Black Man of the Day: Bomani Jones Update: Leaving ESPN!
- Thread starter playahaitian
- Start date
Super talented brother, that keeps getting paid, then cancelled. Is there a sustainable space for the new era of intelligent, pro black media talent in America?
HBO canceling 'Game Theory with Bomani Jones' after two seasons
HBO has canceled "Game Theory with Bomani Jones," according to confirmed reports on Monday. A critical success, the show struggled in the ratings.awfulannouncing.com
I think he would have been a joe budden level success but he wants that corporate backing along with the voice which is very very tough.
And Bo GOTTA GET HIS MONEY.
He could have been the foundation of Lebatard new network early, Jemelle and Michael both tried to steer him to the independent route. He didn't want to do that.
But he will be okay.
It's a difficult conversation because in a weird way ESPN needs him as much as he feels he needs them.
I don't understand why ESPN didn't go full Stephen A Smith with him. To me it's a safer better 'cheaper' investment.
I mean I KNOW but still that level of intelligence with the southern roots and diverse audience sells.
Told yall...
Buckle up Bo going address sum sh*t
Buckle up Bo going address sum sh*t
Last ej episode was last year, Is it for sure dropping on there?
Thanks Bo

He normally takes a break in July and August anyway, because there's nothing to talk about

Fam...I had a TOUGH couple of months
I did not need to witness this too
Many late nights in the ER listening to this brother got me thru it.
Check your pm
I hope he goes to meadowlark
I don't listen to ESPN or pretty much watch anything that's not a sports broadcast

^^^^
He should have BEEN went there.
He had a passionate online following BEFORE that was even a thing.
Espn already had a pat macafee level potential with Bo. His podcast numbers were great his live podcast was a sellout. His show helped blow up Foxworth. His presence on any OTHER show legitimized it. I hope they know what they doing.
I ONLY watch PTI and 30 for 30 and sporting events.
That's it. (Shout out around the horn cause that's the homie)
I can't watch first take or any of those other type shows on any network
This is really a sad state of affairs.
I'm still not sure why his hbo show didn't work but I think making the existing podcast more of a visual will benefit him greatly.
Money they don't value talent
that's all
that's all
I ain't smart enough to understand this stuff and the few people in the industry I know can't explain it to me
I KNOW ITS MONEY ALWAYS IS
But the firing people with guaranteed contracts with YEARS left?
Ok they have non compete clauses but still
They hiring big names to replace other big names? Who are more expensive?
Based on views?
They have no one but themselves to blame for completely dragging their feet on making the app functional, having a serious youtube and social media presence, etc...
They could have a dozen Pat McAfees by now.
That was not the talents fault.
Becoming the Screaming A smith network was THEIR DECISION.
They fumbled Michael Smith Jemele even Pablo etc etc etc
They sold their souls during Kaep, George Floyd, BLM, #me too catering to the worst incel right wing conservative viewers instead if their ACTUAL BASE.
Let me stop I'm getting fired up
