I don't think Andre is correct here. If the league wanted Mark out of prominent positions due to his views, he wouldn't be on the NBA's biggest broadcast partner, talking to a TV audience of 20 million people

MLB really fell off after opening day. In general, both leagues aren't getting the audience one might expect from a nation that's been deprived of entertainment for months
To be fair since I compared MLB vs NBA return night 1, here is night 2

Mets-Braves (4p) - 922K
Brewers-Cubs(7p) - 1.0M
Angels-As (10p) - 797K
NBA (last night ESPN)
Celtics-Bucks (6:30p) - 1.3M
