ESPN issues apology for Brent Musburger's Katherine Webb comments

 

[jekelish]

What did Musberger say? Do we need to start calling him Lustberger?

 

[TheSpaz]

LOL it was hilarious!

 

[Faegan]

Gramps was just a lil bit too creepy. LOL.

 

[Cuseregular]

saw nothing wrong with it, and LOLed at it. Maybe I'm turning into the dirty old man...

But seriously, he probably just ensured her getting the Ms. America title with all the attention and if and until I hear her say she was insulted I think its all good. Worlds too damn PC.

 

[Etancuse]

That gets an apology but nothing Mark Schwartz "reported" on does? hmm.

 

[Noexcuse]

Maybe if the game was more compelling he wouldn't have had to provide filler. I blame ESPN. They owe everybody who watched an apology for serving up that stinker. (j/k)

 

[Noexcuse]

Didn't realize Francesca was a Razorback fan . . . .

 

[JD]

It was funny as hell kind of like listening to your Grandfather fawn over a girl. His best line was man you QB's get all the girls to Herbstreit. I half expected him to ask how was Erin Andrews?

 

[690West]

The sign of the apocalypse. A formal apology for that? How sad

 

[jekelish]

"I dunno about you, Herbie, but daddy can skip his daily Viagra pill now!"

(Imagine in Musberger's voice)

If ESPN didn't show her half the game, he wouldn't have had to talk about her at all.

 

[kingtidge]

Yeah - I didn't take it as offensive but could see how some might... was certainly inappropriate and reeked of "dirty 'ol man".

Her twitter following went up over 164,000 as a result of Brent's remarks. Wouldn't be surprised if she sent BM a thank you note when she does her first commercial or gets a screen test for a movie.

 

[jekelish]

"Another score for Alabama, and the Tide is rolling! But Herbie, I don't think even Tide will get this stain out of my trousers! Yowza, Katherine Webb!"

 

[Halfmooncuse]

Well who the hell kept the camera on her? Did Musty keep telling them to go back and get another shot of her. His comments were weird though.

 

[690West]

Yeah - I didn't take it as offensive but could see how some might... was certainly inappropriate and reeked of "dirty 'ol man".

Was "certainly innapropriate"??? Certainly? She spends her life in pageants displaying her Beauty in front of judges. Holy mackerel tidge

 

[Orangello]

FWIW, I'm not wowed.

 

[HarrisonJBounel]

Blown WAY out of proportion. He didn't say anything creepy. It makes a nice story, but there simply is no story there.

There was nothing wrong with it. This country is going right into the crapper.

 

[djcon57]

FWIW, I'm not wowed.

I was saying to someone today..YEAH you're the QB of ing Alabama. You SHOULD have a hot girlfriend.

I mean...NUNES, nuff said.

 

[dasher]

are there rumors about Erin and that asshat?

 

[orangecuse]

Blown WAY out of proportion. He didn't say anything creepy. It makes a nice story, but there simply is no story there.

Couldn't agree more. He said nothing out of line imo, and, if saying 'wow' and 'what a beautiful woman' is offensive to anyone in the context that he stated it, well...my response would be 'wow' right back at you... Oh Lord

 

[Bill Orange]

Miss Alabama went on the record today, saying that she was not offended at all, going so far as to say that Brent was very complimentary.

Remember years ago when Brent essentially made Jenn Sterger into a media sensation during a Florida State game and then went on to fame and Favre? How come no apology then, ESPN?
