Just When you think You've Seen it all!


Too Funny to be True (But it is!)


Okay, as much as I like to make fun of the 4-Letter word (ESPN), I'm not really sure that there is anything that I can say that will top this:



Yes, your eyes aren't decieving you...IT'S ESPN...THE MIC!

Check it out at Toys 'r Us right here

Here is a line from the product description:

"The ESPN Sportscaster Microphone lets you make the calls, and announce the game! Three modes for sounds of the game: Football, Baseball & Basketball! Announcer tips, tricks, and built-in calls from SportsCenter anchor Steve Levy! "

Okay, you really can't make up stuff like this. Steve Levy is a perfectly serviceable ESPN announcer, but I'm guessing there isn't a rush of people that want to grow up to be just like him or for that matter know who he is. (Maybe I'm wrong) Though I suppose he is a better choice than say Cindy Brunson.

I'm not really sure exactly what a kid would do with an item like this other than annoy the hell out of anyone within earshot. But then again, kids like to do that. And so do bloggers, so buy one for all of your blogging friends (just kidding).

To quote from our friends at Sports Illustrated: "This Weeks sign that the Apocolypse is Upon us". I can't say it any better!

((thanks again Awful Announcing for uncovering this deep, dark secret))
