            Will it be big names like last time, or all underground employees?

                  They've literally fired all their best talent.

                      Most will go to Fox Sports or local news.

                      One of the ESPN anchors went to the E Channel.

                        Liberal networks filled with sex scandals now and are always backing the wrong ethnic agendas constantly, full of idiots on most shows that talk non-sense.. Professionalism and creativity is gone.. Personalities on the sport shows are horrific now..

                        Not surprising to see them begin to fold.. Espn has the worst sport shows.. If it wasn't for their live sports coverage I would never watch ESPN..

                        If it dies it dies!!

                              Espn ratings decline, along with the nfl, has nothing to do with some phony liberal agenda the right wing invents. It’s the way young people are now and how they watch their sports and get their news.

                                    It is all underground people that no one has ever heard of. Too bad...they were probably actually decent is why they had to go.

                                        It's like when the Roman Empire fell

                                        Except for instead of the Roman Empire it's a TV Sports Network full of ghetto trash and liberal cucks who thought it would be a good idea to offend their main audience by turning the channel into a leftist propaganda vehicle

                                            I have to agree.

                                            Trump or whoever is causing great global brands to be severely downgraded.

                                            The excuse about devices is just that. NCAA having a solid year.

                                                      Espn should be firing every black person that doesn't speak proper English on all their shows.. That would be a good start to getting them back on the right track.. It's not the Liberal Dems that were the main viewing audience, it's the meat and potato Trump voters that use to tune in to ESPN...

                                                      ESPN needs to desperately get smart white sport figures that really know their sports hosting the shows.. Not stupid blacks that can barely speak English and or stupid black athletes that have limited verbal skills with big names.. White America will tune out on that.. That's what we are seeing.. ESPN folding now..

                                                      I'm not being racist either as I'm just keeping it real.. My take anyways...

                                                        I've said it before, it's pretty much what happened to MTV in the mid to late 90's

                                                        They decided to switch their identity to hip hop, ghetto, rap, thinking their audience would come along. Sure, some of the easily brainwashable did, but their content became so obnoxious they are now irrelevant. I have noticed when I scroll through the guide they are now trying to bring back their previous audience with lots of 80's and 90's music programming. I don't think they realize that, kind of like with ESPN, many people don't want to tune in out of principle now.

                                                            I never thought FS1 would even come close to ESPN. Now, I'm tuning into FS1 more than ESPN.

                                                            Just can't believe it.

                                                              It all started with that stupid sportscenter show at 6PM.

Whether it's a business strategy or a philosophical motivation it just doesn't work, drug dealers and single parent homes with halfrican children running around aren't quality consumers unless it's shoes or diapers.

                                                                      But why are people deciding to stream? Basic cable is $20-30 a month and has a ton of channels while being very simple to use. Maybe because they have more control over content, so they don't have to be bombarded by liberal crap all the time?
