I enjoy speeches like how they got to where they got. Those are nice. The lecturing society stuff is diminishing returns.

This reminds me of people that should never be allowed in popular clubs because they are bad news. The club is amazing and everyone wants to go - beautiful people, fun atmosphere and still packed at 3am. Then the owner decides to relax the dress code to get the extra revenue. Someone get to shooting. Then not only do you lose the original crowd, even the jackwads that like to cause trouble don't even want to go. Then the club closes. That is Woke businesses in a nutshell. Liberals don't want to watch it anymore but they help destroy it on the front end.

My problem is I would never wanna be part of a club who would have me as a member.

They used to be really good 20 plus years ago when it was wall to wall sports but now they all want to be accepted by the liberal SJW crowd. The white guilt idiots on there make me want to smash the TV. For the record I never watch them only see their garbage when I’m at a bar and for whatever reason the put on the woke network

This is where ESPN and CNN get their viewers. Turned on in bars and gyms even when the place is empty.

Ratings for last weekend’s woke ESPY Awards crashed to the lowest numbers the show has ever recorded. The ESPYs only earned 482,000 viewers over both ESPN and ESPN2 combined, making it the smallest audience the show has ever reached dating back to its inaugural awards in 1993. The previous low occurred in 2011 when 1.98 million viewers tuned in, according to Sports Media Watch.

Viewership fell 88% from last year (3.87M) and 2018 (3.94M), with the obvious caveat that the event aired as normal on ABC in those years. Viewership also fell 81% from 2014, the last time it aired on ESPN (2.55M).​
The decline has continued on a downward trend since 2015, the year the awards went full woke when Caitlyn Jenner was awarded the “Arthur Ashe Courage Award.”

I didn’t even realize the Espys was scheduled. But... I haven’t followed it for a few years now either

Nobody wants to watch a bunch of leftist hypocrites posing as Sports Analysts and Broadcasters.

If there have been no sports for months why would I know about ESPN programming? I have no other reason to tune in and most feel the same way

I never watch the ESPY's, but I always know when it is broadcast because I see ads for it when I watch live sports on ESPN. I had no idea it was the ESPY's because I'm not watching live sports on ESPN. I imagine the same is true for others.

No sports in 3 months. Who’s gonna know about it.

ESPN’s $793 Million in Ad Sales on the Line With College Football

No company has more money tied into the fate of this upcoming college football season than the Walt Disney Co.

The dominant corporate force in college sports, Disney’s ESPN co-owns two conference networks, has broadcast deals with nearly all of college football’s top division, and televises every major bowl. It also owns—literally—a large chunk of the smaller postseason games, and controls commercial rights like sponsorships and naming rights to the biggest.

Last year ESPN’s family of networks televised 282 games and sold $792.5 million in ads, according to Standard Media Index. To put that in perspective, ESPN’s NFL package only generated $314.8 million. Those numbers don’t include the college games televised by ESPN’s ACC Network and SEC Network, nor the plethora of other matchups streamed on ESPN+, its digital service, which costs $5 per month and is popular among football fans.

The sheer scale of the company’s college football business will create a lot of headaches, and lost revenue, if the season is further disrupted. The Big Ten and Pac-12 have already nixed early-season games and some smaller conferences, like the Ivy League (an ESPN+ partner), have cancelled fall sports altogether. The NCAA’s board of governors meets Friday and could vote to cancel all NCAA-sponsored fall sports.

Should college football’s doomsday scenario comes true, ESPN will have to negotiate make-goods for ad buyers, and sort hundreds of millions in rights payments it owes to schools, conference and bowl properties. Unwinding that billion-dollar web of payments will be a Herculean task.
