D3 Lacrosse Broadcast Puts On A Hot Mic Clinic With A Quick "She Didn't Know How To Take Wiener"
Over the weekend we had a big matchup in DIII lacrosse with #8 Gettysburg heading over to face Centennial Conference foe, Muhlenberg. As a proud alum of the Centennial Conference myself, I can say with full faith that I hate both of these teams. I spent 4 years getting my ass kicked by Gettysburg and all I got out of it was this sweet picture.
"Damn, Jordie. You must have been so sick back then" - all of you reading this right now before you go and check my career stats that you could count on one hand.
Aside from me being awesome, the Gettysburg vs Muhlenberg game was awesome as well. It was a 10-9 final with Gettysburg just sneaking out of there with the win in overtime. But the fellas on the broadcast clearly had more to discuss during halftime than just a great DIII conference lacrosse game.
Now a couple of things to note here--1) This is true DIII Grit. These guys don't have all the amenities and luxuries of guys calling DI games. They don't have commercial breaks during halftime. The camera is constantly rolling, and the mic is constantly hot. Guys calling DI games can do or say whatever they want whenever that ESPN+ screen goes to the shot of the building with a "commercial break in progress" sign up. But in DIII, you just have to power straight through halftime.
2) If nobody is going to be on the broadcast to defend this woman, then I guess I'll take that role right now. What if it's not her wiener taking abilities that are to be called into question here, but rather this dude's wiener giving abilities? Ever thought about that? It's all about making adjustments on the fly, battling through adversity, and being versatile. The true sign of a great leader is that whenever there's a finger being pointed, it's always directed at themselves first. Seems to me like a guy who doesn't want to take any accountability for a less-than-stellar performance over the weekend.
Anyways, I'm just glad to see DIII lacrosse still alive and thriving. DIII sports are the backbone of American society, and we'd cease to exist without them. Just maybe give the boys a "dump" button up there in the booth just to be safe.
