The more I thought of this thread (ugh) the more I realized how wrong it was in many ways. The sports lineup is dictated by the IOC. The events are pre-planned as in when the are held.

Do you think ESPN is ignoring Men’s basketball in favour of men’s gymnastics or women’s rowing?

The whole women’s events not worth watching comment tells me you are not a true sports fan.

Bringing U.S.A. political theories into the story reflects poorly on you (idiot)
or America in general ( messed up divided “country” ).
Why did you quote my post? Your point (in addition to being wrong) is a complete non sequitor to what I was saying. Also, since you apparently don’t know, ESPN isn’t broadcasting the games, NBC is. ESPN is broadcasting olympics related content, and the IOC has no input on what ESPN chooses to focus on, or why.
