    OH MY GOD!

    She took three takes which is clearly more than the one most NORMAL people do.

    I'D LOVE TO SEE HER FACE. I'LL BET SHE FEELS SILLY.

    I don't think it was her fault though, probably the camera-man or a producer who ran the wrong video.

    Hopefully this b**** gets fired. Sideline reporters are worthless in general but she announces games too occasionally and she's terrible. Sometimes I watch the game on mute when she is calling it. Not that I don't think a woman could be a good announcer, but Doris Burke is just plain awful.

    I believe she said "F*** you" talking to herself because she messed up twice.

    Her voice is annoying but at least her heads in the game when she commentates, I don't mind her too much. Marc Jackson is worst because he goes off on tangents and gets too caught up in his trademark phrases, also he can let his bias get in his way which is awful. JVG gets distracted too but he's at least entertaining.

    yep I agree is not her fault, its the producer that put the wrong video.
    She cursed very quiet, (to herself I think) and that part shouldnt be on TV, at least at that time, maybe for some bloopers or somethin.

    Wow, our youth is officially destroyed... SHE'S A WITCH! BURN HER.

    /sarcasm

    But honestly, I wouldn't be opposed to firing her. Not because of what she said here... just because I think she's easily one of the worst (occasional) commentators on television.

    other than JVG, Doris Burke is my favorite ESPN analyst

    Unlike Marc Jackson or John Barry, she actually sounds like she does her homework on the teams she is covering.

    How is she terrible? I'm not saying she's the best but she does a decent job at least

    I think she's a decent reporter. She does a pretty good job of calling games.

    Did she commentate on some of the Thunder-Grizzlies games? If so, I thought she was good. I liked that she stuck to the game and wasn't trying so hard to entertain like some of the other commentators.

    Agreed. Doris understand if she ****s up on her Z-list broadcasting duties she probably won't get any more so she put forth her best effort. She knows her facts about the Rockets; actually knows who Chuck Hayes is and what he does for our team.

    They need to go back to the days when sideline reporters were only hired for their looks. Give me some bimbo supermodel reading blindly off of a prompter any day.

    Because she is female in world of sports. You can tell from comments that many think female is incompetent for the job no matter what. "I don’t mind her too much" = she is not too ugly or too opinionated, so I guess she does not disrupt man’s world too much.

    What happened there? She didn't know she was on live TV? That seems like the producer's fault.
