Try And Sell One Of Those On The Black Market
((HT:WSVN-TV))
It's not very day the HQ does a story like this one...
For those of us who work in live event television, we need to function with one of those 40 to 50 feet long that has a lot of cameras, bells and other associated whistles, and the folks that go with it.
The NFL Network is in Miami getting ready to do the Dolphins-Bills game and all the other ancillary programs that go with Thursday Night Football.
But, the folks at NEP are responsible for the television production truck. The only problem is that the truck that was doing all the lion's share of the work was lifted from a gated hotel.
Nicole Linsalata is outside the hotel with the story of something you can't hide or hock.

Is Former NFL Safety Darren Sharper a Serial Rapist?
((ht: latimes.com))
What started out as two rape charges may now be seven.
Former NFL safety Darren Sharper, also an NFL Network football analyst is facing multiple rape charges in four different states.
Sharper, who was charged Friday with 2 charges of rape and 5 charges involving drugging in Los Angeles, is now facing a different kind of heat on Saturday as the LA County D.A's office now have more alleged victims coming forward.
They say Sharper is now suspected of at least 7 rapes and of drugging at least 11 people in four states.
Which by most descriptions, would make him a serial rapist.
According to the reports, all the incidents happened between September of 2013 and January of this year.
Note--Sharper is only officially charged with the two L.A cases. Charges in New Orleans, Tempe, Arizona and Las Vegas have not been filed.

Sharper, who's 38-years old, played on the 2009 Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints team and has been suspended from his NFL Network job. He's out of jail on a $200K bond and had to forfeit his passport.

"Thursday Night Football" On CBS
[HT: NFL.com]
The NFL opened up bids for networks to partner with the NFL Network for it's created franchise "Thursday Night Football."
We have a winner. It's CBS.
"We are very pleased to build on our outstanding partnership with the NFL by expanding our coverage to Thursday nights," Les Moonves, president and CEO of CBS corp. said. "CBS is a premium content company and the NFL represents the best premium content there is. I look forward to all this new deal will do for us not only on Thursday nights, but across our entire schedule."
"NFL Network built Thursday into a night for NFL fans," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said. "Our goal is to bring these games to more fans on broadcast television with unprecedented promotion and visibility for 'Thursday Night Football' on CBS."
With CBS in the mix for "Thursday Night Football" you will get more of Jim Nantz and Phil Simms, CBS's #1 team will call the Thursday Night games.
Brad Nessler was solid during the games but Mike Mayock was outstanding. Mayock needs a regular NFL gig.
CBS will produce the games however the network will only air the first eight games. The NFL Network will air the last eight games on the season and two Saturday games leading up to the playoffs.
You won't get J.B. (James Brown) Dan Marino, Boomer Esiason or Shannon Sharpe on Thursday night. NFL Network hosts and analyst will be used for pregame and halftime.
All we can say in the OSG HQ is "Thank God more football."

Brad Nessler Had To Go...
((HT: Awful Announcing))
The Number One By-Law The HQ has always adhered to in the television bid-ness is "Always Act Like Your Mic Is Hot..."
We learned at an early age that you never cuss and you never say anything you don't want to go over the air in a normal circumstance until you're off the air entirely...
A dude we really admire in the booth, Brad Nessler, fell victim to the hot mic last night before the Pats-Jets game...
But when you gotta go, you gotta go... and that will never change...

Brandon Marshall and Warren Sapp feud gets nasty
Whoa now! Settle down boys.
It appears NFL Network analyst and former Pro Bowl defensive tackle Warren Sapp and Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall don't like each other.
Apparently on Friday, Sapp went on the Dan Patrick show and tore into Marshall about comments allegedly made towards Shannon and Sterling Sharpe. Sapp accused Marshall of not respecting his elders (polite version) and called him several un-polite names in the process included "Retarded".
Marshall appears to have gotten wind of Sapp's comments. And was none too pleased. He voiced his thoughts on Mr. Sapp via YouTube. They were personal....and they were not very complementary.
Okay now.
Reports say Sapp is now aware of Marshall's rebuttal and is angry enough to threaten to kick Marshall's ass.
We are guessing that Sapp's employer, the NFL Network will not pleased about this. Nor should they be. Sapp is already on thin ice after wrongfully accusing Panthers TE Jeremy Shockey of being the NFL's imformant on the Saints NFL Bounty program.

Cee Lo Green: Your NFL Network Thursday Night Football Theme Singer
We are pretty sure he won't be singing the unedited version of his most popular song either.
According to reports, and because you KNOW you want to know, the NFL Network has a new singer for it's Thursday night game theme song.
And you are probably asking yourself; "Why does this concern me?" It doesn't.
We just wanted to mention it because we generally enjoy Cee Lo's work. Though we aren't big fans of the "Game Night Theme Song" thing, we'll be curious to see how it sounds. Yeah, we know Hank Williams Jr. was, Monday Night Football (until he got foot in mouth disease) and Faith Hill still slinks her way through the Sunday Night open, but honestly, we really think this just makes it all look like a movie spoof.
There is no REAL need to have a "Theme Song" NFL fans are either going to watch or they aren't. And no, this isn't going to get the casual fan, again, people will watch, or they won't.
But gimmicks are gimmicks and as long as this one doesn't stray into the breathless coverage of Tim Tebow's every move category (see ESPN), then we are okay with it.
On the odd chance you aren't familiar with Cee Lo, well take a listen:
Here's the clean version of his most popular song: (Sorry, you'll have to find unedited yourself)
