ESPN analyst curses on 'Monday Night Football,' apologizes - Shutdown Corner ... - 3 views

ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski momentarily forgot he was calling a football game to millions of viewers when he threw in a casual curse word during a breakdown of a replay on "Monday Night Football."
-
"That's one Chad [Henne] would love to have back," Jaworski said. "He knew he had the one-on-one matchup going down the right sideline. "S---, you have to get rid of this ball just a split-second quicker."

We accept your apology, Jaws. You're forgiven, especially because sitting in a booth with Jon Gruden all night could make even the most straitlaced man drop a few curse words.

The verbal goof came late in the game after Miami Dolphins quarterback Chad Henne(notes) overthrew Brandon Marshall(notes) in the end zone.

What I love about this is that there was no stumbling, no backtracking in the dropping of the s-word; Jaws just said it casually, like it wasn't a big deal. He was probably imagining he was breaking down film in a hotel room, talking to whoever else was with him.

Importance-It's important because it violates the rules of what you can or cannot say over the air. Human Interest-Most people would find it interesting because they probably didn't notice either until he apologized for it. Unusual Nature/Conflict-Some people might get offended by it though, you can never tell what people are gonna find insulting. Special Interest- This doesn't happen very often so I'm sure people will find this amusing.
