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.

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.

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 

Do like the college football coverage.  Probably is the last reason to watch for me

Asheville traffic is bad enough. Please no...

      I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.

      If you need some ‘chills’ to start your Friday….

      When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
