Griese suspended over ‘taco’ remark
Do you want that hard or soft?
Bob Griese is joining the ranks of ESPN analysts who are told to stay home for a while. Griese made an off-color remark during the Minnesota vs Ohio State college football game about Juan Pablo Montoya.
During ESPN’s broadcast of the Minnesota-Ohio State game Saturday, a graphic was shown listing the top five drivers in NASCAR’s points race. Fellow analyst Chris Spielman asked where was Montoya, who is Colombian.
Griese replied he was “out having a taco.”
It was a quick comment made in which he apologized several times throughout the coverage, but it looks like it was too little too late. I guess you would think that someone who has this much experience calling games and being on air would realize that you can’t say things like that. Maybe because of his vast experience he is so comfortable that he forgets where he is, because I know if they mic’d me up for 3 hours there is no way I would ever be asked to come back..
SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE!!!!
