The kind of funny thing is meanwhile the radio show that literally bears his name, he's only actually hosted like 30% of the time. Pat McAfee apparently gives him constant poo poo for it.

Which is smart, they need to give people reasons to actually seek out ESPN media, instead of just having it on as background.

If you were $50 billion in debt, you'd be doing it too.

Of course, not acquiring WarnerMedia in a leveraged buyout works too. How often do they go right?

A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.
It's easy to see how it happens lol.

Commentary gets write ups, does prep work, and research on notable players in the game.

Dude being a foster kid, would definitely show up in that work. So yeah you figure after he makes a big play or in downtime as a player profile you bring that information up to try and put a human face on it.

Then it's just a matter of the human brain doing what it does best, making inappropriate connections and seques bypassing conscious thought.


Alternatively he worked on that line and thought it was a bar.

Linear cable is doomed.

We are coming close to the end of these carriage disputes.

By 2030 a bloodbath of legacy cable channels will have dried up and faded to black because no one paid the stupid price demanded to watch it in the first place.

Cable is going to continue on in some form, but the era of 300+ channels is at an end. We’ll see a retraction to the early ‘00s volume of commercial channels and a pruning of the premium multiplex to something more realistic to viewership.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
It's interesting that Charter is going that direction since Cox and Comcast still are adding channels. If there was actually competition in cable it would be interesting to see that play out.
