This is a SPORTS channel not a POLITICAL channel...so they should shut up on everything except sports, and we can turn them off also...just like we have with CNN...

The Left is a parasite. It can't gain legitimacy by creating anything useful and demonstrating success by being successful.

It has to hijack institutions that are already successful, and turn them into conveyor belts for liberalism.

Would anyone really care to hear Micky Mantle discuss some social cause....or Yogi Berra talk on HIV....or Johnny Bench talk on slums in Baltimore?

Personally, I think ESPN has reached maximum capacity and unable to really function within their core job. I’d go and bring the top ten guys of the company into a room....then fire them. I’d hire one single guy to replace the ten, and let him know that ESPN is about sports, and that’s it. If he can’t do sports only....he needs to find a new occupation.

The Dallas Cowboys attempted to speak political and social issues. The players wanted to wear an “WE SUPPORT THE DALLAS POLICE” emblem on their helmets in memory of the 5 assassinated officers. The NFL tossed aside their request to do so. Seems the NFL makes the decisions...that would be those same decisions which benefit the wealthy team owners and other persons who gather at the trough of greenbacks. The players, apparently have no say until the NFL gives them that liberty. Speaking truth to power is just a one way street on occasion.
