Here's one we are not going to play the audio for. Bruce Jacobs hosts a show on the Townsquare owned sports station (ESPN affiliate) in Albany. He may be in a bit of trouble after he made very disturbing remarks during a discussion about the WNBA. Jacobs called two pro women?s teams the ?Los Angeles Lesbians? and the ?Phoenix Dyke-ury? during his show, ?Game on With Bruce Jacobs." And as he tries to apologize and explain his way out of the situation, it gets even wackier.
Jacobs apologized on the air for ten minutes yesterday and he told the Albany Times Union he did not think he should be fired. ?We live in a society today where no matter what you say, you?re a bigot or you?re a racist,? he said. ?I don?t like it, but it comes with the territory. So obviously I think that?s ridiculous.?
Really? The teams? actual names are the Los Angeles Sparks and the Phoenix Mercury.
