Re: ESPN\'s new show E:60 (2 thumbs down!)
[ QUOTE ]
Remember the Arkansas/Alabama game a few weeks back where they kept having some US Women's Soccer player randomly appear ont he phone talking up the Women's world cup? Ugh. [/ QUOTE ] But, but... she was FROM ALABAMA!!! it doesn't get any more relevant than that! [ QUOTE ] Then the next week the UGA/Bama game Mike Patrick makes a fool out of himself on the game's final dramatic play [/ QUOTE ] Mike Patrick is a [censored] dirtbag [censored] [censored] [censored]. ESPN jumped the shark when they demoted Ron Franklin for schooling that stupid bitch Holly Rowe when she made some retarded [censored] comment. They should have canned her ass and kept the best [censored] play-by-play guy they've got in their primetime slot. Retards. [ QUOTE ] I have to wonder why ESPN hasn't felt some sort of backlash in the ratings about this yet. Clearly they would change if they felt it would bring in more people? [/ QUOTE ] Because THEY HAVE THE GAMES. ESPN motto: "We got em, you want em, so SHUT UP." They're like the phone company of college football. Generally I mute the TV and listen to the games on the radio. |

Patrick asked her something about Bama and if she was excited about the game or something and she goes "yeah, I always pull for them unless they are playing Georgia or Auburn." LOL. Nice research guys. |

Holly Rowe made some comment about a team "giving up" because they weren't using their timeouts, even though they were down by like 50 points with two minutes left. Ron said "It's not 'giving up' when it's 200-0, sweetheart." There may have been some subtle scoffing. Next year, Ron was dumped to ESPN2. |

[/ QUOTE ] from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Franklin "On October 1, 2005, according to the Chicago Tribune, during a game between Notre Dame and Purdue that Franklin was calling, sideline reporter Holly Rowe lauded Purdue defensive coordinator Brock Spack for using all three timeouts on defense despite trailing by four touchdowns late in the game. "If the coaches are giving up," Rowe added, "what does that say to the players?" Franklin responded: "Holly, it's not giving up. It's 49-21, sweetheart." In response to that, Mo Davenport, senior coordinating producer for college football said, "It was an inappropriate comment, and we've communicated that to Ron. There's never a reason to say something so mean-spirited. Ron apologized. We dealt with it internally."" |
