How do they let Kolber go?  That’s crazy.

She doesn't generate clicks and revenue like Smith or other loud talking heads people like to get butthurt about

 

Gone our the days of journalism and conversation. In the ways of bias, rage, and energy to stir emotions.

 

ESPN dying is what needs to happen.

It’s crazy how much they have fallen off the last 10 years, especially the last 5. Sad for the people losing their jobs (they’ll be fine, I’m sure). But hopefully they get back to having decent sports shows again and not a bunch of former players bickering all the time

Correct.

 

But the other side of the coin is networks can no longer demand the fees from cable/satellite providers that they need to float. Cable/satellite is hemorrhaging from people moving to internet based media.

I'd be curious to know how much worse off specific networks are based on availability with over-the-air broadcasts.  I know they are still measured in the Nielsen ratings OTA but I'm sure it took a hit on their bottom line from it not being watch on cable/satellite. 

 

Early at the start of streaming media I switch to Roku and bought a good digital antenna and pointed it at Buffalo to pick up the games that were only aired in market to get by.  Everything was just streaming for me. (still puzzles me how Rochester was IN MARKET for blackout but OUT OF MARKET for local broadcast only).

Kellerman used to be good on HBO boxing

I could see that.  Never really cared much for boxing until the last year or so but he does have that same type of delivery that I see from the commentators and announcers now.
