Somehow someway you'd think context would matter. Guess not.

Sort of like how you and others here routinely "cherry pick" the first day of the NFL draft and extrapolate as if it's not an outlier?

Reruns of roller derby would out draw the 3rd day of the draft.

"Actually, on average, the NBA finals do get more viewers than the NFL draft" is one of the biggest examples of winning a battle that loses the war I've ever seen on here.

Nah NFL Draft rating avg comp is actually 2nd Round of the NBA,playoffs.


NBA Finals ratings are in another stratosphere from that

It's not that you're too stupid to realize I'm actually comparing things head to head, like logical, reasonable people do. It's that you realized you lost that battle and want to whine like a petulant little bitch.

Kindly go fuck yourself, you miserable prick.

Why do you give a shit? The NBA is healthy and it's popular with you. I don't pay much attention to the NFL for my own reasons but I don't let my bias cloud my judgement on what's the most popular. Mostly because I couldn't care less.

I actually wonder why the "No One Cares About The NBA" crowd gives a shit?

Have you really cased the joint all that much? They spent the better part of 2-3 years bashing the hell out of the Score for daring to talk basketball.

You know what the common retort happened to be invariably? "No One (ostensibly the small subset of people on here) Gives a Shit about the NBA so why are they discussing it all the time.

It was simply time to counter and debunk that rather dumbass argument once and for all.

_________________

Your comparison is only related to one night dumbass.

You cherry pick one night of the draft and use it to further a dumbass argument promoted by other dopes like you.

I actually am a White Sox fan and have heard that for the past 3 decades at least. Even called Les's show about it once back in the day.

However the guys usually making that argument are baseball fans that happen to be Cubs fans. Whole Cubs/Sox bullshit argument.

Somehow and Someway "No one giving a shit about baseball" is ever uttered even though it's clearly the 3rd most popular sport in this country currently.

So, you going to post a poll on what sports that the alt-right likes?

Which sport is that?

I dunno. But Somehow and Someway no one giving a shit about baseball is ever uttered.
Perhaps you'd expound on that.

Nah I just take it as people who generally like baseball happening to promote it and not speak ill of it.

i just spent a few minutes reading rereading the argument. surely i had missed something. i even drew it up on the whiteboard in my office.

league 1 championship to determine best team of the year viewers > league 2 picking college players they think are good to hopefully make them good team viewers

therefore

league 1 > league 2

SportsCenter has been on for 30 minutes. It has been 28 minutes of Tom Brady talk, at about 2 minutes of the Yankees minor Leaguer who tested positive for the virus. Not one second dedicated to the NBA.

_________________

Notice how quickly the NFL draft talk subsided once actual numbers were provided? I know I do.

Oh yeah and reading is a skill

_________________

3 Nets players actually have the virus, not one mention on SportsCenter yet. Just on the scroll on the bottom of the screen.

Well no one really cares about the nba during NFL free agency and draft time, Frank. Everyone knows that. Cmon.

Make it 4:

What are the odds that this gets mentioned on SportsCenter?

It is noteworthy that it took 5 days before people here even felt comfortable holding this discussion.

Good timing, SC just announced Woj will be on after the commercials to talk about Durant's C19 diagnosis.

56 minutes, and we get an NBA mention....and then they go to break

_________________

Funny I just turned on SportsCenter and they immediately broke away from NFL coverage to discuss the 4 Nets players that tested positive for the coronavirus.

Woj coming on now.

_________________

Woj also called it that Brady wasn't returning to the Patriots on his most recent podcast, on yesterday's Woj pod. He was taking listener questions, from social media, I think. Someone asked where he thought Brady would land. Woj said he didn't know where Brady'd end up but he wouldn't be back with the Patriots. http://www.espn.com/espnradio/podcast/a ... d/26974840

See what happens when you depend on Fraternization Frank for your information?

Lead story on the 5:00 Sportscenter is Kevin Durant contracting CoronaVirus
