A hat tip to the LADIES… for discovering what former ESPN announcer and pro baller Joe Theismann is doing with his free time - pimping snack food none of us have even heard of before the Super Bowl:
(Scroll to about 2:55 or so on the video for the blatant plug for “Town House FlipSides”)
I have some sympathy for Theismann’s gritting his teeth as the Raleigh, NC, station he happens to be on reeks of morning show to me. As someone who’s written and produced a morning newscast, these satellite media tours (SMTs) are a regular annoyance in my inbox — and they only increase during Super Bowl week, with more has-beens and never-weres looking to use news time to sell the public absolute crap.
BRADY QUINN DONS USC JERSEY AFTER LOSING IRISH BET: Even after graduating, Brady Quinncan’t escape the futility that has engulfed the Notre Dame program:
CBS SPORTSLINE reports Quinn had to wear a USC jersey Wednesday after losing a bet. The ex-Irish QB made the wager with ex-Trojan signal-caller Rodney Peete over last Saturday’s game, with USC pounding ND, 38-0.So, for the day’s interview, the Browns QB pulled the #10 cardinal-and-gold item out of his locker, and slipped it on. But Brady did come prepared: “That’s why I’ve got extra layers on, so it doesn’t actually touch any part of my body.”
After the chat was over, Quinn quickly ripped off the jersey and threw it in the trash.We hope Brady makes room in his closet for some Navy, Air Force, Duke and Stanford apparel.
