Message: [QUOTE="cuse10, post: 2173017, member: 5920"] Yet, you not watching ESPN had nothing to do with the firings like many of you like to believe. If you have cable/satellite, you're paying for it. Politics had nothing to do with what's going on in Bristol. This was a bandage on a bullet wound. They haven't adapted to the new media model. HBO had the foresight and created HBOGO. People who cut the cord are still paying a subscription fee to see premium content. The problem is worsened by the fact accountants are making all of the decisions in Bristol. They fired people who create content worth going to their properties for. Some of these guys can't be replaced. It is a bloodbath in that sense regardless of it being 100 or 1,000. ESPN does not have the talent to fill the gaps of those leaving and those that have already departed. The brand is in trouble. [/QUOTE]
