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:

There are no dominant big men? There used to be 5-10 quality big men every year. AAU ball has killed their development.

Just announced 4M customers lost past year. Over 11M last five. Down 200M/revenue each year before the new losses, which will push it to 550M/yr.
2011: 101M subscribers 2016: 89M |

I don't know what they expected. They stopped catering their shows to middle aged white guys, and younger people just don't give as much of a shit about sports.

As much as people hate Gruden and Favre, they had a special Gruden QB Camp hour show with Favre last night and it was really good. Favre is considered a gunslinger but it was great hearing him talk about the strategy of the game. The amount of information in his head was staggering. It really shows what it took to be great and how much you have to know to run an offense like Holmgren's or Reid's. I'd love to see them do more of those shows with former players, not just rookies. It was legit interesting programming.
Not sure those programs get ratings either though, so instead we get gossip hour on SportsCenter. |

ESPN has never been the same since they quit playing music videos.

ESPN lost me when they started putting ****ing tweets on the screen. Ridiculous! I watch ESPN for KU basketball and that's about it.

Yep. I used to think Dan Le Batard was awful, but I still listened. Now I never listen to ESPN radio when I'm driving home in the afternoon. Bomani Jones is the shit.

All the shows are the same concept. 2 guys arguing about bullshit stories involving Yankees, Cowboys, Lebron.

Same coverage on NFL network I'm afraid. You almost have to tape the entire show and fast-forward past East coast bias till you find the 5 secs of coverage for your team.
