ESPN's 32% ratings crash - layoffs happening

[RunKC]

First take and the show with Lebatard and his dad are perfect examples of why ESPN now sucks. Nobody wants to watch that shit. It's terrible, boring television.

And SC isn't fun anymore. Only SVP really appeals to people nowadays bc he seems like a solid talent ready to take off.

As far as the NFL goes, NFL Network beats the living shit out of ESPN. Mike Mayock, Rich Eisen and Daniel Jeremiah are awesome for draft content. ESPN simply can't compete there and it's a huge loss for them considering people love the NFL draft process from the senior bowl to the combine to draft day.

Then you have Kurt Warner, LaDanian Tomlinson, Terrell Davis and Michael Robinson who are good former players with enough entertainment and intelligence to captivate an audience whereas Trent Dilfer, Ray Lewis and Herm Edwards are terrible, and so is the Monday night countdown crew outside of Tom Jackson.
Also consider that the teaming of CBS has really done NFLN a lot of good as well. Having Bill Cowher and Tony G join your team is a huge huge boost.

Oh, and last but not least, looking at Erin Coacarelli on TV is a luxury everyone will agree with.

NFLN obliterates ESPNon NFL coverage.
