Late Sunday Links

I’m in a bit of a work jam so let me give you some linkage on this late Sunday evening on the East coast.

Neil Best of Newsday embeds the last 38.1 seconds of Saturday’s Cal-UCLA game in which Brent Musberger seemed to be oblivious to the Bruins’ winning shot which came from behind the backboard and had to have Steve Lavin point out what happened. Neil also recaps what occured when WFAN’s Mike Francesca went beserk on a producer who would not stop talking into his headset.

The LAist blog goes over the two controversies from the Cal-UCLA game including that over the backboard shot.

The Eye on Sports Media blog remembers University of North Carolina student President Eve Carson who was killed in a carjacking last week.

Ray Frager of the Baltimore Sun writes in his Medium Well blog about Suzy Kolber giving birth and the infamous “Speedo Guy” caught by ESPN cameras at the North Carolina-Duke game.

And the AOL Fanhouse blog has the video of “Speedo Guy” doing the crotch chop gesture on ESPN.

David James of KUTV in Salt Lake City, UT wonders now that the mtn. will be on DirecTV this fall, will the channel actually go out and televise all Mountain West Conference games instead cherrypicking a select few to air.

Bob Larson Tennis News says FSN will be the new home of the Indian Wells tournament coming up later this month.

Those are the links for tonight.
