Brent Musburger Calls Holly Rowe “Smokin’”

Holly Rowe, ESPN
Brent Musburger was calling was calling his first game on ESPN since making headlines during last week's BCS national title game for ogling Webb, the girlfriend of Alabama quarterback A.J. McCarron. According to USA Today, he made it through almost all of Monday's Kansas basketball victory over Baylor without referencing the incident or alluding to his network's apology for the comments.

Then, as he launched into his usual sign-off, Musburger dropped an unexpected, jaw-dropping line.

"Once again, your final score, Kansas 61, Baylor 44," Musburger said in the manner he has hundreds of times before. "Coming up next, SportsCenter. For Fran Franschilla and Holly Rowe, who was really smokin' tonight, I want to say 'so long from Lawrence.'"

There was extra emphasis on the "really smoking," like he wanted to make sure you heard him.



Tom's Take: Didya know Musburger's middle name is "Woody"?
