Drew Magary Is Somewhat Perturbed With The Help
Last night, I went to tape an episode of Comcast Sports Net’s “Blog Show” with Jamie Mottram and Dan Steinberg. And, as sometimes happens on a TV set, there were some minor creative differences, and I had a very small incident in the heat of the moment where I let my temper get the best of me. These things happen, even to the seasoned broadcasters such as myself. I deeply regret it. While I wish that some of the staff at Comcast had been a bit more diligent in their work, it was no excuse for me to act that way I acted.
This off-air video is now nearly a day old and does not reflect my typical workplace demeanor, my relationships with co-workers, nor the vast contributions I have made to Comcast Sports Net during my television career, a career that has spanned well over eight minutes. I have a tremendous connection with sports fans and my body of work should not be judged by a few minutes of unguarded language uttered hours ago. I’m not excusing the language used, and I will be emphasizing to the KSK workforce the importance of using appropriate language in the workplace.

2nd NOTE: Blogger Quiz bowl, bitch!

Can someone do a side-by-side combo of this and the Berman outburst or something like those dopey NBA split-face commercials that Simmons finds so interesting?
The similarities are uncanny. Well played, Drew.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:50 am
Such a cranky wittle boy. Yes you are. Yes you are.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:52 am
Can’t wait to play that with the audio during lunch…the gestures just look angry.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:53 am
You know when people turn upside down and paint eyes on their chin and then talk and it’s really funny cause it kind of looks like an oddly shaped face?
That’s what you look like constantly. You’re like a walking Weird Al video.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:55 am
He looks different when sober.
Wait…he was sober, yes?
June 11th, 2008 at 11:55 am
You look like a grown-up Corky. Birth defects much? What a retard.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:56 am
ufford: pale :: magary: a soft pinkish hue
June 11th, 2008 at 11:56 am
Nicely done. Although they edited out the part where you asked her if she was wearing a bra.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:57 am
That guy bears an uncanny resemblance to somebody who, several years ago, cockblocked me just as I was about to close the deal with this chick in a leather jacket…
June 11th, 2008 at 11:57 am
I thought that the camera added 15 pounds not 50.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:00 pm
twoeightnine,
That’s high-definition for you.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:01 pm
Don’t fret–by blogger standards you’re only mildly overweight, which makes you a 9.
And tell us when you start shaving–we can offer some tips.

Were you sitting on the unicorn’s horn?
June 11th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
At least we know the future of the human race is intact, it’s not like Drew is out there pro-creat…
wait, what’s that? He did what? A blog consisting of the details of being/becoming a father? Seriously? Well fuck me sideways.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
So in the first picture, we see a golf shirt with all the buttons open. Then now we see a dress shirt with multiple buttons open. Please don’t ever wear jeans with a button-fly
June 11th, 2008 at 12:14 pm
So it’s pronounced like Leo McGarry. Good to know.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
So…What’s it like to work with Bill Murray?
June 11th, 2008 at 12:21 pm
@Naptown
I thought his best work was as a plucky underdog just trying to break onto the field for Notre Dame.
/no one else sees Sean Astin +30 pounds? Just me? Fine.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
I can’t wait for until Drew talks about a “cheeky” Chardonnay!
June 11th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
stay out of the sun BDD or wear SPF-100
@Phony Gwynn, on Planet Unicorn……….heyyyyy!
June 11th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
At which point in the segment does Drew ask Paul McCartney if he’s seen Die Hard?
June 11th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
So when you guys started getting paid to write this site, did you all buy matching blazers?
June 11th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
Video is no longer available. Now where am I supposed to get my RDA of blogger bile?
June 11th, 2008 at 12:47 pm
he took it down because you all hurt his feelings.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Fuck me for going to lunch early.
June 11th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
It’s fixed.
You can go back to making fun of my big fat head now.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Needs more “Fuck it, we’ll do it live!”.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
You can go back to making fun of my big fat head now
Your head so fat if you drop a meatball off your fork it goes into orbit around it.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:05 pm

