That's a pretty damn good deal for them. Also Barstool isn't permitted to advertise any sportsbooks, which was a big chunk of their advertising revenue.

Sports TV is a lot like sports, you get hired to get fired, but if you're not a total jackass, somebody else will hire you soon enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be a bit of confusion about that. According to the deal, they have a no compete, which might just mean they are not allowed to start their own sportsbook, not that they can't have other sportsbooks advertise with them. I would imagine that it makes up the majority of the advertising revenue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 The only reason I'll stick up for it is they have out of local network NHL games, so that (via Hulu) is how I watch the majority of my Panthers games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it's that I past for ESPN+ but as soon as I try to use it, it asks me to sign up, then I make sure I'm signed in and I always am, then I go try to read the article and it asks me to sign up again. I don't watch as much MMA as I used to, so I don't use the app that often. If it wasn't last of a bundle, I'd just cancel the shit at this point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 2 hours ago, Dolfan in NYC said: Sage Steele is leaving ESPN after 16 years. Reminder - she had been suing ESPN (and Disney) claiming they had violated her first amendment rights They settled that lawsuit and Steele said she decided to leave so "I can exercise my first amendment rights more freely" So I am assuming that means she will be joining Outkick soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 So Charter Spectrum, the second largest cable provider in the country, and Disney are in a carriage fee pissing contest that led to all Disney owned channels going dark just about the time Utah and Florida kicked off last night. With no ESPN just in time for football season to start, I can't see this going well for the poor people who answer the phones for Spectrum.
