ABC -> Disney -> ESPN will continue to push rot. Like I posted about before, they are not going to reverse course. They will run this vehicle into a ditch and just layoff anyone making 250K+ and hire younger and cheaper.

Eventually, Disney will just sell it on a firesale when it is a complete dumpster fire.

Then they will buy something on the come up, like BleacherReport possibly, and repeat the same cycle again and again.

Marvel Comics is already beginning the journey. Some years for now, they will be on the chopping block or firesale.

I saw an article on the Chicago Times I think, where they said, the real test of ESPN's health will be when the Monday Night Football contract has to be renewed and the new MLB games contracts they have to play several games.

Me personally I think the NFL, the NBA, and MLB are going to push their own platforms alot more. I'm not convinced they want others with exclusive games or to spread it out on the big 3 networks. Aside from Fox and CBS, the others are losing money like crazy anyway.

Can ESPN afford to pay the NFL 2+ billion for a new Monday Night Football contract? I doubt it.
