Don't Try To Interview DeAndre Jordan When He's Listening To Tupac
DeAndre Jordan had a pretty big game last night, scoring 19 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and blocking six shots. His performance earned him the nod for the postgame interview, which did not go all that smoothly....
ESPN Finally Corrects Story That Misquoted Doug Baldwin
Yesterday, we brought up an ESPN report by Seahawks reporter Terry Blount that profanely misquoted Seattle wide receiver Doug Baldwin. For whatever reason, Blount incorrectly inserted a few "motherfuckers" into Baldwin's postgame rant. Last night, ESPN finally got around to correcting the story, a...

ESPN Writer Puts A Few "Motherfuckers" In Doug Baldwin's Mouth
Doug Baldwin's postgame rant at the media produced some great soundbites, but none quite as percussive as the ones quoted in this brief on-the-scene report from ESPN Seahawks writer Terry Blount, in which Baldwin is twice misquoted in a way that makes his outburst seem much more profane that it wa...
Paul Pierce Channels Surly Russell Westbrook In Postgame Interview
On Friday night, Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook pulled a Marshawn Lynch during his postgame media scrum, answering every question with some version of "we did a good job executing" before looking one reporter dead in the face and saying, "I just don't like you." Wizards small forward and joll...
Doug Baldwin Is Probably Still Looking For Doubters To Call Out
Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin made a brief and profane cameo in the madness immediately following Jermaine Kearse's game-winning touchdown catch, but that was just the start of his postgame highlight reel. From there, he went on to call out the NFL Network's Deion Sanders for being a punk-as...
Seahawks Radio Broadcast Erupts In Screams, Cursing After Kearse Catch
This 90-second clip from Seahawks radio flagship KIRO has it all: ecstatic announcers celebrating Seattle's return to the Super Bowl, Doug Baldwin profanely asserting that Russell Wilson "didn't have a fuckin' message" before the game-winning drive, and Jermaine Kearse insisting that "I know I did...
Seahawks Finally Get On Board With Punter-To-Tackle Field Goal Fake
Seattle finally put a dent in Green Bay's 16-0 lead with a touchdown pass—but not from Russell Wilson, and not to a Seahawks wide receiver. No, it was punter Jon Ryan finding offensive tackle Garry Gilliam in the end zone on a fake field goal. That's what we all expected, right?...

ESPN's Dave Pasch Outs Self As Creationist After Receiving Darwin Book
We've noted previously that college basketball games called by Dave Pasch and Bill Walton on ESPN can get especially weird, but we never imagined that it would be Pasch who would lead viewers to ask themselves, "Did he really just say that?" ...
Lou Merloni Resists Attacking Protestors Who Say Black Lives Matter
Former Red Sox infielder and current WEEI yakker Lou Merloni is perhaps best known in Boston for being from Framingham and for being Nomar's friend.

<i>Price Is Right</i> Announcer Tries To Run Backward On Treadmill, Eats It
George Gray has been The Price Is Right's subpar replacement for the irreplaceable Rod Roddy for four years now, and this is not his best moment. To his credit, Gray finished his spiel without a hitch; he's still no anthem singer. ...
