The clips make it sound a lot more serious and dismissive than it was in the context of the hour and their long history of loving with espn correspondents by cutting their mics (and those people being in on the joke which I feel like was the case here)They even started the hour saying that they wanted to make the next segments like pro wrestling.

UFC had him fired from Fox Sports gigs because he reported on stuff that UFC didn't want out, later kicked him out of UFC 199 and banned him for life because he broke the Brock Lesnar coming back to UFC story before UFC announced it, and also UFC got him banned from covering Mayweather/MacGregor DJExile posted:Helwani was paid by Zuffa for years. He may not be any more but if you're going to pass yourself off as a journalist today, something like that should absolutely follow you forever. his "paid shilling" was doing reporting and analysis on Fox Sports coverage and production that involved a weird payment scheme with Zuffa reimbursing all of the talent on the show with money that Fox Sports paid Zuffa. also it was like 3 or 4 attempts at UFC trying to permanently blackball him from the media ago

So they're not even doing a multicast thing where they have different broadcasts, just putting Booger and Witten on 3 different channels and having a spanish speaking crew for Deportes? I can't figure out what this is supposed to accomplish.

this isn't a completely new thing for example, the vma's have aired simultaneously in recent years on mtv's sister networks (and ratings continue to plummet no matter what)

https://twitter.com/awfulannouncing/status/1088895532594999296quote:This won’t have live matches from any competition, but the replays will be available reasonably quickly. With Champions League matches, SI executives told Patel they can get replays up by the evening of the same day. With Premier League matches, NBC has exclusive replay rights until midnight the day of the match, so there will be a bit longer of a delay, but that’s still not too bad. lmao v hype to see highlights of 1 team's matches 24 hours after they happen

If people aren't listening to Katie Nolan's "Sports?" podcast you're making a huge mistake. Best ROI in terms of comedy and time investment around.

It’s especially infuriating considering the owners have spent the last four months putting locks on their wallets to the point where the two marquee free agents are still unsigned two weeks before ST which I don’t think has happened before
