Doug Gottlieb Wants You to Know He Banged Your Mom

This is from Deadspin but I absolutely had to post it. The more the merrier.

On TV Doug Gottlieb reminds me of the spoiled little kid who has been given a position of leadership or prominence. He doesn't really care how you think he should be doing his job, he's going to do things his way no matter what. He writes articles even though he is not a writer, announces game (usually of the low-major variety) as though he was the only announcer and he makes statements with the conviction of a prolific message board member, from the safety of his studio, with all the world to hear and no direct interactions with his detractors. Plus, I think Tom Brennan cries himself to sleep every night. Some of Gottlieb's past transgressions:

-Said Brian Butch was the most overrated player in the Big Ten
-Said Big East teams, especially Syracuse, play "fraudulent" non-conference schedules.
-Suggested an official of an Indiana-Wisconsin game was crooked.

This was all in his first year as a broadcaster and, off the top of my head, I specifically remember him calling Kevin Durant a "chucker." He also stole a roommate's credit card his freshman year at Notre Dame and rang up a monster bill, was convicted of fraud and transferred. Well apparently Mr. Gottlieb doesn't believe his glass house should prevent him from chucking stones-- like the many errant jump shots that marked his career-- at helpless ESPN chatters, who are probably the future Doug Gottliebs of the world anyway.

Behold...

Mike Indiana: How did your mediocre basketball career prepare you for a mediocre broadcasting career?
Doug Gottlieb: (4:04 PM ET ) So your mediocre life can prepare you for a mediocre afterlife...and by the way, which one of us works for ESPN... hey and next time...when I you say 30 minutes or less....get here on time with my pizza.

John (Notre Dame): Doug, I lost my credit card, where were you last night?
SportsNation Doug Gottlieb: (4:27 PM ET ) Ask your mom.

Johns Mom (Notre Dame): GOTTLIEB I KNOW YOU STOLE MY SON'S CREDIT CARD!
SportsNation Doug Gottlieb: (4:34 PM ET ) Ten years ago I made a mistake...and payed for it...18 years ago YOU WERE your parents mistake and they are still paying for it.

I love how he saw these kids ripping on him and POSTED THE QUESTIONS! I mean, he screens all the entries! That means he saw the questions that put his entire career on blast and absolutely couldn't resist responding with the always mature "I banged your mom,"you'll deliver my pizza" and "you were a mistake" busts. Just wonderful.
