There is nothing I want to be. There is nothing I want to do.
I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.

Yeah but isn't a lot of that because ESPN signs things where only ESPN can carry certain leagues or events? If memory serves they have a contractual monopoly on a lot of things. Your choices are ESPN or lolfuckyou.

I remember a few years ago reading that the main reason behind ESPN U existing is they realized they bought the rights to so much stuff they literally didn't have enough time to air everything. Watch ESPN (their online arm) is amazing with all the crap they have available to watch. A lot of it is low-end college athletics, but sometimes they have cricket and other stuff.

If you want ESPN, you're paying for everything under the ESPN/ABC/Disney corporate umbrella and that's quite a bit.

It'll be the same thing with "Discovery Networks". Just look at all that programming. Enjoy whatever TLC sinks to next after Honey Boo Boo.
