nasboat posted:what I found particularly grating was that I drifted into sportswriting because I could write and I love sports -- seemed obvious. Then I spent night after night missing the actual sporting events that I enjoy watching, instead having to write 20 inches on a 78-25 blowout win in a high school girls' basketball game. Before college, I chose between going for sports journalism or teaching. I'm happy to know that I was smart in avoiding sports journalism. Unfortunately the same poo poo applies to teaching.

Crazy Ted posted:Adrian Wojnarowski chides LeBron James for shrinking in the clutch because he didn't take the potential game-winning shot in the NBA All-Star Game I saw this on twitter and knew it would be posted here. thanks for helping me stay sane. Goddammit Woj. e: The poo poo that gets me is the language he uses. Like it's some mark against his MASCULINITY that Lebron attempted to pass the ball. And that poo poo is being propagated by this guy jackofarcades fucked around with this message at 01:23 on Feb 28, 2012 |

TOOK YA LONG ENOUGH, rear end in a top hat. To provide context, the author, Josh Barro, is a gay conservative.

MourningView posted:NFL network is doing well but the other ones seem like they have a pretty hard time getting on basic tiers. If you look at college the Pac-12 was the one league that tried to do a network without partnering with ESPN or Fox and it's been a disaster. Plus networks are still shelling out a ton of money in rights fees because sports are the biggest reason people keep cable. More to this point: https://variety.com/2021/digital/news/wwe-network-peacock-exclusively-streaming-1234890954/ WWE has been trying to get this thing going for like a decade, tanked their PPV revenue, and never got past like 1.5m paid subscribers (down to 1.1).

Strauss is the worst of them, but I've never come across any Warriors media guy that is anything but insufferable. A bunch of smug assholes who bought into the "light years" thing and think their team was like, morally correct, and everything else is selfish basketball.
