AA Would Like You To Meet The Douchebag Of The Day

Three people died in a fiery car crash.....F'ING HILARIOUS!!!
That's pretty much the definition of Awful Announcing, and I'm bumping Jay Warren up to Douchebag of the last decade.

This a-hole has set the gold standard for awful announcing with this sorry display. His behavior in this instance makes Joe Morgan look like Walter Cronkite in comparison. I hope he was fired immediately, there's no excusing such behavior.
Sometimes it's toughest to avoid laughing when you know it would be ABSOLUTELY inappropriate. Still, that's not acceptable.
The only thing more funny than that is that really old clip (80s?) of the Sports Center anchor (the guy with the beard that was banished to covering horse races, Stein something or other) laughing hysterically because of the words he was reading on the teleprompter. Anybody have that clip?
This prick was a weekend/back-up anchor on WSLS-10 in Roanoke for years. That's akin to being Rosie O'Donnell's back-up bikini waxer...
Charley Steiner. he now calls games for the Dodgers.
My, WSLS certainly pounced on that quickly. I can't find the video anywhere.
Phil Rizzuto just died. I wonder how this announcer will cover the story? Holy cow!
I don't care if an intern was running around naked with a banana sticking out of his ass behind the camera, they need to fire this douchebag NOW!
