Censored



While Dickie Vitale can waste our valuable listening time going on and on and on (and on) about DOOK and the "classy guy" Coach K, the same does not hold true if an ESPN commentator wants to give a different, and usually more accurate, assessment of Vitale's favorite team.

Case in point: last night Len Elmore and that fat commentator who's name we can never remember were calling the UNC-WF game. Here's the brief, but telling, dialogue between the two during a time-out:

Fat Guy: "So, tomorrow night tune into ESPN at 7:00 as #10 Duke takes on #17 Clemson at Cameron Indoor Stadium."

Five seconds of silence.

Len: "You don't really think Duke is a #10 team do you?"

Fat Guy: "Uh, well, you know, hee-hee (nervous laughter) I just read what they tell me to read."

Safe to say that no one wants to bring down the wrath of Coach Cry, including ESPN.
