Today ESPN was advertising their spot on the Espys. Of course its their own award ceremony.
It had your usual build up on who are the nominees and such. I kept watching when suddenly they began talking about gun violence and how out of control it has gotten. I was confused as that was not sports nor sports related. It showed a clip of NBA stars standing on stage and opening the Espys talking about gun violence. I thought I was watching CNN
Then what threw it all out the window was that ESPN is to show the President of the United States talking about race relations. What the hell is this? Is this not the Sports Network? Why am I watching some political message on my SPORTS NETWORK.
This all began when ESPN began to fire some of their long time commentators, announcers, and analyzers over some comments they made either on a social network or in a interview. Then it seems whenever some political happening starts, ESPN seems to add a segment on it!
ESPN is a lost cause at this point. I shall not be watching them anymore. I watch sports to escape from all this super charged politics and just enjoy a sport! I dont need some NBA commentator telling me what they thing is right and what I think is wrong.
Screw you ESPN. Im done.
