ESPN Commenters Mostly Thrilled With Mike Greenberg & Mike Gangnam Style Video

All, ESPN, Music, Video Stephen Douglas October 31st. 2012, 11:15am

Mike & Mike are the lovable buffoons (one is fat, the other is effeminate!) of ESPN Radio. Since it is almost November, they decided it was time to do a topical Gangnam Style parody video. They officially became the last people to do so. We’re done here. Goodbye Psy. We’ll always have the early Fall of 2012.

Before we go, let’s see how the ESPN commenters are handling this. I bet it is spectacular.

Yup, these are their commenters.

So, other than the guy who said “Just when I thought it was impossible to hate you more” ESPN commenters are all idiots? Praise Zeus that WE have TBL for sagacious discourse of matters both social and sporting.

I listen to 5 non-consecutive minutes of Mike and Mike each morning (note to ESPN suits, I’m in your 18-40 demographic, have a 45 minute commute and really like sports) and they seemed extremely pleased with some video this morning. I had no idea what they were talking about until now.
One guy is like “hey give me beer and hotdogs, amirite?” and the other guy is all “I’d prefer the quiche and champagne, fatso!”

Parody in sports is good. That’s why NFL is so successful. Everyone has a shot.

You guys do realize that for most non-26 year olds, who don’t frequent blogs all day while they should be working (and subsequently bitching about lack of pay) this IS topical.

Had to get a new wedge last week. Went in with a plan for JUST a 58, walked out with a 52 as well. I am on a strict “leftovers” diet for the rest of the year.

realized I had a slight wrist roll on my gap wedge shots that was causing some issues there; corrected it and started chipping great, only to get greedy and start trying to fly everything right at the hole

For the golfers, I would like to take up this sport. Do you have recommendations for clubs or such. Obviously, I would like to stay on the lower end of the price spectrum until I am sure that I will stick with it.

black douglas…check out globalgolf.com and 2ndswing.com for used clubs.
if i were you, id look at a used ping g5/10/15 driver and irons, a 20* hybrid and a 56* sand wedge. should be all you need to get started. should be able to find a driver for $50, irons for $200ish, wedge and hybrid for $100 in decent shape.

Who is way more hip than the people who don’t realize Gangnam Style is past its prime? People who write blog posts about how funny it is that some people don’t yet realize that Gangnam Style is past its prime.
Mike & Mike is a mainstream show, not exclusively aimed at affluent east coast smart allecks who are already satisfied with the amount of sarcastic dancing they have already gotten out of Gangnam Style. Not everyone prefers their sports news with a healthy dose of “I am smarter than you.”

agreed this was an awesome ‘parity.’
Maybe I’m being unfair… but if someone posts a comment like this, I automatically assume whatever they have to say is moronic and I refuse to read onward. And that goes for people here as well.
I have a friend who does some hiring, and every once in a while I’ll look at the applications, and have her throw out anything without a cover page, or with any punctuation/grammar errors. I assume that for most people here, it’s a lack of caring because it’s the internet and not a lack of education, but I do wish people cared more about the words and context associated with their names and output.
Yes, I judge people on usage and grammar. Even on the internet.

I will ignore a resume without a cover page. If it’s an email (which many are, and that’s okay), at least need a nice format “dear ___, I want this job, why i want this job; xoxo, WWoS” with a resume ATTACHED, not copy-pasted.

get the clubs first and then they can be fit to you by a club guy…or check out ping’s website for their color code and get the irons with that dot.
take it slow tho…really, youd be fine with just irons, a wedge and a putter at first.
