I don't have cable anymore, way to many stupid or repeat shows including ESPN. I am just chomping at the bit for the day I can tune into whatever Moto app that has the full day of racing, practice, and everything in HD quality streaming into my smart tv live. Why are the motos in Allied sports such crappy quality? I can't even watch them.

The 30 for 30 series is solid, but that's it. It seems to me TV is targeted primarily at women and children these days. Millions of US Magazine subscribers will tune in to watch Kim Kardashian's former step-father tuck it under to accept an award for courage as a woman.

I've watched numerous motos through the online system in full HD flawlessly from my NBC sports live app on my iPad to my Apple TV. You should run a speed test because it sounds like your ISP is throttling your speed.

I'm glad to hear they're losing. They lost me when I moved 4 months ago....I've had cable since I moved out in 1999...never again until they start allowing choice in the channels I WANT to watch, subscriber driven, not an al a cart smorgasbord of crap I'm never going to tune to. Let BET, Bravo, and countless other channels survive on their own in the free market without people that would never watch subsidizing them...might happen but my guess in no. I decided I'm Not going to pay outrageous amounts for 10 channels I watch and 100's of channels I don't watch, and I'm though subsidizing agendas I don't believe in. There's an amazing world going on out there I've discovered, was one of the best choices I ever made.

I only watch ESPN for Canadian football ( it's a good league) and Mike and Mike in the morning.

Oh, the sports version of liberal propaganda that awards Bruce Jenner and Michael Sam for "bravery" is not doing well? The one that uses the medical struggles of their staff for publicity continuously?

Fuck that fucking channel.

Man the times they are a changing. McDonalad's closing locations and now a sports leader like ESPN is going though some pain Cable companies now provide more Internet connections than they do TV connections. People who aren't cutting the cable are at least trimming their bills as this article speaks to.

ESPN....the home of Art Eckman David Bailey and DC. Remember when Davey would take a lap and narrate while riding. That was cool.
That was badass
Davey rocked with that shit

ESPN is a Disney Company & you can't blame them for not having moto... More people tune in for pool,
the national spelling bee, high stakes poker, badminton & probably underwater basketweaving then moto...

Any guy who is not working & not Watching Monday Night Football wears dresses and are one of "those guys"
they are happy about the recent "gay marriage" ruling by the Supreme Court, the game is on ESPN too...
