Talking about wrestling online, against my better judgment. Backlash 2000 to WM 17 was consistently a higher level and got me back into it. Quality tailed off when they made the Invasion about the McMahons. Smackdown was good from 03-05, featuring several folks who turned out to be bad people.

Double, homer, double, homer, IBB, IBB, IBB, IBB, unintentional-intentional BB. They would not pitch to him as the winning run. Total Barry-level stuff.

It might just be a weird transitional year - we might be looking back in five years that this is the start of a Colts- Jags rivalry, even though my brain has not yet made that something I care about. Cannibalizing their schedule w/ good teams in bad Thursday games doesn't help, though.

Strong disagree.... there was no reason for Dave O'Brien or anyone else to think he caught the ball, which is part of what made it feel ridiculous. Rafaela's initial reaction was selling the wall shot, then he stretched and was all "oh what do I have here."

The thing where blue checkmarks went from a verification to a paid signal boost was a paradigm shift with nothing else to shift to. Not good.

It also lent itself to newspapers - box scores, pitching probables, daily schedules, stat leaderboards. You saw the same names every day.
Some of it is just the world changing but "be on free TV on the weekend" created a huge chunk of its fandom that the league just punted on.

It is weird to me that food courts figured out "we should do this but with better food" but malls haven't followed suit with "we should do this just with better stores."

I know it's been pointed out, but this is also why the same media types went crazy for Hillbilly Elegy. Finally, something to explain THOSE kinds of people.
