Is it Possible...

...to send Terrell Owens out to Cambodia with Hart (who btw is having a grand old time, much to my suprise, in SouthEast Asia) because frankly he is taking up valuable air space on ESPN. After all I'm sure its squeezing out time of their coverage of the Patriots or segment in which Sean Salisbury kicks sand in the face of John Clayton.

Here at Back Seat Drivers Publishing Columbus branch, an attempt will be made to have live coverage of the Cleveland Browns v. New York Giants. No promises. I hear Shockey has it in for me ever since I popped him good at the Jets practice.

I'm with you. ESPN needs to develop a full 30-minute program where it's just Salisbury and Clayton yelling at eachother/Salisbury giving Clayton wedgies, noogies and purple nurples. Does anyone else cringe every time Clayton makes fun of Salisbury's playing career? I wonder if Sean starts to take it personally after a while.

Also, has anyone seen the promos for their new show, "ESPN Hollywood" on ESPN2? It's basically an Entertainment Tonight news magazine format talking about sports celebrity gossip. Why on earth do these bozos think we need that? Do I honestly care what Serena Williams wore to the ESPY's or that Ben Roethlisberger and his trailer trash golfer girlfriend Natalie Gulbis like to screw in certain yoga positions? For f*ck's sake, ESPN has gone and grown titties now(excuse the crude terminology but I could've said worse).

I can't decide which makes me more uncomfortable Clayton making fun of Salisbury's career or Salisbury comparing Clayton to a human bobblehead doll.

ESPN is becoming more and more like crappy cable news everyday so I'm not suprised that they now do tabloid bits. sigh. Remember when reporters did actual reporting?

John Clayton is a real reporter, it's just that ESPN forces him to get in these silly arguments w/ Sean Salisbury Steak.

I heard AC Slater, of Saved by the Bell fame, is hosting "ESPN Hollywood."

Most ridiculous side note: I got Tiger Woods golf for my computer a year ago. The computer kept playing against me as Natalie Gulbis. I kept getting mad that the computer kept choosing this mega-hot fictional female character to play against me. I didn't realize she was REAL until Roethlisberger started dating her. I still think EA Sports has created a machine like in "Weird Science", and they brought her to life. "She's Alive!!!"

Gutsy, that's really funny. I actually didn't know who she was until ESPN featured her on their annual Babe of the Year voting thing on Page 2. I think she was a Final Four candidate this year.

I agree, Clayton is a real journalist, he's just being forced into fighting with Salisbury because the guys in the ESPN boardroom get the giggles every time they see the two of them on screen together.

We've been blog-spammed, it seems.

Somebody in the tech department is going to a nasty phone call from me. I didn't even know it was possible to be blogspammed.

But I enjoy hip hop and like concert hip hop even more...

MJ said...

I forgot who the comedian was that made the joke but hip-hop in concert is really just a bunch of people in baggy clothes talking loudly into microphones and obscuring the backbeats they are "rhyming" over. Hip hop is an artform best served in a recording studio.