You do look oddly youthful. The haters are just envious because they don’t get carded when they buy beer. That’s how you know you’re starting to look your age, when the clerk at 7-11 doesn’t ask to see your ID.
And I bet you have to tell people how to pronounce your name all the time. “Actually, it’s MA-GARRY. No, emphasis on the first syllable… no, MA-GARRY, not MA-GRAY… no… fuck it, nevermind. Christ.”
June 11th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
No surprise this guy is a Vikings fan, years of watching his team’s repeated mediocrity has lead Drew to become a hateful person….I know these kinds of things because I took a psychology course in college once
June 11th, 2008 at 1:19 pm
That was… AWESOME!!! Well played drew.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:25 pm
And now we know how to pronounce your last name.
Ah, Slash noticed too.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:34 pm
Drew, you look like my sister’s ex-husband.
She’s gay now.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:34 pm
Loved the fake prep school accent!
What???
Oh jeez, sorry Mr Magarhenny.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
It looks like somebody could use a hug.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
that snapshot on mr. irrelevant is priceless
June 11th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
What is up with the turkey gobbler on that guys neck? If anything I would be mad if I was comcast and had to film that fat neck jiggling.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:49 pm
Nice job capturing the bugged-out look in Berman’s eyes. One part entitlement, one part assholery, and three parts scotch?
Speaking of dead-eyed ESPN douches, after watching the NBA Finals last night in HD, I have to say that Stuart Scott’s droopy, pink-colored eyes are really starting to creep me the fuck out. Either he’s using cranberry juice instead of Visine, or he’s prepping for his shows the way UM prepped for the Blog Show.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:49 pm
I heard Berman’s pissed about this. He’s gonna challenge Drew to a pie-eating contest and settle things once and for all.
June 11th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Needs more obscenities, but I liked it.
You’re 30 lbs, some male pattern baldness, and a ridiculously tired schtick away from being qualified to work on NFL Prime Time!
June 11th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
First time on TV and no necktie? Rather presumptuous, aren’t we?
June 11th, 2008 at 2:13 pm
[...] those that live in a cave, that is Drew of Kissing Suzy Kolber fame who reached mass stardom when called out by Buzz Bissinger on HBO’s Costas Now. Drew, [...]

According to the screencap, Drew was the fancy one for bothering to tuck in his shirt.
Well, lah-dee-dah, Your Majesty.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Drew had to take off his tie because it was covered in BBQ sauce.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
Drew….considering I’ve only seen you and Will Leitch on television, let me just say that you make Leitch look like Brad Pitt.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
Looks like JJ finally pushed Old Wade over the edge. If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times. You can only push fat people so far. Literally.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
Mouth region very reminiscent of Homsar. Raised by a cup of coffee!
June 11th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
He’s pissed off because the crew is moving the buffet.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
But where would this Quiz Bowl be held? Mrs. Magary’s basement? The Bissinger stables? Or a more neutral site?
June 11th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Someone has had one to many Pimms.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:56 pm
I want the Quiz Bowl, just not in HD.
/hopes the revolution is not televised.
June 11th, 2008 at 2:57 pm
I’ll take cheese burgers for $300, Alex.
June 11th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
JESUS!
June 11th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
What’re you cackling at, fatty? Too much pie, that’s your problem!
June 11th, 2008 at 3:15 pm
Semper Fudge
June 11th, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Drew, please do whatever you can to stay away from Rosie O’Donuts. I’m afraid if the two of you were to ever interact, the resulting grease fire would be catastrophic.
June 11th, 2008 at 3:19 pm
Is Drew going to Image Enhancement Camp this summer?
June 11th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
“All right, you balls of pan drippings, I want to see Crisco coming out of those pores! We’re not leaving until this Christmas ham gives me a pull-up!”
June 11th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
Spare me your euphemisms. It’s fat camp for Daddy’s Chubby Little Secret!
June 11th, 2008 at 3:58 pm
Where can I get some of those “duh, duh, duh’s?” Look like they work wonders.
June 11th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
The good news is that Drew helped the Blog Show land that prestigious Lane Bryant sponsorship.
June 11th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
He usually wears a muumuu.
June 11th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
By the way, welcome to NeverNeverland. The unicorns are real.
June 11th, 2008 at 4:28 pm
I heard Berman’s pissed about this. He’s gonna challenge Drew to a pie-eating contest and settle things once and for all.
Boom buh-bah-buh, Boom buh-bah-buh
June 11th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
So there IS a blogger dress code!
June 11th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
Dammit, now I have to wait until 11pm to see this video and comment. The suspense it killing me….arrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhhhvnldkszv, c
June 11th, 2008 at 4:52 pm
Choad breath.
June 11th, 2008 at 5:16 pm
In the movie version of his life, Drew will be played by Anthony Michael Hall circa 1985.
June 11th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
I can’t decide if that’s A.J. Soprano all grown up or an animated ham.
June 11th, 2008 at 7:13 pm
I heard Drew went to a restaurant and ate all the food in the restaurant and they had to close the restaurant.
June 11th, 2008 at 7:46 pm
All this vitriol would have been avoided by wearing a tie.
June 11th, 2008 at 10:39 pm
Drew’s a physical fatness buff.
June 11th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
Truf-fle shuf-fle, truf-fle shuf-fle!
June 11th, 2008 at 11:58 pm
Hi, sir. My name is Drew, but sometimes people call me Chunk.
June 12th, 2008 at 2:22 am
Seems Louie Anderson’s lost some weight.
June 12th, 2008 at 8:55 am
that’s not drew, it’s his alter-ego, Big Daddy Balls Deep.
our sweet angelic sports blogger would never use such vile language.
/insert dick joke
June 12th, 2008 at 10:29 am
It’s summer now…it’s OK to come outside for a wee bit of sun and physical activity. Don’t want to look like you’ve been hibernating all winter there Drew-eee.
June 12th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Hey Drew…do the truffle shuffle!
June 12th, 2008 at 4:31 pm
Drew you’re a lot less fat than I expected. :o)
