  1. Or Muller could put on his big boy pants now that he is a private citizen and answer some fucking questions.
  2. If by nothingburger you mean no new info, yet cable news will spin this a million different ways to continue to beat their own drum then yes. It's a nothingburger. "I interpret what he said was...................." "What I think he meant by saying this was.............................." "He said it in this way because..........................." It is never going to end.
  3. "Read it again bitch, I am out for a 12:07 tee time"
  4. Enjoy- Warning- No bleeping so beware
  5. On the couch with my two boys (maybe mom too).
  6. Big fan of Chicago's ABC 7 Cheryl Scott-
  7. No matter what he says this thread is going to deliver!
  8. This. A good friend of mine went a few years ago just to the base camp. And they had to leave behind several in their group for mostly for altitude issues along the way just to get to the base camp.
  9. Agreed, just listened over the weekend. Just a conversation and neither of them were "on". It was great.
  10. I am their dream customer. I am just too lazy to switch right now because I would have to teach my kids and wife (mostly) how to watch TV.
  11. If I have a daughter at that school I wouldn't be too happy right about now.
  12. The whole ESPN+ thing is interesting. They continue to put more game content on their to get people to pay $4.99 a month for it yet they are losing money with only 2 Million subscribers. The company said that its direct-to-consumer and international segment lost $136 million in the quarter on revenue of $918 million. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/05/disney-says-espn-has-2-million-paid-subscribers-but-is-losing-money.html It will be interesting to see how things play out. As a sports fan (obviously) I would have probably watched the EPL playoff over the weekend between Derby County and Aston Villa but didn't because it was on ESPN+. I know most on here are sports fans but there are a shit ton of people that never watch ESPN and plenty of sports fans that won't pay for secondary league or sports games.
  13. Psst- MSNBC and CNN have old people watching their shows as well. All three of the cable networks average prime time shows have a third of their audience coming from those 25-54. And just and FYI the other 2/3 isn't coming from the 24 and under demo. It's all trash for old people. ALL OF IT.
  14. And 20 million people watched a paid subscription channel last Sunday night. It's about content. Regardless of source if you make good whatever, people will consume it. That's where ESPN fucked themselves. Their content outside of live games has been shit for years. They like cable companies assumed incorrectly that people would always pay to have access to their channels for the live sporting events alone. Politics wasn't their downfall and neither was cable cutters, it was shitty content outside of access to their live game rights.
  15. 100%. It's all a competition. If you want to really blow their minds the next time they need a classroom volunteer you should go. That would be the cherry on top to the other moms. "Not only does she buy super expensive cookies her husband even helps........." The other moms would be falling all over you on top of hating your wife. It would be perfect.
  16. Classic. One thing I don't miss from the Jackie years is all the fucking clapping they use to do for every little thing.
  17. 100% this. When I was in college we used to watch headline news at: 08,18,28,38,48, and 58 because that was the only way you could find out what the scores were on games going on out of our area that we had bet on. I agree the 90's ESPN model is dead and would never work but that really isn't their problem. Their problem is aside from their live coverage and a few pregame shows their other programming has been AWFUL the last 20 years. They did have a monopoly and they fucked it up by putting out shitty programming back when they had all the viewers in the world to take advantage of.
  18. Best comedy on network TV in the last 10 years. Yeah I said it.
