ESPN's 32% ratings crash - layoffs happening
I watch it quite a bit because I love college basketball and watch the MLB during the summer. Also I think the 30-For-30 movies are all quite good. So I'm watching more than I ever have, but apparently nobody else is:

It is for me.

Parking at a sports bar near my home is a minimum of $10 dollars. A round trip Uber would likely be $7-10 dollars. Neither includes food or drink, which would run $30-40 dollars without a tip.

Add in KU BB, bowl games and the occasional Royals game and it's a steal, IMO.

Bullshit.

You don't live in an NBA town so your perception is skewed.

Tell people in NY, LA, SF, Miami, San Antonio, Dallas , Clevelansd and Indy that they aren't NBA fans and towns.

Good grief. The myopia on this site is at an all time high.

Exactly.

The NBA is on the verge of a historic TV deal because viewership and interest is at an all time high.

March Madness is an insane ratings grabber in which CBS pays $1 billion per year to the rights and they actually earn revenues!

His post was silly and uninformed.

Fair enough. I don't watch any of those and could easily spend my Monday nights doing something more productive if it came down to it.

Basketball has become a minor sport but because ESPN paid so much for it...it gets shoved down our throats. Overkill.

For me, it's less about being "cheap" than it is about optimizing value. I cut the cord 6 months ago not because I can't afford it, but because I'd rather spend my money (and time) on better forms of recreation and entertainment. I simply don't get enough out of watching random NFL games these days to consider something like ESPN to be worth it.

Nonsense.

EVERYTHING is driven by advertising dollars.

If viewers weren't watching, ad money would be decreasing and ESPN would be losing money on their investment.

That's not happening.

I can understand March Madness getting the ratings but not the NBA.

Look at the threads that get started on here about the NBA games it's like non existent at best. Even the local sports stations don't spend much time on them what does that tell you.

I have to say I totally agree. Especially the NBA.

But you don't live in an NBA city!

Do you realize that there are more people in California (40 million) than all of Nebraska, Minnesota, Missouri, Iowa, Arkansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Kansas and Missouri combined (26 million)? Hell, the Los Angeles basin alone has 22 million.

I hate to break this to you all and I don't want to come across as a dick but the bottom line is that the networks couldn't give two shits what your area numbers are for the NBA.

It's ALL about the West Coast and Upper Northeast. That's where the population, therefore viewership and ad revenues, are in this country. Networks don't even bother re-broadcasting TV shows to the Central time zone at their designated time slots on the East or West coasts.

And NBA basketball is huge in those regions, which is why they're nearing a record TV contract.
