The Sterling Decision: Impact On Televison

((HT: Awful Announcing/TSN2/NBA))

Admittedly, it is a lot easier for sideline talent to interject themselves into the situations they're reporting on...

Last night, the HQ will admit that is took David Aldridge a lot of guts to talk about how the impact of the Donald Sterling banishment hit his family right in the gut...

Here's his introduction from last night's Clippers-Warriors game...

Spurs Boss Not A Fan Of Benfica Boss

((HT: SkySports))

Benfica was better than Spurs in the first leg of their Europa League Round-of-16 match-up at White Hart Lane...

Not in dispute...

But what is up in conversation are the antics of Benfica manager Jorge Jesus during the match itself...
Like this exchange after the third Benfica goal...


Current Spurs caretaker manager Tim Sherwood was not happy post-match as he told Sky:

"I thought his team were very good and showed a lot of class - it's just a shame he didn't," Sherwood said.

"In the first two minutes, he was coming over to the fourth official saying I was stepping in his box.

"He doesn't mind himself, does he, to be fair? Waving goodbye like that [with three fingers]? It lacks class. Why would anyone do that?

"He's got a good side, of course he has, but, nah, not for me thank you. I have no intention of speaking to him."


Jesus, when asked said he was referring to his goal scorer Luisao- even if his player wears the number 4...

Sherwood may still have his locker room, if you believe what Sandro said this week, but he may only have it for another nine Premier League games or so...
