ESPN Reporter Doris Burke accidently curses on live TV

She said "F*** hole"

A clear combination of F*** and a**hole. Very creative, I might add.

 

They can't post that good on sports forums, either...

Spoiler

 

Why do people with speech impediments gravitate towards t.v. and radio broadcasting? Are they overcompensating? Ithths annoying.

 

this. By far one of the best commentators on ESPN.

 

She thought she was recording a segment, not broadcasting live. How embarrassing.

 

Sometimes I think Jon Barry does no homework at all. He leads ESPN in ignorant comments closely follow by Jackson.

I'm fine with Doris Burke. What she needs to do is stop the very lame attempts at humor.

 

I'd rather have good commentating than good looks because honestly now the sideline reporters talk a lot even if the camera isn't on them, and I couldn't stand another person that didn't know basketball talking.

With that being said, really it's on whoever decides to hire these people. He should understand that there are good looking women who like basketball and hire one of them. :grin:

 

go easy on Ric Bucher

 

I disagree. I don't think she's great, but she's much better than some others (Reggie Miller, for one).

 

She does a fine job with color; actually, IMHO, she's one of the best. She's into the game. Hubie Brown's my favorite, and I like JVG when he says coach-like things, like, "Right now if I'm OKC I'm quickly fouling Haywood." When JVG jokes around or debates his old point guard, meh. And I have to listen to Clyde all season-- which is the only silver lining to not making the playoffs.

 

Would hit.

 

My guess is she wasn't actually live but it was recorded and whoever was editing/playback didn't cut it down to the right clip and instead ran the bad takes.

I really, really doubt she was supposed to shoot that live and thought it was just going to tape. Someone in production messed up.

 

Being one of the best commentators on espn isn't saying much, outside of Jeff, I don't think any of them could cut it on TNT. Bring back NBA on NBC!

 

NBA on NBC can't compete with TNT. They should just make the TNT the default NBA group for all games. I actually look forward to watch TNT halftime and post game show. I can't say the same for any other channel on any other sport.

 

Disagree, NBC had the best presentation, they dramatized every game. Analyst wise TNT is better hands down.

And I always liked Greg Gumble.

Definitely.

She's like an older Kate Winslet. Very nice for 46

 

I doubt good looks count for much in sports commentary. Jeff Van Gundy is doing quite well at it after all.

 

What a fake. She acts all nice and smiley when she thinks she is on camera and the second she is off camera she acts like a total b****. I hate people like her.

 

I Heard **** all.

 

Neither Barkley, nor Smith has an I.Q. above 70. TNT's show is practically unwatchable because they are so r****ded.
