Taking their best customers for drooling, money-to-burn saps and gawkers of product logos attached to every sight has become MLB’s business model.
OK, so you run a 75-year-old business that once thrived but has been losing popularity among your most devoted, longtime customers and their progeny. 2) Treat those complaints as quickly, smartly and long-term logically as possible? Since roughly the start of this century, MLB and its national TV partners have annually chosen No. 1 and No. 3.
Oh, and endless crowd shots of fans waving hand towels that could be, for all we know and all they’re worth, file footage from the annual Diet Ginger Ale Festival in Lambertville, N.J. And that likely will grow worse, as someone will come up with another artificial distraction device that will cause a rush of blood to the indiscriminate heads of TV execs. Call me crazy, but if I paid a fellow $6 million per to host a cable TV sports show, as Fox pays Colin Cowherd to host one on FS1, I’d occasionally check up on such a hire to learn if he’s any good, or at least knows what he’s talking about.
On his list, and spoken by Cowherd in the active tense, was Dwayne Haskins. He clearly did not know — and might’ve been the only one — that the Washington then Steelers QB, and former Ohio State star, was killed by a truck while walking a highway more than a year earlier. Georgia’s crime-infested football program has escaped the media attention it has earned due to its perceived value to TV networks, plus pandering to Machiavellian yahoos. The SEC Network, for example, is owned by ESPN/Disney, thus, well, you tell me. There is no better chance to conduct a good postgame interview than to have paid attention to the game. TBS’ Lauren Shehadi proved that after Thursday’s Game 4 of Guardians 5, Tigers 4.
