Sports & Politics This section is for all political sports talk. Regrettably we feel that in some instances there is no way to eliminate politics from football, basketball, and baseball hobbytalk. Do you pretend nothing is happening with the Warriors, Steelers, A's, etc? This section is for all political sports discussion. However, it is for civil discussion only. No insults aimed at members, political parties, or politicians will be tolerated. There is no warning. If you cannot be civil, you will lose your posting privileges on this site.

Default ESPN is becoming unreadable

They think it's now a team stat of what each team does for the anthem. Top headline was what Miami did, and they are maintaining a tracker of what every team does. Next do we need to know how many times Brady and Giselle bone after the game or what the pregame meal is?

Becoming? They've been a social network site first for years now. Amazing miscalculation about what their readers and viewers want. Give us the highlights you fools.

You would think a sports show would show sports. But we also thought MTV would show music videos. Silly us, we got 16 and Pregnant

This is why I find myself watching MLB and NHL network more and more these days. I'm sick of political coverage on sports networks.

Ignoring the NFL is the only way to solve this. I watched about 30 minutes of the Steelers/Ravens game only because I was cleaning and had the game on. The weather is nice and I'm tired of hearing about the protests. Probably the least amount of football I've watched ever.

Yea, I used to change the TVs at work first thing in the morning to ESPN, then got sick of Stephan A Smith, and found out we have NFL Network. Been rocking NFL Network for like the last 7 months, but not anymore. Im leaving it on this Adventure Animal Kingdom crap.

Similar. Used to watch ESPN all the time. I'm more into baseball, and once we got MLB Network.. it was a wrap.

Quite frankly, I think it is absurdly blasphemous that ESPN has the audacity to allow their anchors to bloviate adnauseam about the plethora of...what the hell was I talking about?

I think I have a case of the Screamin' A. Smith's.

Well that is true but there's a lot of evidence that Bigfoot exists. In fact it's possible he's an alien and that's why there are never any corpses found. I feel like I've had this talk with you a1000 times in the last 20 plus years I've known you

And I'm still not convinced of any of that nonsense.

What evidence? That time they had a cooler with Bigfoot remains, you got all excited, and turned out to be road kill?

The 6pm Sportscenter is atrocious and un-watchable anymore.

They both need to go back to Around the Horn.

Well that's before I knew the news was fake. Thank you President Trump.

They have footprints and hair that doesn't match any known animal. Plus what about that one video where he's walking and turns back and looks at the camera.
