Hey, look everybody. It's two sports anchors, and that's a good break for us, because we're about to do a sports show.
Sarcasm, thy name is Dana.
“The Apology” · Season 1, Episode 2
In this episode: Casey McCall (2), Dan Rydell (1), Dana Whitaker (1), Jeremy Goodwin (1)
I have a younger brother named Sam. Sam's a genius. I mean, literally. As a kid, he tested off the charts. The first computer I ever had, he built from a kit he bought with money he earned tutoring other kids in math. He's energetic and articulate, curious and funny. A great source of pride to our parents. And there's no doubt that he'd be living a great life right now, except for that he's dead. Because when you're fourteen years old, all you ever really wanna be when you grow up is your sixteen-year-old brother. And in my case, that meant smoking a lot of dope. The day I went off to college was the day that Sam got his driver's license. And he celebrated by taking a drive with some of his friends. Drunk and high as a paper kite. He never saw the red light that he ran. And he probably never saw the eighteen-wheel truck that put him into the side of a brick bank, either. That was eleven years ago tonight. And I just wanted to say I'm sorry, Sam. You deserved better in my hands. And I apologize.
You should try making it shorter.
What's the key?
In this case?
Yeah.
Making it a lot shorter.
I can't imagine what i'd cut.
Well, you start off with Cedric, the leadoff batter, at the top of the first inning, despite the fact that nobody scored until the 5th inning.
There's action beyond scoring.
Yeah, but Cedric grounded out to the short stop and was thrown out at first by quite a large margin.
Yeah.
Well, that is what is called a routine ground ball. In your search for things that are newsworthy, let the word 'routine' serve as a danger sign.
