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

Bruh, Bluey is S tier TV. Not even even with the caveat of being for children, Bluey slaps. Bandit is the dad we should all aspire to be.

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.

The only thing Disney needs to lay off is those high price hikes on their already overpriced menu in the parks as well as lay off those increases on the tickets into said parks. Try laying off some of that first. Disney is one greed driven monster that's for sure.

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.

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.

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.

That would be nice…hope it happens

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.

Take away college football and idk that I hardly ever watch anything on ESPN anymore. Some F1 here and there

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.

Disney is planning something very big for next year and is clearing the decks to create cash now.

 

Or maybe their poor decisions are catching up with them.
