blechquote:Wilbon’s lengthy and nonsensical response implored viewers to understand the context of boxing, yes, but that none of Mayweather’s charges are new and that Mayweather’s critics are just new to boxing, “wild-eyed” and “naïve.” ... “There’s a long history of boxers in trouble. Criminal trouble, much of it domestic violence,”

SamuraiFoochs posted:Bill Walton is a national treasure. All his story was missing was buying a tab of 'tickets' in the parking lot for the Dead show he attended but through his recollections it was heavily implied but never said. My hippie friend turned me onto to his show and I couldn't help but laugh as Walton waxed nostalgically about winning or losing a particular basketball game but the Dead were in town so he went to the show and had a great time. TL;DR: Walton loved to drop Vitamin A. Robnoxious fucked around with this message at 07:47 on May 3, 2015 |

Holy poo poo, this is an amazingly horrifying sizzling take. I hope Wilbon addresses the responce to it and tells us to get this JUNK outta here cuz he's a midwestern boy from the south side of Chicago and that's just how it is

Wilbon begging to be friends with athletes has to be one of the more pathetic things going on at ESPN. Sad the company hires sycophants desperate for athlete acceptance instead of actual journalists.

I guess they think that being buddy buddy with athletes gets them the "inside scoop" and the kind of access they need to do special interviews, 30 for 30 specials, and such.

Crazy Ted posted:Reggie Miller Miller is bad, but, he's kind of neutralized by TNT's superb coverage of the NBA. Marv Albert is probably THE voice of Pro Basketball, plus you got that chemistry going on with the studio group, and Craig Sager is really good at his job (Leukemia can gently caress off). Even the "B-Team" guys like Kevin Harlan, Dick Stockton, and Kevin Colabro are all excellent. Jackson is kind of like the anti-Charles Barkley in a lot of ways (who is the best).

Kevin Harlan is not B-Team you monster. Jackson is bad but it's really the constant axe grinding with the Warriors, which they let him cover for some bizarre reason.

I don't follow the NBA but I love the studio segments with EJ Jr, Sir Charles and Kenny when I catch them. EJ is all class anyways but that move cements it in more way than one.

Just thought I'd post this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-qLQtW5EmM I don't even really watch basketball but I love the TNT NBA Crew, they have the best chemistry and every studio show should strive to be half as entertaining as these guys.

He was a famous fighter from the 80’s who rose to fame through his vicious knockout prowess. He was all flash. Inevitably he faded to bolivia after his flash caught up to him and he went to prison for something or another and then lost some fights probably. Now, none of you remember his name and he has been out of the public eye for decades. Here’s his Wikipedia page in case you forgot his name. I had to fast forward to the credits of The Hangover just to remember his name! Also I love the "Look at me" Athlete. About the only one I didn't really like was Terrell Owens, aside from that? Loved them.

So Turner re-upped their deals with everyone on the Inside The NBA crew. Good news: Barkley is sticking around. Bad news: Shaq is sticking around.

FOX's coverage of the US Open was largely a disaster, and there are 10,000 complaints I can voice about Joe Buck, but god drat if he isn't one of the very few people who knows to shut the gently caress up at big moments and let the crowd and players tell the story. They also did a great job of keeping mics aimed at the players so we could hear them chatting with their caddies and yelling at the ball. Aside from that, good lord their coverage could not have been a much bigger mess.
