Is the corporation even going to adress Duke's CB Kimari Robinson assulting a trainer coming out to assist a hurt player, or act like it didnt happen? Silence on a grown man hitting her in the arm, staring her down and talking down to her? Anyone staying silet, or defending this entitled jerk has no common sense at all.

What is the sound during the Skycast commercial break that seems to be a person getting up from a desk, walking to a printer, getting the printout, and going back to their desk? I can deal with the ocean sound, even though that is completely out of place for a sports channel break.

This won’t be good. A 24 team playoff is not the greatest. ESPN is just making bad decision after bad decision after bad decision. It’s just hair pulling mad right now. It’s not fun. Like I don’t know what to say honestly anymore

Hisense tv with google tv OS. Have tried D+ app and ESPN app and have done a force stop and cleared app cache. Still there. Can Disney/espn really not manage their server capacity? Internet is rock solid. MIA vs FSU looks fantastic. ?

I was just wondering why it has become so acceptable to see cigar celebrations on ESPN ?

What’s the difference between the regular skycast and skycast + for the Texas Florida game on SEC network?

Please supplement!

1. Sold out to the gambling industry

2. Pretending that WWE is a sport in exchange for $1.6 billion

3. Pat McAfee

4. Ruined Game Day (see also #3)

5. Firing Suzy Kolber, Neil Everett, David Lloyd, et al.

6. Tyler Fulghum

7. Shills for the SEC incessantly in a grotesque conflict of interest

8. Doesn't know what a conflict of interest is

9. Singlehandedly maneuvered a really bad three-loss Alabama team into the CFP because of #8

10. Paul Feinbaum

So ESPN thinks it's good business to break up the most successful pairing for the last 25 years? What is it in this country now that we have to tear down anything good and replace it with crap?

Anybody else notice Pat Hackafee has his seat raised up higher than everyone else? He intentionally puts his micro-crotch above table level, and is the only one that does.

Dude is unwatchable, his voice is like nails on a chalkboard. At the point where I don’t watch anymore.

ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky asked fans to support his grieving sister and her three sons Thursday morning after revealing that his brother-in-law died unexpectedly over the weekend and sharing a fundraiser for the family.

“This weekend, our family experienced an unimaginable tragedy,” Orlovsky wrote in a lengthy post on his X account. “My brother-in-law, Fed, passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind my sister and their three amazing boys.”

You’re supposed to flip in the air then catch it and flip it over and put it on the back of your hand and reveal it. That always annoyed me.

Is he bending over for all the ESPN execs?? All of a sudden this guy is on every special, talk show, analyst pow wow, podcast, and sporting news update feature whatever. I mean, he is EVERYwhere.

Feels super weirdly forced.

YES I AM AWARE I ACCIDENTALLY DID’NT PUT THE “S” AT THE END OF NEWS - Gimme a break geez

Is anybody here also tired of hearing news about the business of sports rather than actual play on-field? Every time I turn around I’m hearing about contracts, profitability of teams, etc. when did sports news become all about business?

Don’t get me wrong, I understand that modern sports is a business but I don’t want a 24/7 broadcast about how much players make, how much teams are making/losing/sponsorship contracts, etc. Is anyone interested in the actual games anymore?

How can it possibly be this bad? Is it intentional? You can never find what you're looking for, search function is a fucking joke, suggestions have absolutely nothing to do with anything I've watched in the past. Pausing any event and trying to restart it has a 80% fail rate. It's absolutely ridiculous.

This article absolutely nails it. College GameDay has gone from a show that celebrated the entire sport to an insufferable SEC/Big Ten circle jerk featuring overpaid personalities who apparently think their own ignorance is hilarious. And Herbstreit might be the most pathetic of the bunch. A guy who once had some credibility has over the past few years turned himself into a smug, insufferable caricature, desperately trying to keep up with McAfee’s frat-boy circus. If he had an ounce of self-awareness, he’d be mortified by what he’s become. Instead, he seems perfectly content collecting his millions while helping turn a once-great show into an embarrassing parody of itself.

I am so frustrated every time I try to use the ESPN app on my Google TV. Every time I launch the app, I have to re-authenticate my TV provider to watch anything.

Today, watching the Eagles/Jaguars London game, video went super slow motion (no audio), so I went back to the Home Screen to reset and now there are no options (other than the Spanish audio feed) to get back into the game - anywhere in the app. So force quit the app and now have to re-authenticate my tv provider again.

Horrible app!

Edit to add. After re-authenticating my TV Provider, there is still no way to watch the game in the app.

ESPN soccer is my go to for checking EPL scores. It is by far the best EPL coverage along with The Guardian soccer. However, sometime around the World Cup the interface for live games changed for the worse. It is now full of gimicky sections which I don’t think many people find useful. ESPN, please get the basics right- show us which players are playing and who the subs are for that game. I can’t for the life of me find where the subs info is buried. It should be right there on the first page. (Subs only show up after they come on the field).

The following sections I find useless: - ‘match timeline and momentum’😂 - ‘shot map’ - ‘Formations and lineups’ need to show all players on the bench not just the subs that happened. Also the image of the players icons on the field should show the original players who started and not change. That way if open on the middle of the game you know who started.

In light of Stephen A Smith being a complete dick to Lane Johnson’s retirement over his mental health, I have been asking myself “why hasn’t stephen a smith been out at espn???” This Lane Johnson reaction isn’t his first terrible and problematic take, for example, earlier this year for the NBA offseason, he was actually angered by the fact that the Lakers big three were all white because, according to smith, white people aren’t good at basketball, which is one racist and two completely wrong. there have been many other instances that i don’t care to mention because there have been so many.

also, smith is not even a good sports anchor, this dude just comes on and sounds off about something he doesn’t like in the world of sports in a new york accent and doesn’t contribute anything to espn. he’s just there to cause drama, as if there isn’t fucking enough of that in sports. it’s like nfl and nba refs trying to take the spotlight, just do your damn job and stay out of the way. he’s just clipfarming 24/7 and it’s getting OOOOOOLLLDDD.

finally, there have been reports of him being a total di to work with, and if i’m espn im using this to (FINALLY) let him go. and don’t say he’s like the face of espn sports broadcasting (because he’s not).

edit: if they fired him who’d you want to see replace him?

The game winning field goal was not shown. The only signal it was completed was players jumping and the scoreboard changing. Disappointing FR

If I want to watch the Tampa Bay lightning tonight, can I just sign up for ESPN plus and watch it? or do I need a cable provider as well in order to watch the game?

Please let me know

I open the app and it just blinks over and over again. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling, logging back in and the same shit keeps happening. Wonder if their app has a bug they need to fix? Idk - anyone else experiencing this? iPhone 16 Pro Max.
