ElwoodCuse posted:The Olympics are poo poo. No other country does that tape delay bullshit or assumes that unless someone from YOUR country has a shot at a medal, you don't care. Their excuse is "it gets ratings" but they've never tried it any other way so how do they know? Let's be honest that's because for almost every other country it would mean showing about 10 events. Also, I've watched the Olympics in China before and they do the exact same poo poo. Hope you enjoy weightlifting badminton and table tennis. Plus NBC does end up showing a lot of events that Americans have no shot of medaling in, it's just usually shown live. For example, badminton, table tennis, and women's archery among others all got a decent amount of air time.

I watch Game of Thrones and like Andy Greenwald/Chris Ryan but I had zero interest in watching After the Thrones. Just seemed like a terrible idea for a show to air the next day when all of the analysis/interesting poo poo is posted on Reddit in 15 minutes.

Bill Barber posted:She's an individual citizen. She didn't make any of these statements during ESPN airtime. She's entitled to her beliefs and the ability to express them. She (and probably all of us that work for any large company) had a social media clause in her employment contract that restricts what she can say on social media to avoid situations like this. That said, it's outrageous that the White House Press Secretary would advocate for the firing of someone just because they criticized the President.

Because of poo poo like this: quote:ESPN said Wednesday it had hired Katie Nolan, the popular host of Fox Sports 1’s “Garbage Time,” but did not offer details on her exact assignment. “She will have a prominent digital presence while also making appearances across ESPN studio programming. Announcements regarding her specific assignments are forthcoming,” the network said in a statement. quote:Nolan said: “I could not be more excited to have a prominent digital presence while also making appearances across ESPN studio programming.

General Dog posted:That would be pretty lovely of ESPN since they don't seem to have any beef with PFT and Big Dog. There's a difference between not wanting to be in business with Barstool and not letting any of your employees even talk to them. ESPN’s stance seems to be ‘we don’t want to be associated with Barstool’. Employees showing up on a Barstool podcast would seem to go against that

Bill Simmons hasn't written anything good in years and part of me thinks the only reason I ever read his stuff was because I didn't know any better. Drew Magary is consistently entertaining and writes the best skin-deep weekly NFL preview. That said Grantland/The Ringer are both great and Simmons is employing/has employed some great writers. I love the Ringer NFL Show podcast, I'll listen to anything that Chris Ryan is in, and somehow listening to David Shoemaker and Bryan Curtis talk is incredibly soothing.

EvanTH is right though? It's creepy and inappropriate but like using the correct language is important and the dude isn't an actual pedophile. Plus focusing on the age thing seems to be missing a broader point which is that even if Chloe Kim was 18 it would still be gross to view her accomplishments through the lens of 'I want to gently caress her' Adun fucked around with this message at 03:11 on Feb 15, 2018 |

Also Pizza Hut just jumped on the sponsorship opportunity and the corporate speak from NFL HQ is tremendous:quote:"The NFL and pizza appeal to the same demographic, which is everyone," said Renie Anderson, the NFL's senior vice president of partnership and sponsorship management. "Fans watch our game and they do it around a pizza box. That's why it's one of the most important categories in sports sponsorship."

I’ll be honest I stopped listening to PMT and just unsubscribed from them after downloading the LeBatard show for the first time. It’s just a much better and funnier sports show that’s not really about sports. And it doesn’t have so many lovely segments and problematic fans

LeBron’s business advisor or whatever the gently caress had the worst quote thoughquote:In a recording of the video obtained by The New York Times, Nichols and Mendelsohn paused for a moment during the conversation after Nichols said she planned to wait for ESPN’s next move. Mendelsohn, who is white, then said: “I don’t know. I’m exhausted. Between Me Too and Black Lives Matter, I got nothing left.” Nichols then laughed.

I never used an English name instead of my very obviously Asian birth name even though I moved here in elementary school. I'll never forget going a pretty senior interview and being told at the end by the guy interviewing me that "my English was a lot better than he expected". Stephen A said some stupid poo poo but I didn't really read it as anti-Asian. He probably would've said the same poo poo if it was a Spanish-speaking player that used a translator. Calling for the guy to be suspended/fired is just stupid. Let him show contrition and learn from his mistakes.
