Welcome to the ESPN’s The Sports Reporters Live Scoring Game. Please click the link for the rules. This weeks panel is John Saunders as the mediator of Bob Ryan, Michael Kay, and Howard Bryant. I am not one to start rumors, but Bob Ryan won the game last week, and now he is the only one back from that panel. Did my humble scoring game have anything to do with it? I didn’t think so
No bonus points for the opening remarks. Howard Bryant does get a negative one point for wearing one big hoop earring. I am sorry, but that is not cool.
1st Segment. What is the best team in baseball? They spend the whole segment talking about the American League East. They throw the Angels in there but it is very gratuitous. They really just want to talk about the AL East.
Bob Ryan gets a negative one point for the first round. He brings up Steve Bartman as a reason the Cubs will not win this year. The Cubs have not won in 100 years. Bartman has had nothing to do with it. Then he has to go back and talk about the American League East… Again.
2nd Segment. How did the draft pan put and where will LeBron go?
The Draft was pretty boring. No good points.
Michael Kay does get a negative point for calling the NBA Draft age limit disgusting. That was a little silly. It is a little insulting to anyone that is told that it is for the players own good, but it is not disgusting. It is a necessary evil.
3rd Segment. They talk about Federer. No great points were made. It is Nadal and Federer. Roddick seceded a long time ago. No points for this round
4th Segment. Parting Shots. It is anyone’s game. Remember that you can get three points for having the best parting shot. I have been very tough on the scoring this game. The show has been sub par. John Saunders is the only one that is not negative. I feel like this is a bad episode of Celebrity Jeopardy. This game should not be that hard. I expect a lot from these guys, because they are ESPN’s Sports Reporters. They are not my local TV Sports Anchors.
The Parting Shots made up for the rest of the show. Everyone did great, but there can only be one winner. Mr. Saunders almost got it with a great Ode To Barry Melrose. Michael Kay rocked the parting shots. He talked about Adam “Don’t call me PacMan” Jones. He talked about how Pacman said he would pray for Don Imus. Then he reminded Adam that he should pray for the man that is paralyzed in Las Vegas because of his antics. Racial profiling did not shoot that man. Your henchman shot him.
Final Score is.
Michael Kay= 2
Howard Bryant= -1
Bob Ryan= -1
