    Jim Gray: once a douchebag, always a douchebag


    I'm starting to wonder, is there an on-going bet between the producers of different sports channels to see who can hire the most annoying assholes to put in front of the camera? Like did all the bigwigs at ESPN, CBS, ABC, and NBC get together some years ago and come up with a "Dinner for Schmucks" style Sports Reporters contest?

    It seems like every day there's some athlete getting a microphone jabbed in his face by some schmuck reporter I just want to haul off and beat the shit out of. Anyone else feel the same?

    Let's take a poll............

              Jim Gray is nothing more than a pencil-necked, nonathletic douche bag that makes himself feel better by ridiculing real athletes. Ironically,he has been sucking Tiger Woods dick till the end.He takes up for him no matter what he does. Jim Gray, go to hell.

                Write in votes acceptable. That's two for Buck.

                I didn't put Buck on the list because I was thinking more of the in game reporters who interview players with stupid questions rather than play by play guys. There are probably more play by play the forum would rather punch than not. Jimmy Dykes, Mike Patrick, Len Elmore, Dick Vitale, Dan Shulman, Mike Tirico, Joe Theisman, etc.

                Maybe when March Madness hits I'll do another in honor of Billy Packer who I've always envisioned strangling with a microphone cord.

                    Jim Gray is easily the worst. He is a condescending prick.

                        I met Mike Lupica at a restaurant during the Super Bowl. He's literally about 5'2. Almost like a dwarf. Really nice guy, though.

                          Lupica is a liberal douche

                          But consider this write-in vote number 3 for Buck

                          You know where that guy is if he wasn't his dad's son? Who gives a fukk? But it wouldn't be ruining any sports event he announces...

                                  I just wonder why he still gets gigs? I say 50% of the trash Lebron gets heaped on him from his "SouthBeach" show was because of this ass monkey

                                    After watching that Pete Rose interview, I'd like to change my vote to Jim Gray.

                                          that crap he pulled with DJ is bush league. My vote went to Selena Roberts though.... AU alum who seemingly loves to bash AU.

                                                  Well here's a reason if you need one.....

                                                  I remember right after Arizona lost the NCAA title game to Duke in '01 he was interviewing Lute Olson outside the locker room, (and this was the season when Lute's wife died of cancer), now I'd never really liked Olson or Arizona, but Katz stands there and asks, I swear to God I'm not making this up, he stands there and asks Lute if he felt like he and the team let his dead wife down for losing the game.

                                                  Now how in the fukking hell can you possibly even be that much of a shithead to come up with that type of question? And then just spring it on a guy on national television when he's in the midst of one of the most gut-wrenching and emotionally fragile moments of his life?

                                                  The fact that Lute was capable of restraining himself from beating Katz to death right there on the spot has made me a fan of his ever since

                                                  Katz is just a goofier version of Jim Gray. I hate them both. I hate Lupica because he's more of a sniveling little shit, whereas Katz and Gray are just assholes with an incredibly over-inflated sense of their self-importance.

                                                  I swear I think Jim Gray must have polaroids of all the sports network CEO's gang raping baby seals or something, because there is no way that asshole should still be on television.
                                                  No more of that talk, or I'll put the leeches on you.
