3 incredibly stupid things said on the broadcast yesterday

[nittany dave]

1. Mark May said Penn State players are immature. If he really wants to see immature, he can look no further than the coach of his alma mater, Nardouchey.
2. Immediately after May made his immature comment, Mack Brown, said, "Yes, everyone was telling Franklin how good PSU looked last week as they entered the stadium today." HELLO, this was an away game! While very decent amount of PSU fans in West Lafayette, this wasn't Beaver Stadium.
3. The topper. Color guy, as the game became blowout in 4th quarter, said "the Purdue program had been through a lot." IS THIS GUY REALLY THAT DUMB? Outside of SMU when they got the death penalty, and Marshall when almost the entire team was killed in the 1970 plane crash, NO PROGRAM HAS BEEN THROUGH AS MUCH AS PENN STATE!

When I meet someone I don't like I think of Mark May and realize that maybe they aren't too bad after all.

Actually Mack Brown made his comment THEN Mark May made his immature comment, implying that they were immature because the players were flat and not playing to the intensity level that they had played to the week before against tOSU.

Actually May's comment simply showed (again) his own immaturity, taking pot shots at PSU whenever he has a chance. I honestly don't recall ever hearing him say something nice about PSU. Somewhere he must have, but I probably fainted when I heard it and didn't remember it through my concussion protocol.

They were saying that SQ 81 yard td run was the longest td run for PSU since Larry Johnson in 2002, If I am not mistaken Bill Belton had like a 98 or 99 yard run two years ago against IU.

I'm going to have to find a way to flag threads containing the phrase"Mark May says." I click whenever he's on the tube just because I refuse to expose myself to idiots.

I said the exact same thing.
93 yards vs. IU in 2014.
Geez, do your research

Belton TD 92 yards, according to E$PN online recap. Go figure.

Other interesting tidbits from the broadcast;

- #2 Stevens guilty of pass interference
- Big drop off from Cabinda to Smith. Next play interception.

To credit the announcers.....very hard to do.....they did make fun of themselves what with the timing of Smith's interception coming seconds after them making the drop-off comment.

Mowins said Franklin was from Longhorn. L-a-n-g-h-o-r-n-e: Longhorn.

Ah. This was mentioned in my Neshaminy thread, apropos of nothing.

I know that. As a Langhorne boy in Longhorn country, I thought it belonged on this thread of stupid comments.

Understood. It got a big laugh out of me.

I was out of town and away from the television broadcast during the first thee quarters. Had to listen to the Purdue announcing team on satellite radio. At halftime they were saying that going into the game they thought Purdue could win, and now they know it. Care to edit that fellas?

Had her mind in the gutter.

I wouldn't wish Mark May on my worst enemy.

Who is, ironically, Mark May
