Sports fans enraged Biden ‘big boy’ press conference delays start of 2024 ESPY Awards

Sports fans were peeved that President Biden’s highly scrutinized “big boy” press conference delayed the start of the ESPY Awards Thursday night.

While Biden was fielding questions from reporters during his press conference” at Washington’s Convention Center after the annual NATO Summit with his reelection bid in the balance, the anticipated annual sports awards show that was supposed to air on ABC was kept on ice — and users on social media weren’t happy.

“i just tuned in to watch the espys why is joe biden on my screen,” one account tweeted.
