As we have seen with Hollywood and places like CNN and newspapers, it doesn’t matter. To ESPN and others, liberalism is a deeply held religion. They will financially go down with the ship rather than make any course corrections.

Sure, you can say that newspapers were dying in the age of the Internet, but the hard-core leftist slant clearly hastened their demise.

Similarly, people who are cutting the cord are, in part, running away from funding things like ESPN, MTV, and other obnoxious anti-American offerings that have heretofore been purchased via a package mandate. How many YEARS have customers been demanding and being denied ala cart programing? Not the means to cut the cord exist and people are running away.

The NFL once had the golden goose. Now they too have never heard before half-empty stadiums, and informal boycott, and declining viewership.

Good luck ESPN. The trend is definitely not your friend.

Hated you when you left for the Yankees and shaved because Steinbrenner said to. Johnny, all is forgiven. I’m a fan again now.

ps. Still won’t watch ESPN.

Nice work NFL and ESPN. What a great tag team you turned out to be.

You did serious damage to two sports entities in one move. Just brilliant. /s

ESPN is a Disney property.

The following 4 piss in our shoes daily: Disney, Comcast, Viacom, and now AT&T.

We watch sports to get away from this political crap! I mute all the sports I watch, basketball, baseball, football. And turn on a nice Pandora station for soft music while I keep my Kindle handy for the commercial breaks. A nice way to enjoy an afternoon. For me, these “commentators” don’t exist, they have no voice.

Urge your cable/satellite provider to drop the ESPN networks.

He really thinks the people who watch sports as an escape from politics will stop if it’s just more politics. Where did he get that idea?
