I used to love watching sports center, and the NFL wrap up shows on Sunday but their decision to inject politics and "social justice" into everything makes all but the sporting events up-watchable.

Yup.

When the "hosts", grown men, many of the Hall of Famers or significant players in their own right, started crying on air over ridiculous perceived slights (see Donovan Mcnabb) and other schit, it was time to move on.

How long ago was that? A decade? No thanks.

You do have to wonder how they make their decisions when Chris Carter kept his job after the "get a guy" speech.

the days of the cameraman are limited...at some point, they will embed reactive chips to camera into the unis and you won't need anyone but the dipshite big tittied bimbo giving dipshite interviews or other dipshite thingys...

grandfather in or severance, then bye to the camera guy....some execs have to be a large portion in dollars.....

tech advancements and the share price cropping rears it's ugly head once again....

the pc world gives us big tiities on the sidelines.....big titties.....that's what all little boys love......

It was funny the other week when ESPN did a Top 11 college football poll just so it could include the #11 SEC team.

NFL Primetime circa mid-90s... should have stuck with that model.
