Outside the Lines' frank discussion of Mike Rice's physical and verbal abuse continued today as Bob Ley interviewed former player Tyree Graham, who witnessed Rice's action while at Rutgers. Ley asked Graham where Rice went over the line and he replied it was when he started using profane language and homophobic slurs to refer to the players. Unfortunately for ESPN, the seven second delay wasn't quite working fast enough as Graham explicitly recounts Rice's verbal abuse. Obviously the language is NSFW…

Bob Ley quickly reminds Graham he's on live television and then soldiers on in the interview like the boss that he obviously is, apparently offering a later apology for the language that slipped through. The wonders of live television!
