ESPN felt it necessary to issue a brief statement addressing Brent Musburger’s excessively creepy horndoggery when commenting upon the attractiveness of Katherine Webb, the girlfriend of Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback AJ McCarron, during the BCS National Championship Game. Here's ESPN’s statement on the awkward event, courtesy of the reporting by Sports Business Journal Media Reporter, John Ourand, via his Twitter account...
quote: “We always try to capture interesting storylines and the relationship between an Auburn grad who is Miss Alabama and the current Alabama quarterback certainly met that test. However, we apologize that the commentary in this instance went too far and Brent understands that.”
Early in the 4th quarter of the Alabama vs Michigan college football on Saturday night the camera cut to Brent Musburger and Kirk Herbstreit in the booth as Musburger started to talk about the dominating performance by Alabama. Out of nowhere, the audio cutout. After a few seconds of silence, Musburger turns to Herbstreit while barely holding back his laughter and says, “pick a SEC team to play for the National Championship.” What did Musburger say?
