Jeez, Erin Andrews, get off your high horse

Did you know that Erin Andrews hasn't been on TV since her "incident" where she was hardly visible through blurry lines, yet was naked and then the Internet pounced and thus there was an "incident?" She hasn't. Cause and effect, too. That seems a bit unnecessary.

Yet Andrews recently went on Oprah to talk about this horrible incident where she was hardly visible through blurry lines and will try to put this behind her.

ESPN reporter Erin Andrews said in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that having secretly videotaped nude footage of her distributed on the Internet was a "nightmare."

Scary. Like that dream where you're falling. Or being chased. Or where you have to pull the trigger to shoot the bad guy but you don't have the strength to pull the trigger because you're in REM sleep. Or the dream where you're naked in public...Oh. Hmm.

Andrews also tells Winfrey she "opened up the computer [and] could feel my heart pounding."

Who knows who may have seen the video of her as she was hardly visible through blurry lines? What if her dad saw it? Oh no!

Andrews will be working on air Thursday night for the first time since the video became widespread news. She'll be the sideline reporter for ESPN's broadcast of South Carolina at North Carolina State.

Ooh, South Carolina vs. NC State. Could be OK. What will Spurrier have up his leave? NC State hasn't been good in a while. Who are we kidding? This game isn't going to be very good at all. Probably will try to get in some Netflix instead. Or maybe read a book. Reading books is way underrated, yet we feel people -- including us -- don't do it enough. There are some very good books out there. We should check them out. But the ones Oprah suggests are bullshit. Don't listen to her.

Anyways, Andrews has every right to file lawsuits and do legal stuff with lawyers and courts and Judge Judy, but it's over, you could hardly make out a boob, and nobody really cares anymore. Shouldn't we be making a bigger deal out of the fact that you're dating David Wright? Conflict of interest, man.

[Unrelated: We were sent some awesome sports keychains from Wholesale Keychains. They were awesome in a keychain kind of way. Whatever that means.]

  1. She came back on Oprah? The only way it could smell more like an inside job is if they advertised it.

    I think the story line is, what will the 'cocks do to EA?

    That would explain Wright's power outage this season. The guy's only hitting home runs in the bedroom. WTF's he doing dating a 31 year-old anyway? Has this fuck learned nothing from Jeter?

  2. I like to think that Papa Andrews saw the video because everyday he googles "Erin Andrews Nude Pictures".

    This video was outstanding due to EA's little mini-squats. Excellent.

  3. At first I felt sorry for her, but with her going on Oprah, I think she is stirring the pot...

    Shit, I forgot about the video...in general, people have moved on...seems like she wants to keep this in the news...

    Bad move on her part!!

    I agree with rstiles....It was a dead issue previously 0 was on the net for 4 months and no one knew about..She goes public a month ago and everybody and their brother gets a peek at the goods...Shes off tv for a month and it dies down and now shes on Oprah - I used to defend her boorish behavior in the past - I cant now.....

    When did it become public knowledge that shes banging D. Wright?

  5. A couple books that got me back into reading lately are "Tales from the Dugout" by Mike Shannon, which is a collection of short stories and anecdotes about baseball players through the years. He followed it up with "Tales from the Ballpark" which is also great.

    The other was "Cosell" by Howard himself. It's a collection of really interesting first hand stories about all sorts of shit like the Munich Olympics, the Rise and fall of Ali, Jackie Robinson, Lombardi, etc. It was written in the early 70's, so I'm not sure how easy it'd be to find... I just stumbled across it in a store one day.

  6. We can all agree this was staged, right? A tape like the video Ocean's crew made of Terry Benedict's vault.

  7. There are too many examples of celebrities doing these videos to enhance their flailing careers or to launch them, to completely rule out the fact that Erin was aware of what was going on. I would like to think that she was genuinely taken advantage of, and if she was I feel bad for her. But, I'm still not convinced that she didn't know this "mystery" person was taping her.
