#2 All you have to see is how the "cool" new show is Michael Smith and Jemele Hill. This is a show aimed at BLM types and concentrates less on sports then pop culture.

There are still a few shows I like on ESPN but they are no longer the go to if I want to spend some time vegging out.

absolutely unwatchable. The establishment I ~~frequent~~ ~~occasionally~~ ~~infrequently~~ ~~visit~~ once when to turned it off after the complaints rolled in. They're worthless and trying to be SJW and URBAN. Good luck paying yer bills, bitches
