| Has ESPN disabled the ability to comment on articles? I used to be able to comment on articles on my favorite teams but for the last few days the "comment" button at the bottom of the articles have not been there. Is it across the board or are they picking and choosing who can comment? The comments go thru Facebook and I have had a few comments deleted by the "powers that be" because I don't march lockstep with their political views, but I've never seen the comment button deleted before. |

Well, there you go .. Change your views and perhaps your "privileges" will be restored (after a probationary period, of course) ..

Does anyone really watch ESPN anymore? I swear an hour show on ESPN is 30 minutes of content and 30 minutes of commercials. It's horrible.
The only way I'll watch anything on ESPN is to record it so I can fast forward thru the mountains of commercials...

I record/watch PTI, but that is about it. I pretty much am only into NBA & NFL, don't really care about the Blah Blah shows that talk about what might happen....
Go Celtics !!

Ummmm, no. Ironic that I just saw an report on the news this morning that Facebook is still "filtering" what they allow people to post, even after that charade that Zuckerburg had before congress claiming they would be more tolerant of opposing points of view. |

FUCK ESPN and their loudMOUF antic-driven blowhards.
That's right you read that right.
The unbridled bias they showed Oregon State during the College World Series is enough to make me never watch any of the fools on that joke of a channel ever again. Unfortunately they also own the SEC Network so I can't escape.
FUCK them.

Thanks. You're absolutely correct! There's a reason that Netflix and Amazon programing is so popular. No commercials.
