Good points. Will no longer watch Pardon The Interruption on ESPN and I’ve watched from the start. Wednesday’s opening was the last straw in a long history of straws. Just enjoyed it too much to give it up. Until now. Lifelong SI subscriber too until several years ago when they went full homo. Dropped another thing I had enjoyed, for decades in it’s case.

I used to watch too; for a debate over sports.

I will add that some subjects have contrary opinions that are allowed to be presented, i.e. should marijuana be tested, the concussion problem, ownership vs. player relationships etc...

Unfortunately certain subjects are shielded by informed opinions that run counter to the ideology the networks promote. I don't feel sorry at all for them because they are the ones who shot themselves in the foot.

Wilbon and Kornheiser have let their politics and their friendly relationship with obozo - I believe they have both golfed with him numerous times - infect the show. It started out light and witty and funny. No more.

As for SI, I hear you. There is not an article anymore that doesn't jam in some fawning reference to obozo and almost every issue hits the gay-transgender issues. In a for-viewpoint of course. Add to that that back in the day SI featured outstanding writers - Dan Jenkins and Frank Deford to name two - but now... more a bunch of SJWs than sportswriters (I do like Alan Shipnuck on golf). I let my subscription lapse last year.
