ESPN lays off employees, with more cuts to come

Hopefully it’s making another season of Bluey so I can stop watching the same 3 seasons with my kid.

I think this could be the most universally agreed with post in Huddle history.  

I'm probably beginning to recite Bluey episodes in my sleep.

ESPN has been garbage for over a decade.  I would not even care if they ceased to exist because is stopped watching that channel over a decade ago. I have it blocked on my streaming package just to cut down on the channels I have to skip over. Good riddance.

Now that they have the NHL, or at least part of it, I have actually turned ESPN on for a few hours.  Otherwise, I'd thrown in the towel on them a decade or so ago.

And they suck at NHL coverage,  too.

Yeah cuz Disney doesn’t make enough money yet 

Speaking of Disney I heard on the radio today that Disney World might be coming to North Carolina. Nothing final but it's being considered as a real possibility.

 

My guess is somewhere out West with a lot of land would probably be the location. Asheville makes sense.

I have noticed ESPN spends a lot of time talking NBA and not just at playoff time.  First take is 80% NBA or it seems that way.  I usually turn it immediately 

They definitely play favorites like Lebron and the Lakers or Dallas Cowboys.  It annoys me personally

Probably more than 80% and it’s year-round. You’re more likely to see a 10-minute report in August on someone in LeBron’s camp mad at someone in the Lakers’ FO than a report on an NFL player.

It's NBA playoffs to be fair. They usually discuss the NFL during the NFL season and playoffs.

 

They would lose viewers if they only discussed one sport.

    • I feel like anyone within the Panthers fanbase no matter where they land on Bryce should agree on this. He's a good kid. He's intelligent. But ultimately is he going to ever be the guy to command a locker room? Obviously none of us can say. But I just don't get any alpha vibes from him whatsoever. Is that a dealbreaker? Not necessarily. Here's the thing though. We had the talk of his generational years ahead of his age leadership trait clubbed over our heads for weeks nonstop before the draft. But after seeing someone like Sam Darnold navigate life as a starting QB I think anyone here should be able to acknowledge homerism there are some similarities to Darnold in terms of personality. That is not what we were sold. All of this takes me back to before the draft. I just can't shake the sense that Stroud just rubbed Tepper or someone the wrong way. Was he too confident? Not subservient enough? Did they feel Bryce was more marketable and media savvy? My gut says these things weighed more into the pick than they should have. If not. Stroud more than likely would have been the selection. What's done is done though. I'm just like you though. I want to see some fire from Bryce at some point this season. But I'm expecting to be disappointed considering his first order of business following one of the worst rookie seasons ever was to detach completely and do nothing. As always. Hoping for the best. I feel like I have to put a disclaimer at the end of this post for the Bryce superfans. I want to see him do well. I don't want this to end in the worst case scenario. There now we can be friends!
    • I felt the Cam vibes on the huddle with Bryce, in fact its almost there. Threads that have no mention of young, turn in them.  Only deal is Cam had tons more supporters/nut huggers.  I honestly hated talking Cam with 90% of the huddle, in many eyes he was perfectly accurate with all his throws and if he had a legit great game the true haters were missing in action.   Cam board is now a Bryce board...
