The N in ESPN about to stand for nobody

A curious take. Trent Dilfer could relate better to 90% of NFL QBs than Steve Young, one of the 2 or 3 most gifted QBs in league history. Chris Collinsworth is 19 times the analyst that Irvin or Carter is.

 

What makes you think Irvin and Carter are analysts? They are the innocent dupes of a racist producer. They are the punchline to an inside joke

 

We're doing well, thanks.

Let me know when you'd like to send that tax refund, as I'd like a new set of Titleist AP2 irons. I don't know what it is the last two years, but when I got there five years ago, we were making a number that anyone who publishes actually journalism, outside of Vogue or Vanity Fair, would have died for.

 

Glad to see at least one print publication doing well.

 

They're on different networks. Do they have the same producer?

 

Forget it. He's rolling.

 

TigerVols might have hit on to something here. With the cuts they are making in Bristol, among other things, ESPN is, for a lack of a better word, over-saturating themselves with their platforms. And, they are facing a potential situation similar to newspapers as far as the changing dynamics of the medium is concerned.

 

But with a newspaper losing a subscriber - it's just one subscription. Somebody disconnects from cable ESPN loses one subscriber/potential viewer for each of their channels.

 

The ESPN.com scoreboard was pathetic last night. Went to look up the Caps score, which I knew was well into the second period, and they had the score as 2-0, end of the first. I went to nhl.com and found out it was 3-0 end of second, so ESPN was pretty much a full hour behind. WTF. I thought score feeds were automated.

 

If ESPN gave 2 shits about the NHL, I'd be concerned.

 

I do not wish to cudgel with you boss, but I respectfully don't think you'd win that bet.
And five years, as we all have seen, is enough time for shit to get real in the print industry.
I have never seen the paper product being held or read in public.
(I am mostly referring to the ink-on-paper product, here.)

 

Cris Collinsworth was a good player.
Curious? People have always rolled their eyes when a shitty writer has tried to confer power and insight.
Especially when the shitty writer tries to tear apart his betters.
I don't see much of a difference.
