    He actually plugged the NBA's online store. On air. He held up the championship shirt and cap, and it would have been seen if not for a clip.

    We still heard him saying it was available at nbastore.com.

    Cuz, that's not cool.

    Gee, I don't know, because ESPN has a contract with the NBA?

    A contract is one thing, but pimping their stuff? I've never seen an anchor do that, contract or not.

    Because ESPN is on the cutting edge of sports marketing and cross promotion, and really doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks, they're going to do it anyway.
    Am looking forward to the lame defense by the suits in this quarter's ombudsman column

    He could take his glass eye out and polish it on the air and it would surprise me less than this move would.
