>>150565493Painful to watch anyways. It's for bet junkies who need to keep up on every game. I like watching one game start to finish
Friendly reminder that any criticism of this will be flagged for antisemitism.
I fucking hate espn
Going to give it a try but I am afraid this is where I tap out o7
>>150565493The next time someone tells me, "Things weren't better back then, you're just a nostalgiafag", I'll simply refer to this.
I can't wait for Disney to go bankrupt.
>>15056549316 HOURS OF COMMERCIALS AND 1 MINUTE OF FOOTBALL!!!!!!
>>150567417Facts. Anti-nostalgia posters act like everything in every field just infinitely and linearly progresses upwards. What causes this naive shit? Is it being born in a certain period of time where things we on the up? Is it the desperate need to feel like you are in the "golden age"?
fortunately, Red Zone is for stimmer gambling addict sickos anyways, but I hope espn loses money over this and Scott eats a bowl of once-flushed crap from the toilet after it rebounds back to his porcelain trough in the men's room
>>150567909It's mostly just contrarian culture.
>>150567851just like watching a real game!
>>150565493>ESPN corrupts something pureA tale as old as time
>the thing I consume for zero dollars got marginally worseeh. if I was a boomer paying for it on my cable I'd be pissed off though
>>150565493This is the worst timeline were living in right now.
>>150567958>Red Zone is for stimmer gambling addict sickos anywaysit's was also for people who didn't want to sit through commercials every five minutes
>RedZone>with ads
>>150567958I'd watch a commercial free game from start to finish if I could nigger. Death to the mouse.
>>150565493Why do americans love filling their sports with ad breaks so much?
>>150568211Just give me a live feed of the game at all times. No announcers, no commercials, I'll even pay up for it.
>>150568416They make way more selling ads than they ever could selling you the broadcast
>>150565493Called this the second Disney bought itFirst introduce commercials, Hanson toughs it out year 1 but then retires because of how much worse than environment is, then McAfee and his redneckery takes over
it's only useful for the early games so the whole 7 hour thing doesn't really mean anything
>>150565493every decision you will see ESPN make regarding NFL broadcasting stems from >live sports being the last form of mass audience capture for advertisers in an uber fragmented media landscape>gambling becoming the leading uses of disposable income for men age 18-39>investors who are tired of the biggest IP holder in the world having a shit stock price compared to netflixno amount of bitching curbs any of the three points above
Kek I used to sell this shit to american boomers with Cox back in the day. It was pretty cheap iirc so I am willing to bet most people would take a price increase over having to watch ads wich kind of defeats the whole point.
>>150569574>>then McAfee and his redneckery takes overMore like another Malika clone.
Nhl and mls dont have commercials.all the time.
>>150567909By saying something was better back in the day all they hear is when it was more White and women were less important. So if they agree they’re racists. You may scoff but these are facts.
>>150568416Will never exist as long as the NFL makes so much damn money from US TV contracts (currently over 12 billion dollars per season).If it existed, it would be ridiculously overpriced to not be a threat to the ad-supported revenue, like 500 bucks per season o algo.
Next we replace Scott Hansen with a mystery meat woman who is also gay and lame
>>150571564medsback in the day could be 20 years ago (2005) and I challenge anyone to explain what's better now compared to then
>>150575468Availability of free Porn
Casuals on suicide watch
>>150575415Scott Hansen is gay and lame
>>150568425>>150574782Neither of you are wrong. It's just what I want.
>>150575415Scott Hansen is fucking trash and Redzone has been a bad product for years because of how bad he is. That doesn't mean this is good and any replacement of him will be worse, but don't act like he was a fucking net positive.
>>150576793>>150576810
>>150565844This was an NFL decision. Espn doesn't get control until next season
>>150576925shut up, Iger
>>150576925Yes and they expertly framed it so people would get mad at Disney, and if it goes sideways enough they can set everything back to normal and get big free publicity about how they're saving football or some shit.
>he was right then>he's right nowredzone btfo
Is the audio from the ad? If not it's probably not that hard to make a plugin which just re-crops the video to the actual game and removes the ad.
>>150579211They're going to be full screen ads as in 0% of the screen will have football on it.
>>150579211Have you ever watched a movie at home on basic cable/ a streaming service with ad breaks, and the adverisements completely thwart you out of the setting that the movie builds around you?It’s like the sports version of that.
>>150579491>>150579416are you sure that's how it will be and not like nascar ads where they just show it with no audio on the side?
>>150579593if anything, it could be one of those situations where the game takes up 20% of the screen, the ad box takes up the other 80% of the screen and they play audio from the ad - which is just as fullscreen advertisements for me since I don’t have peregrine falcon vision
>>150579211>>150579593It is going to be NASCAR style with ads on the side, the audio will be the ad.
>>150569852I wish I could do something to help stop 2-3 generations of men becoming degenerate gamblers? It's infuriating.
>Pay for service that doesnt have ads>Service now includes adsDo they expect people to still pay for it?
>>150581528They still provide the utility of switching between games for you whilst providing insight.
>>150581614>whilst providing insight.kek
>>150571564Damn truth.
>>150576810I miss that weird time when there was two Redzones and there was another guy hosting the other one he was better
>>150579593If you watch Scott Hanson's interview with McAffee he made sure to include that no touchdowns will be missed and the only takeaway I had from that is football won't be on the screen.
