Broadcasting 101...Timing

You know the clueless co-worker who interrupts your Monday morning quarterbacking discussion, by interjecting a foolish question along the lines of, “Has anyone been to the PF Chang’s on Rockville Pike?” or “Which blend of grass seed should I put down this time of year?” or “Why do they call it Ovaltine?” Anyway that guy…he showed up in Overtime of the Georgia – Alabama game over the weekend…and his name is Mike Patrick. This tremendously awkward exchange between Patrick and color analyst Todd Blackledge occured just seconds before the game-winning TD pass, thanks to the guys at awful announcing for the link. ESPN are you going to stand for this, enough already! Put Ron Franklin back on the primetime game.
