Classy Act: I Will Miss the Banter with Utah Fans...
jrw replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I always root for the Utes in any game except against Oregon. Totally a class act, they are. -
Rasheed Wallace had the perfect answer, no matter what question he was asked: "Both teams played hard".

Our comments here perfectly illustrate why the media/industrial complex is in a dither: we have 23 comments, about 24 different opinions on the future of broadcasting, and at least as many different personal viewing habits and preferences. What's a media mogul to do? And, all the other players involved?

Well, the major streaming players - HBO, DIsney, Peacock, Hulu, - are losing money hand over fist, so I wouldn't bet against linear tv just yet. Amazon and Apple are different, because they can lose tens of millions a year (sofa cushion money) for on streaming sports if they think it will pay off in the future. The entire media/entertainment business is in crisis, as pretty much everybody is losing money and has no idea what to do about it. Who knows how things will shake out. But, as long as live sports are on linear tv, people will watch them (what choice do they have?) and advertisers will follow, as live sports are the only thing that people can't or won't time shift.

MLS season pass covers teams and subscribers nationwide, including most of the major markets. If it can garner only 1 million subscribers (I'm one of them) I don't think the PAC, without the L.A. schools, could have hoped for many more. But, who knows?

Money changes everything. Great article, David. It's the same consolidation process that has turned most areas of modern economic life into duopolies, if not monopolies. Our lives will be run by Amazon, Google and whichever media company survives.

Success has many fathers, failure is an orphan. It's human nature. -

Holy Crap! Oregon's Unknown Defensive Backfield

I pretty sure Twitter will no longer let you see tweets unless you have an account. Change made in the last few days, I believe.

QUAAACK! 2024 WR Dillon Gresham Commits to Ducks!
jrw replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Man oh man, for us old people this is like a fantasy. Routinely getting commitments from 4-star players, with 5-stars in the mix, is something that back in the day couldn't even have been imagined. But, maybe these recruits are not Washington's kind of guys. You know, they don't need good players. -
