Yep...that's just the way things are, now. Traditional media is DOA...and, the Twitter-Sphere crowd has taken over.
Meaning...they value gossip, more than they do facts...follow "narratives", rather than, "Truth"...and, report only the pieces that fit.
It's "over" for Bama. At least, for this year. Too many things to fix and not enough time or players, to fix em.
I like Bally Sports, BTW. I think, they might wind up taking over all of it, before it's all said and done. Traditional cable, is being replaced with much more amenable "streaming" options...IMO. This latest battle, might be enough to push it over the edge.
I think ESPN may be behind the power curve on the streaming market. I could be wrong...but, Disney is trying to dismantle some of their "side-businesses", right now.
Oh man Yes !! Worse thing in the world for ESPN is that Disney is the parent company. Disney has forgotten ( maybe on purpose) that they are Supposed to be an entertainment business. Instead they view themselves as Crusaders for their social agendas. News flash for them, the majority of people don’t give a rats azz about their social agendas !! That’s the majority now, there’s a fringe minority that does embrace their social agenda, and that minority is gonna drive Disney into bankruptcy if their not careful. Their social agenda has bled heavily over into sports with ESPN and most people just don’t care to see it. The idiots fail to realize that Sports is an escape for most people from the daily pressures of life in the good ole USA. People use Sports to relax and unwind and have Something to cheer about when all The News has is doom and gloom. So when they rob the average person of that Relaxation Time with their idiotic social agenda crap it drives people away Not attracts them !!
I'm starting to think...maybe...UGA should consider dropping out of a Conference, and trying the old Notre Dame thang.
Could you imagine how much money ND and their players could rake in, in TV and NIL Contracts....if they had UGA's Team, Logo & Coaching Staff [Program]?. Now...put UGA in the "independent" category...with a carefully crafted, quality schedule, facing the "perceived" best team, in each Conference, every Season...like the IMG's of HS.. $$$
Lol...hell, they could start the UGA/ND Independent Network. Hire UGA & ND people to put together their own polls, Awards and Contracts. Talk about dynasty! With all this realigning goin' on....maybe they attract a few teams with solid Programs and pedigrees, like [[Bama, LSU, AUB, OSU, FSU, USC, Mich, Penn St.]] to join em in a coalition of Independent teams. If a few 5 Star teams broke away from their Conferences and scheduled each other during the season...the Networks would not be able to ignore em.
If it doesn't work out...they would have their "pick" of Conferences, to get back in "that" game.. Yeah....probably the SEC. Or, create a whole new Conference. Let the innovation begin. Lol
HA !! Not bad ideas !! Would drive ESPN fruitloops !!! 😂
