Hot Quarterbacks Might Not Want Anything to Do With Garcia After That One
Not a whole lot of the Matron Saint tonight, but there were a number of delightful announcer gaffes to go along with 3,000 rushing yards by the Panthers. And while the run game was dominant, the Carolina fan souvenir cup passing game was on-target when aimed at Steve Young.
Don’t forget the KSK Kares Kharity Drive for Fisher House. Click here to donate.
Not too many amusing crowd shots in this one, probably because you have to give a shit about your team to act stupid in support of them. Still, the Freddy costume is one of the more puzzling we’ve seen on Monday nights this year. If nothing else, he may have served as a chilling reminder not to doze off during this game.
Wigs of any sort seem to be big among Panthers fans. “Carolina” blue ones, sparkly ones, generic weaves, you name it and Carolina fans will rock it in Bank of America Stadium. And the painted whiskers aren’t anymore alluring on an overweigh hausfrau than they are on any number of creepy man-children.

Carolina Freddy was competing with Nawlins Master Chief for Most Non Sequitur Costume in the NFC South

Master Chief gets bonus points for caring to dress up that much and be sitting in what looks like the fucking nosebleeds.

That worthless piece of shit Jaworski actually said National Football Conference instead of NFC at one point.
That bag of shit can eat a stack of Satan’s donkey dicks. I hate him worse than VD, emo kids and the Chinese, put together. It’s not bad enough that football has to be the adjective for every goddamn noun on the screen and that the NFL can never just be the NFL! Ihatehimihatehimihatehim!
Goddammit, he sucks.
How… someone please explain to me how… how can you have a booth which includes Kornheiser and Tony’s somehow NOT the worst voice in it. Tirico must cry himself to sleep every Monday night with visions of The Palace at Auburn Hills as his only comfort.
…
because he’s from Detroit, you see.

Hot….quarterbacks…
So I didn’t imagine it…

the Carolina fan souvenir cup passing game was on-target when aimed at Steve Young……what is the accident?
December 9th, 2008 at 6:08 am
I think Tirico has reached the breaking point with Jaws and Korny. Did anybody else notice how at certain points in the game one of the two color guys were in the midst of some long-winded “observation” and he’d just talk right over them until they shut up?
Between the worst commentary team ever and the fact Steve Young looks like he’s ready to yell “What the fuck are you talking about??” to Emmitt at least twice per show, MNF is at least amusing in a trainwreck way. And here I thought it’d never get better than Kornheiser and Theisman throwing barbs at each other all night…

Kornheiser: “We’re witnessing history here. And I don’t mean in the history of the league, but the history of today.” Okay, you can’t change the definition of the word. the past DOES NOT mean the fucking present. FUCK

I can’t tell from the screenshot. Is Carolina Freddy at least wearing a Rae Carruth jersey? Cause then it would have some relevance.

“because he’s from Detroit, you see.”
Mike Tirico is Jerome Bettis?

I for one love how the Cover It Live “typing sound” EXPLODED after Tony made that remark…

@Optimus: What about the history of the future?
December 9th, 2008 at 10:59 am
You wouldn’t believe how the game improves without commentators.
And I’m interested in the history of forever.

You just blew my mind.

Dear KSK,
No animated gif of the Stewart touchdown mirror dance?
December 9th, 2008 at 11:27 am
What the fuck is it with these people and painted whiskers? Is there a clown making balloon animals at Panthers games?
December 9th, 2008 at 11:38 am
I can’t believe I watched the finale of Boston Legal instead of this….no wait I can.

@ Colts and Hoosiers Fan: Is that the show where William Shatner is gay? I can believe that too.

Not to be a jackass, but there is an actual reason for the Freddy costume. In pregame interviews with the Charlotte media, Jon Gruden described Steve Smith as “like Freddy Kreuger” because he “gives me nightmares.” So there you go. A fan decided to wear a Freddy costume along with a Steve Smith jersey. What a hick, right?!?

It would have helped if ESPN had clarified on the matter.
