I have loved following sports since I was a little kid. I guess it all started when my dad took me to my very first Tennessee Volunteers football game. We had season tickets and I was immediately hooked. Back when I was just a kid I would say I first turned to ESPN for their exciting highlights and coverage of all the big games. The way their shows were put together, the main show being ‘Sports Center,’ made even the most novice fan be able to get excited because they were showing the best plays of the game while also letting you know the outcomes.
Sadly, the simple days of ESPN have all but vanished due to their new agenda of forcing left-wing politics down the throats of everyday sports fans who are just looking for a carefree escape from their busy lives. A crystal-clear example would be ESPN’s new show dubbed “WokeCenter” which has a tagline specifically aimed towards mixing sports with left-wing politics. However, with ESPN’s demise, there are all sorts of new informative ways to receive your everyday sports information.
From apps like Bleacher Report, to radio shows, free podcasts and channels such as Facebook Live and Periscope, and even the individual media coverage strictly focused on your favorite sports league or favorite teams. We are now in the age where instead of so-called “sports journalists” such as Jemele Hill who has openly tweeted things such as, “Donald Trump is a white supremacist,” we now have people such as journalist Clay Travis who call out these so-called “sports journalists” by giving his audience real statistics and data.
Although the simplicity of following sports through one individual source has been ruined, thankfully there are now endless of new, more convenient, ways to collect your sports journalism and analysis.
