looks like another round of mass layoffs are on the horizon

More bad news could be on the horizon for ESPN. Staffers at the Worldwide Leader in Sports are bracing for another possible round of layoffs late this year, multiple sources tell Sporting News.

The next round of cutbacks could come down in late November or early December, with 40-60 positions potentially being impacted, according to sources. The layoffs could hit both on-air TV/radio talent and behind-the-scenes production staffers.


"This time it won't matter if you're 'liked' or not. It's not going to be pretty," one source warned.

Another source expects the flagship "SportsCenter" franchise to lose people in front of and behind the camera. "I see (ESPN) going down a path where they have less staff — and hire more production companies to provide programs and fill air time."

ESPN declined to comment.
