Awful Announcing
Shannon Sharpe will keep debating opposite Skip Bayless, and Tom Verducci will do more than just baseball reporting for Fox Sports.
It's not James telling Bayless to get up at 2 a.m. every day and run for an hour before heading to work.
"I have never, ever, as God is my witness, contrived a single debate in a single show.”
"There was the one report yesterday that this got so bad in practice going back two years ago that Chris Paul was making fun of Harden's manboobs in practice to the point where he broke down in tears and had to leave a couple of practices."
Bayless has been hating on Leonard since Leonard left the Spurs, but he took that to a new level Thursday night and Friday morning after Leonard was named Finals MVP.
Skip needs to go outside for a while. Maybe walk around a lake or something.
"IF YOU ARE A KNICK FAN, THIS IS THE EQUIVALENT OF BEING KIDNAPPED, STORED IN A BASEMENT, BEING TORTURED AND THEY LET YOU OUT WHEN YOU ARE NO USE TO ANYBODY! IF YOU ARE NOT A KNICKS FAN, YOU MAKE ME SICK! I DON'T LIKE ANY OF YOUS, ANY OF YOUS!"
"Harper hit .211 in 19 post-season games, striking out 23 times in 76 at-bats and compiling an .801 OPS. He was often on the DL, from which he tweet-praised a pitcher who was no-hitting Nats. His grotesque behavior on the field was worse than what goes on in the Capitol."
"Combine middle-school humor with plenty of bitterness and what do you get? Monday’s front page of the Times-Picayune."
Gottlieb brought the fire on multiple fronts this week.
"If the players all retired tomorrow, we would replace them, the game would go on; in three years it would make no difference whatsoever. The players are NOT the game, any more than the beer vendors are."
The hottest takes from Sept. 7-13 included several on Serena Williams.
Nichols' take on professional esports was the hottest of the week.
"Do Tennessee fans who are taking delight in Schiano getting passed over for Interim tag realize that their outrage over his hiring has forever tainted him? Congrats?"
