Longtime Cincinnati Reds announcer Thom Brennaman was caught on a hot mic saying “one of the pillowbiter capitals of the world.” He is currently announcing the second game of the Reds’ doubleheader against Kansas City. pic.twitter.com/Uwz07eRIKv

Seems like he might have mentioned that in his apology sign-off, though.
Thought the same. If he’d have said it was a Blazing Saddles reference he would at least have a lot of defenders. As it stands the moment has passed so a little late to work that angle. [Reply]

I like him as an announcer.
And honestly I don't understand why he has to be fired. In a reasonable world he would be suspended for a few weeks/months and that would be the end of it. But we live in this snowflake hugely over-twitterpated universe that just waits to be triggered by things like this, so he's almost assuredly gone. [Reply]
