ESPN Holly Rowe shoves reporter to get interview with brady Hoke

A columnist being petty? Say it ain't so.

 

Maybe, but I think that if this guy was going to be a dick in order to get his story, he shouldn't have been surprised when others were dicks to him. And not once, but twice -first barging in and being careless and hitting people, and then demanding that a competitor share his audio? No, fuck him. What goes around comes around.

 

Does anyone have proof Rowe said anything at all, other than something like "Sorry, I gotta get in here"?

Rowe's job is to get the first interview with the coach or star player. TV doesn't wait for her. She probably has about five seconds to get there and be ready when the camera goes live. She has ever right to push her way in, and I even applaud her for doing that. And I'm a old newspaper fart!

And to anyone who would bring Rowe's appearance into question, man are you a jerk.

 

You just gotta let Holly be Holly.

 

Rubb'n is Rac'n and Holly Rowe is the Intimidator of sideline report'n!

 

As long as ESPN continues to put out eye candy sideline reporters to ask inane questions of coaches then we have every right to question their appearance. It cuts both ways.

 

I was thinking the same thing. We didn't put out the call for the cutest pixies to grab coaches at halftime.

 

And Deadspin comes up with a gem...

Clay Travis has a caption contest going for the event:

1. "Bitch, I'll cut you."

2. "I'm on Hoke like frosting on cake. And I know cake. And frosting."

3. (Says nothing, pretends other girl is Erin Andrews.)

4. "Look out, sweetheart."

(RIP, Ron Franklin's career).

5. "I am NOT going back to the Daily Utah Chronicle!"

6. Per her wikipedia page right now: "Holly is also highly versed in MMA fighting, as was demonstrated during a post game interview at the 2012 Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, in which Holly can clearly be seen giving another female reporter a stiff forearm to the chest region followed up by the "Honey Badger Don't Give A SH**" look."

7. "I've been flashing my boobs in New Orleans since 1986. I'm making Girls Gone Wild this year. No one is stopping me."

8. "After fifteen years of interviewing men thinner than me, you think I'm letting you get the fat coach and the fat kicker first. Nun-uh."

9. "I am NOT getting demoted to the Longhorn Network, you harpy."

10. "I've been in make-up since Sunday. It's go-time."

11. "You think that was bad, you should see what I did to Bruce Feldman back in '99."

12. "They fed me, and it's after midnight. Look out, twiggy."

13. "Hunny, you just flew coach from Ypsilanti, make way for first class."

14. "I'm NOT wearing jeans and a beret on the X-Games."

15. "I call my elbow, 'the Sandusky.' You do NOT want to know why."

 

I respectfully don't get what you're saying. First off, if every single female announcer had previously worked as a model, it is still classless to take a jab at Rowe's appearance. Actually, your argument makes you sound like a hypocrite.

Not all announcers on ESPN are "eye candy." And the last time I looked, the producers doing the hiring are the ones you should be ripping, not the people doing their jobs to the best of their ability.

 

+1 for the ECW reference.

OH MY GOOOOOD!!!!!!

 

At the end of tonight's Texas A&M-Missouri game, Musberger used this incident to refer to her as "Holly Badger." GOD DAMN IT!!!
