ESPN use to be a channel you could just leave on all day. Now it’s pretty much unbearable

[@bradnewsbear]

I didn't realize how much I took for granted getting the Triple Crown of HQ, Around the Horn, and PTI every afternoon. Then Wilbon would throw it to Sportscenter. I know a lot of that still exists but as you put it perfectly it's pretty much unbearable now.

[@Mike-ts3it]

What golden era? I watched ESPN for over 30 years and 90 percent of the dribble they put out can be repeated by ordinary sports fan. Dan was different. Started out in south florida being himself. Made it national and realized that it's all senseless and started his own thing and is now flourishing.

I remember being in college in 1993 and we would watch the same Sportscaster episode over and over again....lol. To be honest ever since Dan Patrick left, Stuart Scott passed away that was the beginning of the end. Everyone began to leave or pass away after that. John Saunders, Chris Berman,

[@Supreme36074]

Death nail has been the rise of the podcasts & shorts . As well as the other channels that are out there. Once upon if time they were the only & easiest way to digest sports. That has changed for everyone in media not just ESPN. I had broke down to watching shorts or clips to watch the subject I wanted to hear about when before we had to sit through that entire episode. ESPN, once the in air talent gets to big won’t pay them. They’ll pay on of them & let the others go & build a new one. It’s backfired after so long.

[@mjacksonjones]

The NBA show that had Amin and Tmac, and Rachel was DA BEST...PERIOD. I used to watch it religiously. The replacement show...not so much. Yes, I watch it sometimes, but mainly here on youtube and just certain clips. The old show, had KZbin tv recording it and watched most of them. Great show, great analysis. Amin 's front office experience brought a lot of insight.

[@jaranameer2882]

Most of us were out on ESPN way before these firings. ESPN stopped being a channel about sports years ago.

[@brian_and_the_car]

The chasm between TNT and ESPN re: NBA finals was so vast a restart could only help. ESPN was unwatchable pre/post game. However, the restart should start by getting rid of Greenie and Stephen A, not Van Gundy, Jalen etc.

My love for sports grew as a young boy and a teen through ESPN. I would watch ESPN at night, then rewatch the same episode on the rerun the following morning before school. It was on ESPN that I first saw Ken Griffey Jr and “The Big Hurt” Frank Thomas. I wore his number 35 for years. ESPN introduced me to perhaps my first love in life - SPORTS. The on-air talent personalities were known to me. They entertained while providing instruction and teaching about all things sports. They were my teachers. My coaches. Familiar faces and familiar voices. I watched and listened to ESPN programs for nearly 30 years. It’s not the same anymore. And it’s unfortunate.

I went from watching ESPN on TV to Clips on KZbin to now purposely avoiding them altogether. Each change of viewership was a direct impact of them letting certain people go. I am big on loyalty and SVP, Levy, SUZY KOLBER, Rachel Nichols, former NBA Talent and far too many people who should be able to go on their own terms. Suzy been their almost my whole life. Are they telling me they don't need a veteran sideline reporter to help the atrocious new people they have had? Pat's show isn't even something that works on Disney. His show will automatically get worse since there won't be an element of freedom and cursing that will not fly on disney airwaves. There was a guy with the initials of DLB sometime ago that left with a similar format of friends talking and having fun about topics THEY felt passionate about and that didn't work in terms of the restriction of what can actually be said without repercussions from the top brass of the company. Disney Killed Marvel, murdered Star Wars, butchered their own classic animations and now slain ESPN. They decimated my childhood and that my friends, is a cold hard Clint Eastwood Unforgiven for me. Fuck the castle and the four letters.

The quality at ESPN has been going downhill for fifteen plus years, but people were still hooked on cable so the money each month kept coming in to ESPN. Then streaming and other ways to watch TV became popular and people started dumping cable TV, so ESPN's cash cow was cut off. That's what they are adjusting to. They don't have the money any more.
