College Hoops Broadcaster Has Amazing Meltdown Over Bad Call by Refs

1. I need to give a shout-out to a follower of mine on that social media app that used to be called Twitter.

There I was Monday night sitting in my chair, watching the Panthers-Niners game when I decided to check my phone during a commercial like any reasonable human being would do.

And there it was. A message from @Heisman4Sayin that just said, “This is all time @JimmyTraina.”

I’ll be honest. When I get messages like this, I usually roll my eyes and say, “Sure,” because so few things live up to the hype. Well, @Heisman4Sayin wasn’t lying. This was all-time.

Creighton radio play-by-play guy John Bishop went ballistic after a blocking foul was called on a Bluejays player in their game against Baylor.

The result was 54 seconds of wonderful, riveting radio. I don’t want to give you all the lines, because I want you to do it fresh, but I have to drop one spoiler.

“He was straight up and down, he was set like the statue sitting out in front of in New York, New York,” had me doing a real LOL.

This is the play that caused Bishop to lose his mind. After watching it, his call was clearly justified.

2. Smart move here by ESPN. The network will air an NBA game, Pistons at Celtics, at 5 p.m. ET on Wednesday to kick off a tripleheader. Timberwolves-Thunder will tip at 7:30 p.m. while Rockets and Warriors will air at 10 p.m.

Given how many people are either off from work or home early on Wednesday, Thanksgiving Eve, a 5 p.m. tip makes so much sense.

Wednesday, @ESPNNBA continues its coverage of the '25-'26 #NBA season w/first-ever Thanksgiving Eve tripleheader

🏀4:30p ET | NBA Countdown
🏀5p ET | Pistons vs Celtics*
🏀7:30p ET | Thunder* vs Timberwolves*

5. I don’t think people understand how hilarious a trial between Jordon Hudson and Pablo Torre would be. In addition to being amusing, it would also be a content bonanza.

The fact that Hudson thinks she has a case is not only comical, but farcical. I love that her big beef is the possibility that the year of her birth may have reported inaccurately by one year.

Hi Jordon:

Any idea why your screenshot looks like this after you adjust the exposure and highlights?
