1. Who on earth would've gussed America doesn't care about Alex Rodriguez?
Despite making a big push to overhall its "Sunday Night Baseball" booth to land A-Rod, which meant also bringing in play-by-play man, Matt Vasgersian, each and every Sunday night game for the World Wide Leader has been down over the same week in 2017. In 10 weeks, not one game in 2018 was up from year ago. This is a pretty remarkable chart when you how steep the dips have been in many weeks.
Now, as much as I dislike A-Rod, I'd be an idiot to blame him for the ratings decline.
