Nice going dummy. Just when you had gotten out of the ESPN doghouse and onto some of the better games on the four letter, you had to go and say something stupid again.
I always loved his braodcasts on Saturday with Mike Gottfried, but i guess he's self destructive as hell. Who the fuck calls a woman an asshole?
Have fun doing the play by play on ESPN's coverage of that cargo plane flying rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong.
EDIT: He made some really condescending remarks on air to Holly Rowe a few years ago and got banished to ESPN Siberia, the 3rd level Big 12 games. Apparently he called a sideline reporter sweetcakes at the Fiesta Bowl, and when she objected, he called her an asshole instead.

The cursing seems a bit unecessary but I agree nontheless.
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
Well was she acting like an asshole? If your're being an asshole someone should let you know regardless of gender, right?
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:37 PM ^
You're an asshole.
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
...in between your two posts and was ready to give you what for. Well done.
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:43 PM ^
that's not another person. that's called a mirror. mirr-or. dog had the same problem.
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:42 PM ^
My mom recently called me an asshole. Next time I'm going to use your response.
January 3rd, 2011 at 10:05 PM ^
As a mother, all I can say is....good luck with that.
January 3rd, 2011 at 10:39 PM ^
If I asked her why she called her daughter an asshole, her response to me would probably go something like this...
"Well sweetie, you got all your positive traits from me, but your asshole-ishness you get from your father"
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:45 PM ^
that he didnt call her a cunotary...
January 3rd, 2011 at 9:47 PM ^

I thought it was about Ron Burgundy. I mean, it pretty well fits.

A quick sentence to "what the hell" you're talking about would have been appreciated. For those who don't want to click:
Ron Franklin called sideline reporter "sweetcakes" and then "asshole" when she objected in a meeting. He was demoted from the on-air guy to ESPN radio.

Thanks for the feedback, didn't think about those not wanting to click.

"After the meeting Edwards reported Franklin’s comments to ESPN management."

Wouldn't be the first time they've dealt with a guy like that...
