While I’m sympathetic to anyone who hates ESPN and/or holds certain anxieties about transparent attempts to shoehorn unqualified women into traditionally male roles in sports broadcasting, I find Mina Kimes to be a delightful, informed and—at times—compelling voice. Considering the array of utterly talentless, self-promoting, trash on-air “talent” ESPN has tried to foist into marquee roles at their godforsaken network over the years, Kimes is a breath of fresh air who doesn’t take herself or the subject matter too seriously. Also note that she wasn’t hired to appeal to us 40+ year old bittermen. She’s the perfect hire for the millennial set who consumes all their content digitally, and for thirty seconds at a time.

win4ever Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I'm all for railing on people because they made it somewhere undeservedly, but she's not one of them. She actually does make decent arguments at times, so I don't mind her at all. Is she the prettiest? No. But if I want to look at pretty, there are other avenues I can choose than ESPN. Give me Kimes over say Erin Andrews asking stupid questions or Jessica Mendoza working out my mute button. The problem with ESPN is that, they have an agenda, which is to slant towards ratings. They don't care about sports because they aren't the option for sports anymore. In the heyday of ESPN, you waited to catch a glimpse of your team on Sportscenter, and when Scott, Patrick, or others talked about your team, it mattered just because of the subject. You had to sit through a bunch of scores at the bottom to see your team's snippet. That era is over, and with it the informational attraction of a news broadcast. It's all about creating news and controversies now, because that's what drives people to watch. Did you just hear what Stephen A said? Did you see that idiot predict the Jets at 3-13? That's what drives traffic anywhere now, and this forum isn't immune to it either. ESPN is no longer ESPN but they are a giant corporation that knows what tactics butter their bread, and they will stick to it. I didn't even know Charley Casserly was alive until he started giving stupid takes, and now people tune in to watch him fumble around on TV. Then they make fun of him on boards and twitter like he's sitting there at home crying as he reads the comments. He wants those people to make fun of him because that gets him clicks and views, which keep him relevant. Stephen A Smith makes around 10 million a year, and I don't know one person that thinks he's actually a good reporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look like Matthew Modine if he was ~40 years old and did CrossFit five days a week. I lack curb appeal. If Mina Kimes pushed up on me in a bar and I ever got to the point where she allowed me to, say, touch her breast without blowing a rape whistle, it’d be a banner f*ckin’ day in the Shane household.

Talk about opening Pandora's box. First of all, this is a family site and I don't want to hear about Pop Rocks, goats and hockey sticks. Secondly, if you really want to know, you don't ask like that.
