How the NFL & ESPN DESTROYED Baseball, Boxing & Tennis | 7.25
On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones is joined by Howard Bryant of ESPN & Meadowlark Media to talk about issues within tennis and Major League Baseball. The show begins with Bo and Howard discussing why fame may be dependent on how old someone is (6:15) and why the decline in SportsCenter means less knowledge across the board in sports (9:32). They move onto tennis and say why it's an American sport yet Americans aren't good at tennis (19:03) and why you no longer need to win tournaments to achieve success in the sport (26:02). After the break, they dive into baseball's issues including why stars like Mike Trout aren't recognizable (33:00), how the MLB lost its grasp on being the summer sport (37:28) and would America even care if a historic record was about to be broken? (50:01)
