Tiger Up By Two, Rocco Swats At Imaginary Vultures Circling Him

Broadcast switch. ESPN retires its coverage for the day and turns it over to Bob Costas at NBC who sounds very, very serious, saying that "Rocco Mediate's Cinderella story is in jeopardy." He's speaking in hushed tones, like he's in a confessional or explaining death to a small child. He has not called Sean Salisbury a "fetus-faced douche." Yet.

But, seriously, was there any warning about this switch-over? I've been watching Scott Van Pelt ejaculate all over himself talking about the highlights for the last five minutes before they told me it switched over.

Anyway, Rocco's down by two going into the turn. It doesn't appear to look good for the man with the Rorschach Test hairline.
