ESPN took the show off the air about 10 years ago. TSN had a similar round table format show called The Reporters which also was canceled about 10 years ago.
McAfee and Smith is what people are drawn too these days? See, I didn’t even know who McAffe was not too long ago. No ESPN or FS 1 for me. Love it
30 for 30 is the single best thing Bill Simmons has done in his entire career.Sports Reporters was a great show, I was sorry to see it get cancelled.
I don't watch ESPN or Fox Sports unless there's a game/event I want to watch. Sports reporting/discussion has gone completely downhill although I did enjoy ESPN's 30 for 30 series & sometimes their E:60 program covers something/someone interesting. Otherwise it just a bunch of people yelling at each other, like on sports radio.
My boss interviewed by Lobel and Lynch
It is noteworthy as they had the guts to ask him about his brother and Michael Jackson.
Chuck Sullivan thought he could outsmart Don King on a cash deal
The best part of the whole story is how the city of Foxboro denied Sullivan's application for a Jacksons concert at Foxboro Stadium so the tour didn't even come to New EnglandVictory Tour (The Jacksons) - Wikipedia

The New York Times to Disband Its Sports Department (Published 2023)
Coverage of games, players and leagues will now come primarily from The Athletic, the sports website that the company bought last year.www.nytimes.com
The New York Times said on Monday that it would disband its sports department and rely on coverage of teams and games from its website The Athletic, both online and in print.
Joe Kahn, The Times’s executive editor, and Monica Drake, a deputy managing editor, announced the change to the newsroom as “an evolution in how we cover sports.”
“We plan to focus even more directly on distinctive, high-impact news and enterprise journalism about how sports intersect with money, power, culture, politics and society at large,” the editors wrote in an email to The Times’s newsroom on Monday morning. “At the same time, we will scale back the newsroom’s coverage of games, players, teams and leagues.”
The shuttering of the sports desk, which has more than 35 journalists and editors, is a major shift for The Times. The department’s coverage of games, athletes and team owners, and its Sports of the Times column in particular, were once a pillar of American sports journalism. The section covered the major moments and personalities of the last century of American sports, including Muhammad Ali, the birth of free agency, George Steinbrenner, the Williams sisters, Tiger Woods, steroids in baseball and the deadly effects of concussions in the National Football League.
Los Angeles Times drops printed sports gamers, box scores and standings in shift to 'daily sports magazine'
Big changes are coming to the printed sports section of the Los Angeles Times, which is going away from game stories and box scores.
If your definition of “beating the shit out of someone” is a sport? Then yes.
It's luster has definitely faded but there are a lot of really good fighters to watch, if you like the sport. I grew up watching it all because my dad was a huge boxing guy, so I still pay attention to it. And Max is a clown with very little to offer other than dumb ass hot takes that get shown to be erroneous.
