I left Chattanooga in 2010 right when they were laying the lines in my neighborhood
Yep the hourly folks and low level salary folks in the research department and behind the camera got the first axe some time ago.

What ESPN needs to do is this:
Get a fitness/nutritional type show for stay at home moms or people who like to get fitness tips. Call Jillian Michaels. There is no reason at 11-3pm when not a damn soul is watching they should be having sportscenter on. Get cooking tips..weight loss tips...have regular people on there with fitness coaches.
Beef up documentaries and original programming. They may need to jump on the bandwagon on some Ninja Warrior/Survivor show.

Yea I'm surprised there are not more documentaries on ESPN and I don't understand why you need NFL and NFL insiders...There should be just ESPN and ESPN 2, no need for espnu and ESPN news

That's what I thought too when I got right of cable 5 years ago, but the opposite happened the price went down and my speeds went up.
Stopped following ESPN almost 10 years ago besides for the actual games. Social media killed them...First Take was the only thing people were still holding on to.
Surprised to see Ed Werder and Jay Crawford.

That's because it hasn't hit the point yet where companies are losing money having people cut the cord. Please believe it's coming.
It won't because then the cable companies who also sell internet lose enough money off TV they'll all just add bandwidth caps and force people to ration out their streaming habits or pay ridiculous overages. The content providers on the other hand will go with a Netflix model where they make shows and sell stuff online.Folks actually think this cutting cable.....hustling passwords shyt gonna work forever.
The bad part is people think paying $60 a month for well over 100 channels is bad. In the future you'll probably have to pay that for 5-6 channels.
The cable bundle may be expensive but it's not bad and folks won't be saving money by not paying for channels they don't want. The option to drop the channels you don't want means the ones you do want will simply cost more.

The competition went up. AT&T, Verizon, and Google. Cable company isn't the only player anymore.
No doubt, but even then those cats offer cable too.
I think what it really shows is that these mufukkaz been eating good and are still making a profit even with the reduction in cable/sat subscriptions.
I agree with everything you said .I also expect this to affect the next few NBA drafts because guys are going to want to get to the second contract while still in this current cba. You have career role players signing contracts for 14 -18 million a year , the stars are getting 200 million thanks to this t.v deal.
They did that for like 20 years
