ESPN ratings down more than any other sports network
Jul 22, 2015, 12:39 PM

Interested read, and shows that the mothership is alienating a lot of college football fans.
I used to watch sports center every morning, Dvrd Parden the interruption and College football live every day as well. Now I have cancelled my top tier cable package and don't even have ESPN anymore. And it doesn't bother me one bit.

I hardly ever watch ESECNP anymore. All the SEC hype turned me off the network. I have
the SEC Network on my cable and also refuse to watch that channel.

I don't understand why so many of you waste your time with the extra key strokes to ESECPN, you failed to get that right. I will watch the SEC Network though...When the gamecocks are in the midts of blowing 4th quarter leads.

I noticed that, but would imagine they have only continued to fall.
There is nothing worth watching anymore on it of me, except actual live sports which they really don't have a lot of until college football season.

You are probably right about that.

Probably why they pulled the Jenner stunt. I do know they are still in full cost cutting mode. I'm wondering if the SEC Network didn't cost them a bit more than expected.

I don't watch it either. If I want to listen to a bunch of hyped up BS, I can always watch CNN.

Well he's getting 6 million a year at Fox

And apparently ESPN matched and tried everything to keep him, but he wanted to leave. I don't think he's getting banned anytime soon. He's extremely popular. I love his show. It is intelligent and funny.

I only watch ESPN when there's a ball game on I want to watch. I don't watch any of their analists shows, any Sportscenter, or listen to any of their radio shows. They've got people on there with such an over inflated ego I couldn't stand to hear it anymore. Usually when I watch the ballgames on there I turn the sound down, especially if Clemson is on, I listen to the radio for sound.

ESPN is more personality and less sports

ESPN has become a bunch of self righteous liberals who are more worried about how players feel rather than the tactical differences of the teams. I do not care how a player feels. I want to know why one team will beat the other.

Eventually, one would hope, they will realize that the vast majority of their audience doesn't live in the SEC footprint. They disenfranchise the east coast, northeast, most of the southwest, the west coast, northwest and the mid-west markets and populations.
What goes around comes around.
