I don't watch ESPN much anymore but I tuned in this morning

[Enfuego]

What did I see? They didn't have the normal Top 10 plays for the night, they had a women's Top 10 plays of the night.

A fucking women's top 10. Do you realize how boring it was to watch a SS jump 3 inches in the air to snag a line drive and to have Lindsey what's her name have to sound excited like it was a great play?

These guys are going to go bankrupt at some point in our lifetime.

Lol product will just keep getting worse. After hearing that dumbass kristen leahy or whatever at the Herd complain about how Big Baller Brand doesn't have women apparel. Stupidest shit I've ever heard. There are many clothing lines that strictly cater to men and there are many clothing lines and brands that strictly cater to women. I didn't get why any woman or man would knock somebody's product because it doesn't cater to them. She said if he wants to be successful there needs to be women's clothing at his brand.

Lahey was pretty disrespectful to Lavar. Questioned his parenting and mocking his brand

let's see them put together a top 10 straight women's plays of the night during wnba season

When more than 50% of your audience are women, catering to only men his s horrendous business model. Not to
mention most women shop for men and kids. LaVarr is a goddamn idiot.

That chick did a good job playing the victim card ("are you threatening me?") but Lavar wasn't having it.

Like LAvar said, there's a reason they put you off in the corner.

i can only watch espn a few mins at the time

ESPN let a lotta people go. Trent Dilfer, not sure why he was ever a factor anyway.

 

[Mr_Mark]

Yea ESPN is going down in flames.... hopefully they turn it around. I feel like whoever is in charge over there knows nothing about sports or what fans want. I remember when that channel was on all day on my TV. Now I can barely watch a few minutes of it.

 

[Coldweather]

​I do not like ESPN at all!

I don't see how 2 or 3 women are going to be able to come up with that many good plays.

Who's audience is 50% women? Lavar Balls audience? Even if they did have a womens shoe or womens clothing what woman would want to wear "Big Baller Brand" ? The point is, it is not suppose to cater to women. Just like how Victoria Secret is not suppose to cater to men. When all the women were spending big money on gucci, the men were like we got big money we want to spend. And Gucci made gear for men. It's the demand and Lavar knows damn well that there is no demand for his brand from women. Why even try to expand that direction when you know it's not at that point yet. Expanding too early is how you lose peoples attention. Lavar Ball is a genius imo, but I can see how people and why people hate him. It is easy to mix up his intentions but if you hear him talk most of what he has to say is legit. Besides the jordan crap.

Public will end up loving lavar ball eventually, watch. Tables will turn. Public perception will switch

Stephen A. Smith's mom died today. How frigging tragic.

 

[CarolinaKid]

i spend less than 10 min a day watching espn

 

[CoachCB]

ESPN is good for one thing, watching live games. Period.

 

[Willie99]

It saddens me to see everybody turning on them, just as I am

ESPN is a really big employer in our community, they bring tons of celebrities to town, they buy houses and eat at local restaurants

As much as I hate their modern day programming, they're important to the local economy and a bunch of their off air employees are clients of mine (mostly IT), so I want them to succeed

 

[rolltide]

looking forward to the Keith Olbermann / Kathy Griffin tandem for SC10 ...

Why are you so clueless always about everything?

The U.S. population is roughly 51% women. You honestly think it's a good marketing strategy to alienate 51% of the population? Not only do you want women to buy your brand for women but you want them to but it for their husbands, kids, family members etc.

Why the fuck would you cut out 51% of your potential buyers? Does Nike, Under Armour, Adidas all do that? Fuck no they don't.

Victoria Secret doesn't cater to men? You mean, they don't cater to men with their men's cologne and campaigns aimed at getting men into their store to buy for their women? Seriously?

LaVar Ball is a genius? Now you've really lost me.

I have a feeling 75% of this forum knows more about this topic than you after reading what you just posted.

I've never quite figured out who the commercials for men's perfume are catering to.
