ESPN’s Dr. Lou Segment Has Got To Go — Now
Really, it’s nothing about Lou Holtz himself. I can put up with the spittle flying during live broadcasts. I enjoy the old stories. They’ve got Mark May at his side to mock to rampant Notre Dame and South Carolina homerism.
He’s in a controlled environment so nothing too bad can happen. Except there’s this new “Dr. Lou” segment. After the a cappella intro I keep expecting Barry White or someone cool to show up but it’s just Lou Holtz. Apparently ESPN was embarrassed by the blog-wide mocking of Holtz’s “pep talks” last year, but those put this new segment to shame.
Video of Dr. Lou’s debut is after the jump.
