I got ad blocker too. The video that ‘floats’ in the bottom right, was not an ad. It was silent but I found it constantly dragging my read attention away from the content.

fyi

Read an article couple months ago about Barstool sports positioning themselves to step up as the new ESPN.

“I’ve pretty much switched to just watching the highlights, can’t sit through whole games anymore, especially with all the woke commercials you have to deal with.”

we pre-record the football games we care about and then skip everything but the 13 actual minutes of play in each game ...

“At least half of the sports programming I watch is with the volume completely off. The wokester announcers are insufferable. “

ditto ... esp. since most sports announcers don’t know squat about the game they’re announcing and just parrot numbers and stats whispered in their ears by their producers ... and Sean McDonough is absolutely the worse for that since he drones on about all of that useless information in a coma-inducing monotone ...

Haven’t watched any TV for YEARS in this household

What a shame, there goes your dance moms.

Be a player, not a watcher.

I used to be a crazed college football fan, and now, meh, i think i’ll go for a hike, or yard work. It’s just entertainment that no longer entertains, so it’s not worth my time.

Go Dawgs, Go Noles, Had to hate Shiny Pants Head Ball Coach. Now, meh.

it’s the total over-saturation of sports on TV.

Hahaha - I was at an airport sports bars last week - and some kind of professional KICKBALL was on TV

Please explain to me how the college football team is not part of or affiliated with the college. Is the coach not employed by the university? Do the players not attend classes at the school? Who grants the players their scholarships?

Please explain to me how the sports teams “engaging in woke anti-American activities” as you suggested about the schools.......

Teams supporting BLM, a Marxist anti-American organization that has committed terroristic crimes.
