With the sparcity of sports news this time of year and now that the Confederations Cup is over, it's been a real pain trying to find things of substance for me to post (see yesterday's posts). It's not me and it's not laziness (well, the fact that I missed 2 things sort of is, but that's not the point), it's the fact that there is not much to post. Regardless, I'll be out today until tonight when I will be at The O Files chatting with James Craven about I Survived A Japanese Game Show. Thus naturally, 5 different huge sports headlines will break today including Brett Favre's decision about whether he will play this year and David Wright will test postitive for steroids and be suspended. But instead of leaving you on that depressing luck on how all of the major news comes out on days when I am not around, I will leave you with a compilation of videos of awful announcing (and one nut shots compilation)! Enjoy!
Clueless baseball announcer
Clueless hockey announcer
A WHAT?!?!?
PAMMY!!!!
More Pammy!!!!
TOUCHDOWN USC!!!! Oh, wait....
Mike Patrick would like to torture Orel Hershiser
What is Britney doing with her life?
Don't forget, that was the OT game-winning touchdown!!! Too funny.
And lastly, as promised, NUT SHOTS!!!!
Too painful!
I'll talk to y'all later tonight if you decide to stop by (assuming JC's computer is working as well, that thing is more inconsistent than Brett Favre's retirement plans).
Props for finding that CWS video from last year, JFein. Patrick kept busting his balls over that pic (along the lines of "How did you get dates in college?" or something to that effect).
ReplyDeletePatrick: "Ive lost track. Who's up? Who's playing? I know it's 19-10 and I'm tired."
Off-camera, Mike tells this to the producer before the start of the 4th Quarter of every Saturday night game.
After searching "Mike Patrick" on YouTube, it was one of the first videos to come up. That picture of Hershiser is funny, though. And while I have not seen his picture from H.S., looking at him when he started SNF at ESPN and seeing him now is kind of funny.
ReplyDeleteEr, RJBO, Mike Patrick tells that to his producer after ever play....

ReplyDeleteI would expect Pat Summerall to do that, not Mike Patrick....yet. Give him another year or so. If Summerall did the ESPN Saturday Primetime games, he'd call the sideline reporter "Debbie Rowe."
