“Equity”. It’s like the new female “announcers” thrust into football who can only do player commentary because they have absolutely zero clue how the sport works. That and they forced flamboyant gay guys all over the talk shows who
have zero clue about anything other than player drama and retards like Stephen A Smith, but I repeat myself.
And horsesh*t minorities and prominent Sportscenter hosts pushing the White man bad angle, literally ALLLLL of the time. Jemele hill. I'm looking squarely a you. They fired all of the conservative people, including those black and women. Why the fuck the brought her back is beyond me.
Quite literally, I'd watch The OCHO over anything on regular espn now.
I remember hearing they wanted to do an ESPN women’s network but I guess they decided against it. I have no issues with women’s sports except the WNBA because they guilt trip people for their low ratings
It’s only a website and “digital platform”. They floated the idea of making it a channel back in 2012, then backtracked, floated it again in 2021, then backtracked.
Yeah, it turns out they can’t even get half of females 16-29 to watch female sports (only about a third “express interest” in watching women’s sports) and an entire network would have been an unmitigated disaster.

I remember when they blew up Michael Sam to an insane degree. I knew it was the beginning of the end.
There’s a few “commentators” that were mind numbingly dumb and I didn’t realize until later on they were quota fillers for “diversity”.
And they were upset at the backlash because shockingly ppl didn’t care about some 7th round gay dude.

There is already an ESPN W.

Really? Didn’t know

As a teen I’d watch women’s college volleyball but I can’t say my interest was purely for the sport
The only mainstream women’s sport is tennis, but that’s because tennis was at the forefront of second wave feminism in the 70s.
In my high school and college years, I dated a lot of volleyball and soccer players. Still don't know the rules of either sport.
