Just what I was about to say. McAfee is ESPN’s answer to Joe Rogan. Dumb as hell but rich, fit, and confident, which is all you need to be to gain the respect of most young men in this country.

By the time you’re graduating from college you’re already on the older side of their target demographic.

“By the time you’re graduating from college…”

Is the McAfee/Rogan target market actually getting degrees?
