All Brady had to do was decline comment or just refuse to talk politics in general. He brought this on himself.

To me I don't see what the problem is with saying you support someone for president. Probably everyone's going to look like a dumb rear end after Donald Trump is elected president and Tom Brady hangs out with him.

It seems to me like you lose the ability to play the "I like them personally but disagree with their politics" card when you're supporting their run for President of the United States. That's typically a pretty strong endorsement of their politics.

Crazy Ted posted:In the interview, Wambach nailed the exact reasons for the international football pay gap, and proceeded to dismiss it that the same time by saying "treating people equally shouldn't cost money" or something like that. The Men's World Cup brings in something like 200-300 times the broadcast and sponsorship revenue that the Women's World Cup does. Of course the bonuses for the men's teams are going to be multiple times higher. Was this before or after Sepp Blatter said the key to making people watch the Women's World Cup was to make them wear booty shorts?

I don't know why we even have elections when we could just have a conclave of Brady, Favre, and Tebow where they anoint the next president with sacred oils wiped from Madden's brow.

The collapse of ESPN subscribers has begun, and it's affecting Disney's stock price enough that it's dropped while at the same time Star Wars is dominating the box office. More and more cable operators are getting the idea that if sports channels want the kind of money they do, they should be a la carte premium networks like Showtime. Since I grew up with parents that thought sports were dumb, and couldn't enjoy any sports at all until I was nearly middle-aged, I have to empathize with people who don't like sports but see nearly half the cable bill going into sports carriage fees. We subscribe to what is basically a "gently caress Sports" package with no ESPN or regional team-controlled channels. It'll be interesting to see the affect on salaries (I guess particularly in baseball where carriage contracts and free agent spending frequently align) if that eventually becomes a more and more popular option.

Huh. Vox wrote an article today sourcing that for Disney's falling stock price. I check this thread off and on but got tired of the Grantland hubbub. Still, I wonder what the economics would look like if, say, they took the blackouts off MLB TV and let people who just wanted to watch baseball buy it directly and let all the non-fans sit out.

FlamingLiberal posted:I don't understand why they bother having separate sites if it's just going to aggregate them all anyway. Because a lot of Kotaku readers probably don't overlap with a lot of Deadspin readers probably don't overlap with a lot of Jezebel readers. They built up their individual brands enough that people don't notice anymore that Gawker is a useless piece of poo poo company that pushes the same dumb garbage under their handful of different websites and intersperses it with ads.

Ribsauce posted:Standard. I don't even know who writes there anymore. I still go to their frontpage at least once a day but I don't know why. Well I do know why, it is an ingrained habit from years ago when the site was not atrocious. I probably open an article 10% of the time I go to deadspin.com , and honestly 10% may be high. Maybe my new year's resolution will to quit participating in the hater olympics by giving them pageviews every day. It's hilarious on Deadcast whenever Tim Marchman the EIC waxes lyrical about Deadspins editorial neutrality and arms length deals with sponsors. Especially when they are lambasting ESPN for their relationship with FanDuel and DraftKings when there are DraftKings adverts running in the middle of the podcast. Deadspin seems to be more and more clinging to the occasionally acclaimed piece of actual journalism, like the Manti Te'o story or the Greg Howard piece on The Undefeated, while those stories become rarer and rarer on the site.

Has it been noted that ESPN have been floating $4million a year to keep Skip Bayless around? I can't find a solid link to it, but I've seen Richard Deitsch mention it a few times since before Christmas
