Favorite SportsCenter Quips?

coleslaw · 06-09-2003, 11:54 PM

What are some of your favorite SportsCenter quips? You know, those funny phrases that the guys/gals throw into the clips to get the viewers laughing.

One of my favorites is by Kenny Mayne when voicing-over a clip for a home run:

"Your puny ballparks are too small to contain my gargantuan blasts! Bring me the finest meats and cheeses for a clubhouse feast!"

or this variation:

"I am king of the diamond! Let there be a grand clubhouse feast! Bring me the finest meats and cheeses throughout the land!"

Other favorites include:

"The WHIIIIFFFF!"

and

"Can I get a witness from the congregation?"

Share more please.

"And up comes Carlos Delgado...Del GOT IT!"(as he crushes a homerun)

"Steve Finley's friends call him butta because he is on a roll!"

"Chokin on a splinter"(as the dude strikes out also a reference to "I'm a loser" by Beck)

I'll try and think of some more. Sportscenter is in my top 3 shows to watch

"He is amused by the simplicity of this game."

"I'm not sure what the pitch is, but it tastes like chicken."

My favorite variation is where he referred to it as "A clubhouse feast with finely marbled red meat."

And...

[insert player name] gets his 14th home run - of the season not this game - that'd be a record.

<insert name> hit's his xxx homerun of the night because basehits are stupid.

"Sweet Sassy Molassy!" - Ray Romano, SNL

OK, technically not an "authentic" Sportscenter quip, but memorable just the same.

"En fuego!"

"You can't stop him. You can only hope to contain him."

"Booyah!"
