I have pretty much stopped watching it.....The occasional bits and pieces of Mike & Mike and NFL highlights. That's pretty much it.

IF Greenberg & Golic are actually on together...also,listening to them for 9 minutes,followed by 6 minutes of commercials,for the entire show get's very annoying--I know it's how their salaries are paid,but it seems there has to be a better way...

I'm amazed that someone the age of the fly4fun still uses "OMG".

Here's a definition I found at Urban Dictionary:
3. OMG
Used by retarded teenagers.
They say it stands for OH MY GOD, but they really mean it stands for OBSERVE MY GAYNESS

There is a point of diminishing return with advertising and to me they have reached it. Too many advertisements and the audience will leave.

HEY they're getting ready to interview the couple to see how the date went. The girl is actually pretty hot. The guy has the appearance of a douchebag, but I'll wait for the interview to confirm. Standby.

I thought the story was funny. Good for the ball boy. In regards to ESPN, they single handedly made College Football what it is today and play more CFB than every other network combined. They give us games on Tues, Wed, Thurs nights..hell sometimes Friday nights and all day Saturday. For this, I am grateful and will gladly suffer through a story about a ball boy mackin on a honey in the crowd. Its August 25th, what exactly do you want them to talk about?

That's a small snippet of their appearance on ESPN.

Haha, love the Gatorade picture.

She's way out of his league.

"Once I realized he's just a ball boy and doesn't actually play for the team, I had no interest in going out with the guy...but I will enjoy my 15 minutes of fame before dumping him"

LOL....I noticed that, too, and did a quick search. He is 21. Didn't see what her age was.

One of the articles was joking around that it was a pretty expensive restaurant and the bullpen should chip in for the tab.

Champagne? Kid has no game.

She is a cute girl for sure. He might have to pick up a paper route to suppliment his income if he is going to keep chasing tail like that.

It's certainly possible but highly unlikely they were drinking Champagne.


If it was sparkling wine most of them are nasty. I have never understood the fascination with them.

I usually don't say OMG... but I didn't want to put OMFG in the title as to not hint at curse words in title (playing it safe because I'm a moderator). But thanks for commenting on something completely unrelated and pointless.

Also, the whole title was over the top stupid internet speak to begin with. The point was to be excessive and pointless in the title... it's the way of the internet.

I apologize that you weren't able to grasp the fact that the title is not how I normally type or talk in any situation unless it is one that I'm trying to be ridiculous.

ESPN currently has on some stupid segment about a ballboy giving a ball to a girl and getting a date. And no, it's not a quick 10 second story. This is at least a 2 minute piece. They are now discussing the intricacies of the date.

I got a text about this story from my cousin yesterday, which seemed random, but then I found out that the girl is my cousin's girlfriend's best friend.
