Sportscenter 1 for 10 jokewise
Recalling our earlier posts about forced humor on Sportscenter...
I saw the Sunday 9 pm show and watched Stu and John validate all of our points from earlier in the week (stale bits, overused catchphrases, etc.).
However, they did have one funny bit...
When going over the Redskins-Falcons highlights, they mentioned how "Patrick Ramsey passed to Lavernius Coles, his TEAMMATE." Then they kept it up with a couple more TEAMMATE comments throughout the highlights.
This was funny for two reasons:
(1) They commented on Lisa Guerrero's gaffe on MNF when she called Coles the "former teammate" of Ramsey.
(2) They implicitly criticized someone on ABC, ESPN's sister network (which is verbotten under Disney's synergy policy).
In competent sideline reporter news, Suzy Kolber was solid in the Sunday night game (and wore a retro, Mary Tyler Moore-style outfit).
