ESPN (A bunch of Death-Spiraling maroons)

Dana White SHREDS ESPN with simple truth...pay attention to when the UFC CEO starts quoting ESPN fighter payouts vs. UFC payouts. CLASSIC.

That video is priceless. Multiple times the interviewer is left speechless by information the CEO brings.

That is because the interviewer did all of his research on the subject on his own network's website.

I have a feeling that ESPiN will fall hard within the next 5-6 years when it come to viewership and television rights to games.

Dana White Responds to ESPN - YouTube

The part grad is referencing is around the 9:00 mark in the video. I don't even care about UFC, but that is awesome. Makes you wonder what kind of stuff we would see being manipulated or cut out of stories if there were a second party filming the interview not just at ESPN, but with pretty much any outlet.

If ESPN had signed the UFC instead of FOX, that piece regarding fighter pay wouldn't have seen the light of day.

It's a joke at the hypocrisy shown by ESPN these days in the stories/subjects it chooses to cover and not cover (based on TV deals and advertisers).

Dana White's animated response reminds me of his response to Kimbo Slice fighting in EliteXC.

I can only imagine ESPN's response when the Big Ten signs with FOX. If you thought they were negative to the Big Ten now...

I'm going to guess ESPN has the recruiting rankings as:

1. Alabama
2. Florida
3. Auburn
4. LSU
5. Tennessee
6. Arkansas
7. Texas A&M



8. Ohio State
9. Texas
10. Miss State
11. USC
12. Miami
and the list ends there because that's a majority of the ESPNU 150 and that's all that matters... to them.

Michigan is also much lower than any other site at 7.

ESPN:
1 ALA 2 TEX 3 FSU 4 FLA 5 UGA 6 CLM 7 MIC 8 OSU

SCOUT:
1 ALA 2 TEX 3 MIC 4 OSU 5 FLA ... 11 CLM 16 FSU 18 UGA


No southern bias there :lol:
