ESPN (A bunch of Death-Spiraling maroons)

I like how it took a bunch of market research and user data for them to figure this out. Seriously? It's pretty unanimous among sports fans that ESPN should step away from the political side of things - and its been that way for years. They had to do research and collect data to come to this conclusion...... freakin idiots......

That might actually go a long way toward explaining ESPN's steady decline over the years. In the beginning, they were a group of sports fans, looking to give other sports fans a network they could embrace. Then, through the years, the sports fans on staff were gradually replaced with businessmen and media gurus who weren't nearly as interested in the sports as they were in making money. The resulting product sucked (and continued to suck worse each year) until you get where they are now.
You basically just described NASCAR, men’s tennis, pre-Tiger PGA, WWE, etc., etc.

I mean, Stephen A. Smith can't even cover what he's supposed to cover sports-wise, why in the hell would I give a squirt of piss about whatever political opinions he might have. (Just an example, I don't know if Smith has ever given anything approaching a political opinion)

"Dwayne Haskins is more of a runner than a thrower. Vote Sanders, 2020!"

Well if he did, I'm sure it would be equally coherent...
