Keyshawn Johnnson got arrested for domestic violence:quote:Law enforcement officials told TMZ that things allegedly got physical, which ended in Johnson supposedly smashing the phone of his girlfriend, cutting her hand in the process. He could get canned over this. ESPN could easily find a recently retired player who's a bigger name to fill his shoes.

Its useful in that I record SVP & Russillo so if there's nothing on at night during the week I'll just have it on in the background. So, yeah, ESPN news is the pancreas of ESPN's networks.

Buck and Aikman are loud and annoying but at least they don't lull me to sleep. Nantz and Simms are the worst. Dutchy posted:The PBP guy I hate is Thom Brennaman. To me, Buck isn't even in the same universe when it comes to crappy announcers with famous sportscaster dads. This. Thom Brennaman is slow and dull and mispronounces names so often its mind blowing.

In the NFL N/V thread but worth posting here: http://thebiglead.com/2016/04/05/twitter-will-stream-nfl-thursday-night-football-games/quote:The NFL is coming to Twitter according to Bloomberg. It was reported this morning that Twitter won the bidding for NFL Thursday Night Football games. The social media site beat Verizon, Yahoo!, Amazon and Facebook for the online rights. What unholy sum did Twitter pay to beat out Amazon AND Verizon.

AsInHowe posted:I think it's a combination of market saturation exacerbated by a steadily decreasing quality of play Is it that the quality is decreasing or we're aware of all the bad football more than ever? 2/3s of the league has always been mediocre and bad its just that we didn't have as easy access to see it with sunday ticket and red zone and all the videos, gifs and stats that are readily available online and on television. There's a similar notion with the NBA with people saying the Warriors are bad for the league and parity. Its always been a top heavy league but now that we have access to more games than ever we want more compelling teams to watch during the season.

Spoeank posted:They need to get over their allergy to eastern time zone games not playing at 1 pm local time and it would go a long way They want the slot with less games, 4 pm EST, to have the bigger markets playing to maximize numbers. A solution could be to have less games at 1pm and move the matchups there, but I'm guessing less people are watching earlier in the day?

Grittybeard posted:It seems really rare though, I mean there are like 800 people who do that job and most of them add nothing of interest at all to a broadcast. If there's an injury on the field its their job to go over and get an update on the player's status. If there's some other kind of development on or near the field they probably have to be on top of that too. It doesn't make the broadcast more exciting but its stuff we've become accustomed to getting and they have to put in the legwork to get it.

Stick To Sports is a lovely retort the vast majority of the time but this is the case for it. The TV president has picked a fight with your network and now people will you pick a side in the culture war.

MourningView posted:Barkley loving sucks, stop putting someone on TV who has actively hated the product for at least like half a decade. He has never had anything interesting to say about basketball and now he's not even fun because teams winning by doing something he was lovely at turned him into a bitter old man. Bitter old men are great for TV. More bitter old men. Their tears give me sustenance.
