    Latest round of ESPN layoffs: How would you fix ESPN? Can it be fixed?

    in The Stadium Wall Archives

    Posted · Edited by Don Otreply

    ESPN needs to look at what is working in sports broadcasting currently,  and emulate that. They likely have far to high overhead costs, and that needs to be trimmed.  As we have all seen, a lot of sports fans get their knickers in a twist when real life events show up in their bubble, so adult issues need to be avoided for those customers.  If they address those things they will likely have more success. Jmo.

    RIP WR Titus Davis (only 27)

    When I was stationed at The 2nd Marine air wing, Cherry Point NC, town of Havelock, we had a young man in our squadron, who worked in the GSE/ground support equipment shop, he was diagnosed with cancer about a month or so  later he had lost sixty pounds and died shortly after, it was a sad time at VMA-331 squadron.

    But Mercury is in Retrograde, and Momson (or whatever his name is) likes our Josh now

     

    I think that it may not mean what one thinks....it's talking about mobility behind the LOS, evading pressure and making a pass, right?

     

    So it's actually a sign of a mobile QB who does not get *too* mobile.  Ryan is pretty shifty in the pocket and makes guys miss.

     

    Momson lies... 😂

    Would the Bills have turned it around under Ralph Wilson’s stewardship?

    I live in the alternative reality that speaks English.  Apparently you have trouble understanding it.

     

    What I was saying is unless you're a big name which McD and Beane were NOT, they would not get big contracts or have bidding wars, so likely RW could have afforded to sign them.

     

    I then stated:

    "if they do well and RW then doesn't want to pay me the going rate for a 2nd contract, can easily leave then and get into a a bidding war."

     

    A bidding war with whatever of the other 31 teams wants to then sign them.

    I got that, and I also got that your scenario, as pleasant as it sounds,  just never happened while Ralph owned the team, so it remains quite unlikely to have chance of occurring, frankly ever..., again nuthin but luv. 😁👍🍺 why so serious...
     

    Go Bills!!!

    While I don't disagree with what you said about RW, both Beane and McD were brand new coaches so unless you have some existing cred on your bio like a Chip Kelly or maybe the guy out in Arizona or even a well established coordinator like Kyle Shannahan or Brian Shottenheimer, without that new coaches don't get huge first contracts here or anywhere else for that matter.  There are rumors of Dabo leaving Clemson for the NFL(doubt he will IMO) , he'd get top $$ if he did.

     

    So likely RW could have afforded to sign them and since there's only 32 head coaching jobs in the NFL, they'd probably still have jumped at the chance figuring if I do well and RW then doesn't want to pay me the going rate for a 2nd contract, can easily leave then and get into a a bidding war.

    A bidding war for a former bills HC ? With Ralph as the owner? In what alternate reality are we talking about?  Nuthin but luv 

     

    Go Bills!!!

    I guess so, but I sure as hell wish we had a separate section for "Around the NFL" or something like that.

     

    We need an additional sub-forum.


    A thread of this type shouldn't be in this section of the board, IMO.

     

     

    Evidently we need an anything  pats related topic sub forum, for our endless stream of resident patriots fans that dislike their own board and post here...
