    Sam Ponder.  
    She is great.  
    Agree that Hannah Grill Storm getting a pass is bullshit.
    RGIII was not great.

    How Ravitch has a job in Baseball tonight is astounding.

    Why ESPN doesn't bring back the old style baseball tonight and show highlights is exactly why Baseball viewing is down...  Bobby Witt Jr highlights should be posted every single day for him.

    They were showing baserunners taking leads and going nowhere instead of, you know, the pitch, on SNB last night. Did they put the interns in charge after laying off all the people who knew what they were doing?

    I love PK Subban, but ESPN’s hockey coverage basically sucks.

    some say ATH was too “woke.” guess what? for a network that talks breathlessly about trumpers like eldrick, TB12,  saban, rob manfred, jack nicklaus, mike gundy, 90% of team owners, saquon, etc, etc, etc. it’s sometimes refreshing to hear people not afraid to speak out.

    ATH was an echo chamber though.  I enjoyed some of it but in the end it was who could remember the most "facts" or stats. I couldn't stand Pablo or Kines on there.

    ESPNs lack of baseball coverage is very telling.  They must not be getting paid by the MLB like the NFL is.  Also Karl Ravitch is terrible.

    They are ending their contract with MLB after this season, option out 3 years early. They clearly don't see baseball as worth covering. So, more WNBA games in future summers....yay?
