Bonnie Bernstein Is Not An Expert On The Middle East
Bonnie Bernstein, everybody's favorite Jersey sideline reporter, has had a relatively quiet couple of years at ESPN. That is, until a couple of days ago, when she made a bit of a verbal misstep on the Mike and Mike show....

Dana Jacobson Has The Sole Appropriate Reaction To The Mike And Mike Roast
Last Friday night, they held that "Mike And Mike Celebrity Roast" thing in Atlantic City. It was about as entertaining as you'd expected it to be, according to the Press Of Atlantic City. (No offense to Trey Wingo, but when you host half the show, and the other half is hosted by Jeffrey Ross, you're...

The Upcoming Vivisection Of Mike And Mike, Truly
On January 11, 2008, you're likely to still be recovering from Dennis Kucinich's stunning wins in Iowa and New Hampshire on his way to become the 44th President of the United States. So there's not much better way to clear your cluttered mind than to attend the Mike and Mike Celebrity Roast....

Does Anyone On Earth Own A Fathead?
We ask with genuine curiosity: Who in the world puts a Fathead on their wall? What started out as an odd marketing campaign with Ben Roethlisberger screaming at us to "get a Fathead," or "be a Fathead," or whatever, has clearly grown into ... well, a larger marketing campaign. We've never quite seen...

Buzzsaw-49ers MNF Live Blog
All right, we'll tell you right now: This is a terrible idea. Not only have we been up since 4:15 this morning, but we're also in the odd position of attempting to type non-stop, for three hours, about the season opener of a team for which we have an emotional connection. And we're going to do it ...

What's That Lassie? Mike Greenberg Needs Our Help?
The sun is shining these days on ESPN radio host Mike Greenberg. He's on the backup team for "Monday Night Football," he's got a wacky "Everybody Loves Greeny!" book on the shelves, he's introducing spelling bees on network television and he's the official face of Arena Football, for better or worse...

Mike And Mike Are Everywhere You Look
All told, we think we gave Mike and Mike too hard of a time on the whole spelling bee thing. They weren't so bad; maybe they toned down the schtick for ABC. Anyway, as part of ESPN's plan to have Mike Greenberg (the gay one) and Mike Golic (the fat one) broadcasting every event that Berman and Tiric...

How Do You Spell "P-L-E-A-S-E L-O-R-D G-O-D S-T-O-P T-A-L-K-I-N-G?"
Sometimes we wonder if we are too hard on ESPN. Sure, collectively, they seem to have sucked the very life out of sports, packaging schtick and corporate pablum into a stew of impossible-to-digest soulless muck. (And, unlike the rest of us, they mix metaphors!) But they're still just individuals, ou...

Celebrating The True Romance Of Mike Golic
You might have been cynical about the "Mike and Mike Marriage Madness" last Friday — which was "tastefully Gator," in the words of the groom — but that's because you're cold-hearted and don't believe in the "special company [ESPN] has created and nurtured every day." Soulless bastards....

A Match Made In Bristol
That "Mike and Mike Wedding Madness" wedding happened this morning, with the two Florida Gators fans hitching up in front of the his-and-her Gators mascots, Bill Walton and a smattering of ESPN2 viewers....

ESPN Rocks Down Alison Road
An intrepid tipster sends us this beauty of an invite, encouraging ESPN employees to come to the Bristol cafeteria this Friday for that "Mike And Mike In The Morning" wedding and see the Gin Blossoms rock the buffet line like it has never been rocked before....

Mike Greenberg Is Gay Vogue. Really
OK, so you know how ESPN radio hosts Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic are constantly making jokes about how Greenberg is a "metrosexual" and Golic is, uh, hmm, a loutish oaf? (If you need any more substantiation of this Extremely Marketable Odd Couple Quality, check out their newest lame ass cartoon,...

More Cartoon Idiocy at ESPN
"Episode Two" of "Off-Mikes" — the visual interpretation of Mike Greenberg's and Mike Golic's morning show — has premiered on ESPN.com. As usual, it's just a bunch of ADD animation with a couple of buffoon figures doing slapstick. A legitimate question: Who in the world likes this crap? We don't ...

Mike Greenberg's One Joke
We have always been curious about the life that ESPN anchor/radio host/all around nerd Mike Greenberg lives his life. His radio show starts at 6 a.m., where he and professional oaf Mike Golic play out tired Odd Couple gags for four hours. We imagine he's then in meetings all day, grooming, nodding, ...
