It was so weird
Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
He's screwed.
His parting comments were interesting. He half tried to fall on his sword.

Toast. Tough way for it to end. I’m sure he feels terrible about it, but you can’t take it back. Add 1 to the unemployment line.

and right on cue, a player on the team he calls games for hit a home run right in the middle of his apology
you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet
Why even apologize? Your absolutely done and no apology will save you, if it were me I’d just say “Yea you heard what I said, I’m not apologizing for anything. Too bad”
The overlords are relentless.
Truth be told I never heard of this guy before this incident lol
A reputation so clean you could eat off of it!
I've tried for years to find dirt on Greg Gumbel so I can smear him, and it just can't be done.
I had heard the name maybe I think, not sure.
Anyway, it seems like broadcasters need to be aware of the hot mic situation. This is happening pretty frequently. Sometimes it is enlightening. Sometimes entertaining. Sometimes potentially career ending
Ray St Clair Roofing is getting their name out a lot extra for sure.
Edited to add clip if anyone hasn't heard it and wants to but doesn't feel like searching.
2nd edit. Looks like mods removed it. Makes sense.
Like I said he was vaporized as soon as it came out of his mouth with nothing saving him. Regardless if he was being sincere because he was sorry for saying what he said or sorry because his future Fox Sports paychecks were vaporized nobody will ever know. If it were Me I’d just man up and say i said how I felt. Screw it.
amazing how far we've come

Reminds me of a softball team i played on in the late 70's early 80's, the only difference is it was a good times van. Good memories.
screw this guy who calls themself Thom?
Thom? Thom is it? Its Thom now ? Thom with an H ? An utterly pointless H ? every other assclown named Thomas in the world drops the h and becomes Tom , It's silent Thommy ! Like you shoulda been
Also its hilarious that he is sorry , he said the word , that means he uses it off air right? So sorry I got caught would have been a better description
Sorry I got caught and sorry I’ll be missing those fat checks. He even tossed religion into the mix. Gotta love that

im triggered by this .
Who puts a silent letter in a nickname? pompous twit
bronco, could you explain to me how Brett Favre's
name is pronounced Farve?
Looks like he isn't obeying proper english etiquette to me.
I deleted this post, don't know what triggered me to write it.
I don't know if that's really the most important takeaway from all of this...
sorry , I'm going by brozzzzzzzncyyyyoooo now
the z's and y's are silent but it just comforts me to know they are present
It’s definitely the funniest 😂
LOL, as a Vikings fan, I used to kid around with a buddy at work from Wisconsin about that.
I would pronounce it Farvee, Far-vay, Fooveree or any other weird way I could. Of course all that changed when Brett became a Viking! ;-)
I've heard of Thom Brennaman.
I don’t believe you 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 Ok, I lied.
What exactly did he say? I keep searching but can't find it.
“The city of *AGS” Fill in the * with an F and there ya go
It’s ok Double D I won’t snitch 🤐. 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Broadcaster scandals aren't anything new. Heck, Al Michaels cracked a joke about Weinstein on air and had to apologize for it. And Marv Albert used to dress up in womens panties and have vampire hooker parties. I've come to expect a broadcaster scandal every now and then.
I forgot about good ‘ole Marv Albert, didn’t he get a little carried away with biting? 🧛♂️😂😂😂
Yes he did, and it is a known fact that he loved to dress up in womens panties, high heels, and fishnet stockings.😂😂😂😂
Not quite.
"f-- capital of the world" is what he said.
My gut tells me this was not the first time he'd said stuff like that while in the booth and somebody in production decided to flip on his mic to expose him. If you listen to the audio, it kinda cuts in in the middle of a sentence.
That was my gut feeling as well.
Yep @Tabe is correct. I was close 🤷♂️

That writer needs to take a chill pill. Give me a break 🙄
Not hardly.
(From Big Jake I believe?)
I read that too. Just chillax people. He said something inappropriate. We have all done it. Now, he may be a , I don't know but all this let's "crucify" any and all who screw up isn't good either. Next thing you know,they'll be tearing down his statue!
It's amazing that people haven't caught on and realize that the world has completely changed. You can't just say what you want anymore. You can't say what you want even if you are correct at times. People are hypersensitive and in a large group someone is bound to be offended. Leave race, religion and sex out of public conversations and you should do fine. And double check before you text/post stuff.
And the Thom guy is obviously a complete liar. You don't just talk like that once a century....LIAR.
And It’s a shame. After surviving 20 years in a correctional facility being held to an extreme high standard I’m more than happy to be my normal self and without even trying just offend idiots that are hypersensitive. Racism is one thing hypersensitivity is a completely different thing.
Perkdog,
I totally agree.
