Tired of ESPN (website/commentary)

Post by BroncoBot »

Anyone else tired of the political slant that ESPN seems to constantly pushing? Where do people here get there sports news if not from ESPN? A good portion of their content is completely irrelevant to me.

Yes, I've noticed it as well. There will be some articles entirely about the BLM and no mention of sports anywhere. I don't like it at all.

I only watch ESPN when a BYU game is not. Very rarely any other time. I used to watch the sports news and highlights. Maybe I found much better choices like the business channel.

Agreed about political shows and issues on a sports channel. I pretty much just watch live sports on ESPN and most of those are BYU or its opponents.
