Nice of them to do that- I was curious at the time what actually happened there
Good on them
Why did that one lady appear to be barking at her
Admitting when you’re wrong should be celebrated
That’s nice they said this because the optics were not good for that woman.
But Grady is not gonna apologize for the racist “random white guy” comment from a few games ago? Got it
Classy move by the announcers! Great W tonight following the kindness.
I fucking love this. Professionalism like this is so hard to come by nowadays. Professionalism isnt about acting perfect with class 24/7, it’s about holding yourself accountable when you mess up, owning it and being better next time. Shoutout Alan Horton and Jim Pete
Nothing for me will ever beat when Jim Kaat live on air decided to refer to a certain Yankees pitcher as ‘Nestor, the molester.’
Lmao i thought it was funny. They shouldn’t have felt the need to apologize for that. Without context it is reasonable to be annoyed that she didn’t hand the jersey to the kid behind her.
it was weird in real time. very easy to sweep it under the rug, but they didn’t, and they gave her due flowers. mn nice, and i love it.
What exactly did I miss here?
Am I completely making this up, or did Ant give the jersey to that woman and not the kid because she was wearing a shirt from “Matilda” – his favorite movie?
feels weird seeing people actually be professional and take accountability for their actions.
appreciate them being a class act
Badass actually.
I know people think it was an honest mistake or an easy mistake but I legitimately found it so awkward that I changed the channel. They really did project a lot of nonsense into the situation.
This was a Washington DC game and those were millionaire seats. I knew nothing about those people other than that. Once you realize anyone in THOSE seats could easily afford to buy thier kid literally any sports memorabilia they wanted, game worn or otherwise. And a simple read of the woman who honestly didn’t look like she belonged there. She looked too poor to be in those seats, a black graphic t shirt and she wasn’t rich enough to afford ozempic. Anyway, I find it super awkward when rich people in thier bubble shame and bully poor people. So much so I changed the channel.
All in all it felt super weird how long they lingered on that whole thing lol.
Happy to see people talking favorably about this here. On Twitter people were being jackasses. They messed up, that lady probably got a lot of flak, it’s very nice and professional of them to come out and try to clear the air.
Lol. What a world
We are so cooked when Grady leaves us. Jim is fine when he’s with Grady, but Alan and Jim are unbearable when they’re together. They’re both so biased and constantly cross the line between supporting the wolves and just denigrating the other team. Jim basically thinks we don’t commit any fouls ever. Alan on the other hand is so negative about opposing teams and players it’s just grating to listen to. I remember he basically wouldn’t stop talking about what a terrible player Russell Westbrook was once this season, bro thats a future first ballot HOFer, just hype up your team and call the game.
Man I love Grady, we didn’t realize just how good we had it till it’s almost gone.
