For those of you who are unaware, ESPN college basketball analyst Doug Gottlieb originally enrolled with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish following an impressive high school career in Orange County. During his freshman year, he ran into a little trouble with the law, and by a little trouble I mean misdemeanor fraud. Doug got into the habit of using his roommates credit cards and eventually racked up $900 worth of purchases, unfortunately his roommate was unaware of these facts.
Over a decade later, during a Gottlieb chat for ESPN a fan decided to have a little fun. This transcript is no longer available from the ESPN archives.
Jables (NY): Has anyone ever told you that you look like Eddie from “The Munsters”?
Doug Gottlieb: (4:03 PM ET ) Yes, as a kid, and yet I am still on TV…
Mike Indiana: How did your mediocre basketball career prepare you for a mediocre broadcasting career?
Doug Gottlieb: (4:04 PM ET ) So your mediocre life can prepare you for a mediocre afterlife…and by the way, which one of us works for ESPN…
hey and next time…when I you say 30 minutes or less….get here on time with my pizza.
John (Notre Dame): Doug, I lost my credit card, where were you last night?
SportsNation Doug Gottlieb: (4:27 PM ET ) Ask your mom.
Johns Mom (Notre Dame): GOTTLIEB I KNOW YOU STOLE MY SON’S CREDIT CARD!
SportsNation Doug Gottlieb: (4:34 PM ET ) Ten years ago I made a mistake…and payed for it…18 years ago YOU WERE your parents mistake and they are still paying for it.
Anyone feel like calling his radio show?
