As you may have noticed today, Mike Florio hasn’t been cranking out items for the rumor mill since the early morning.
That’s because he’s headed up to New York City for the second straight week to appear at halftime of Notre Dame football with Peter King and Jimmy Roberts. (And yes, I think I used roughly the same intro for this plug last week. Unlike Florio, I’m fine saying the exact same thing.)
The Fighting Irish kick off against the Boston College Eagles around 3:30 ET, so make your plans accordingly. And start thinking up hair/suit/bias/West Virginia jokes now.
Florio and King will discuss all the latest news from around the league.
Who is this Mike Florio?
I know of that Peter King cat…he’s the rather rotund fella I generally see at dunkin donuts early in the moring sporting the jelly donut smile.
STOP THE MADNESS!!!
Wait,.Notre Dame has a football team?……….Since when?
I’m still going to request that Florio punch that coffee-drinking, baseball-loving, rex-ryan-wannabe-looking Peter King in the face.
All Hail King Florio
Catch Mike Florio on NBC Saturday? No thanks. I’m scheduled to be catching the pig flu that day.
I’d toss out some Florio jokes, but I think I used them all on Stephanopolous on Tuesday night. I haven’t restocked.
It sucks to have to work on Saturdays.
“Wait,.Notre Dame has a football team?……….Since when?”
Since the Eagirls have had one, for sure.
Mike, how much do you have to pay them to get on that show?
Actually Gregg, I think Mr. Florio is lucky to have you covering for him so he can go pimp Peter King for more lattes.
“Catch Mike Florio” sounds about as enticing as “Catch H1N1″
Since you and Florio are in agreement that this kind of thing is no big deal, can we expect that Florio will show up in a CBS Sports shirt and say to Peter King, “I just wanted to feel like a winner!”? Now that would make tolerating a Notre Dame game worthwhile.
Watch those nervous hands, Florio.
I’d like to catch Mike Flowerio in the same room as John Hererra and maybe, you know, getting his jaw broken.
Give me ‘Why NBC Sucks’ for $500, Alex.
Question: Name three idiots who attempt to report about sports without actually knowing or reporting anything about sports…
What is Peter King, Jimmy Roberts and Mike Flowerio?
Correct!!
Florio, maybe you can break loose an actual rumor on the show! You remember, like you used to do on this site before you started to just regurgitate news that was legally confirmed.
Unless NBC demands you continue on your path of never breaking am actual rumor because you might get in trouble, then please continue to report no actual rumors.
“Catch Mike Florio on NBC Sunday”
Whoopy Ding
Florio…I like your website and you did a really great job with it…..I admire you for that. Beyond that…..I prefer to listen to football experts/players/ex-players/coaches/GMs etc…
…but I must say I’m not a big fan of lawyers. YUK.
Drop your lawyer side…..and I’ll probably start to like you.
