I don't care one way or the other. Now, if we were discussing Chris Collinsworth, I would agree not having to see, nor hear him ever again would be music to my ears.

Is there anyone left who still likes his schtick?

 

:no:

 

I did many years ago. I don't even watch ESPN any more. Too political at times.

The soundtrack of hell is him doing the Home Run Derby.

We dumped cable last year so I won't be. :D

 

We really have no more need of ESPN or any other sports highlights networks. I just go to the Brewers and Packers' websites, and they have all the highlights and interviews. If I want analysis, I go to the Green Bay and Milwaukee beat reporters. These national sports commentators are total assclowns.

This. I don't care for NFL, because it got ruined a long time ago with commercials. The TV is the worst thing to ever happen to sports.

Boomer and Tom Jackson doing the "Blitz" is still an NFL Sunday highlight for me. Edited by A rocket that ignites itself

You might be alone on an island there.

I'd say that television - cable television specifically - has brought a lot of good and bad to pro and college sports.

 

Lots of exposure, a huge increase in popularity, but also an increase in greedy, narcissistic players as well as idiotic announcers and commentators. Too much commercialization, too much hype, but better overall performances by the players.

ESPN will be unwatchable for the next 2 weeks.

They are so in love with (Because they are overpaying) for the NBA contract, it is pretty much

ALL NBA all the time on every show.

They got the finals they wanted but ad revenue is lower than expected.

So for months they have instructed staff to overly promote on all shows....

What should they cover instead? The Warriors vs. Thunder series was amazing. The finals match-up with the CAVs should be TV gold...an epic rematch with plenty of storylines.
