Character of the Week x Mike Golic

Photobucket
So I blogged a few days ago about the Prince Fielder - Barry Zito bean ball incident, which in itself is pretty comical, but the funniest thing regarding the whole ordeal, is what ESPN radio mogul Mike Golic had to say about the whole thing. On his talk radio show 'Mike and Mike in the Morning' alongside Mike Greenberg, Golic (the heftier one of the two) decided it was appropriate to rant on the subject. Although he lacks the normal baseball logic one would need to successfully debate the incident, Golic gave it his all by calling Zito a "coward". "Every Milwaukee player was in on it, so why not bean ever player on the team if you're such a tough guy", said the sloppy overweight and out of shape former NFL defensive lineman. But as one could tell, Golic clearly missed the purpose of the pitch. Not to mention beaning every Brewer player like he suggested would lead to a ginormous fine and suspension among other things. Besides, after 2 or 3 hit batsman, Zito would've been tossed out of the game. But again, remembering it was Golic who made these remarks, I don't think he knew that. It's obvious who the brains on that show is when it comes to every other sport that isn't football. Golic, stick to football my friend...
