Willie Mitchell scores in gm 4 :Liz Habib Sports Fail !

[Vamos Rafa]

I think it was done on purpose so that they would get more publicity.

It's pretty obvious. They named a player who hasn't played with them all season long. The only way that's more obvious is if she said Joe Biden had been the scorer.

We do have Joe Biden on the team, but he's a goalie. Big ****ing difference.

 

[KingPuckChoo]

i think Sean Price should juggle his lines this way for Sunday's Midnight Matchup

D. Khristich - C. Walken - D. Brown
Method Man - Raekwon - Ghostface Killah
D. Penner - Y. Arafat - Cobra Commander
Animal - Slash - B. Vilanch


B. Doty - R. Blake
W. Mitchell - Gunzo
N. Vidal - A. Kopidor
T. Hatcher

J. Biden

Well, people are still talking about Brad Doty, right? Winner winner chicken dinner.

i think Animal can pull it off despite being injured... he is an all-star after all

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

At this point, you can't help but wonder the writers do this stuff on purpose

Could be. She used to work here in Phoenix on Channel 3 before she went to LA; here is some stuff to check out and I'll let you guys decide on all of this by comparing and contrasting her then and now.

There is also this article by the Phoenix New Times about her as well; caution with the language in it.

I can't find much else about her on the net from Phoenix as it is slim pickings.

 

[KingPuckChoo]

that's one heck of a checking line haha

 

[DaAnimal]

What if she writes her own material?

Okay then let her DIaF

I was going to close this thread because I thought someone bumped last years. I couldn't believe it when I realized it was a fresh fail. Oy.

Never under estimate the L.A. "sports media."

"Fresh fail" but on purpose. Neither she nor her writers are that stupid.

But one must have to wonder why a newscast has to pull this stunt just to get viewers. It's one reason why I never watch the news on TV.

"Newsactors"

 

[Barrys Mullet]

That was terrible.

Wow!

That's scary stuff

 

[kingsfan28]

You'd think that with only one goal scored it wouldn't be too hard to find out who scored. Also, if you're the sports reporter and you watch the highlight before you put your report together, they actually say who scored. But hey, it wouldn't be the playoffs without a local sports fail.

 

[KINGS17]

I mean, Liz Haboob wouldn't do that on purpose, right?

@LizHabib gave me the evil eye as I was leaving Staples. I don't think she likes my #braddoty jersey.

Nice

Puck Daddy picked up on it.

[Herby]

I felt kind of bad because this chick got fired. But when you suck at your job multiple times, you are going to get fired, no matter what you do. Unless your Glen Sather.

love the: "Please advance, LA Kings. YouTube needs you."

 

[DeeMeck]

These things have been done on purpose for awhile I'd imagine in L.A. market.

That website is bringing a huge amount of traffic, which allows the news station to make more money by selling more ads.

I do know it's a YouTube vid but their website is still bringing in traffic because of it, even if it is just people to complain.

That's cool you called her a chick...

Actually, this Susanna reporter was more smooth than Habib has ever been doing a sports piece. She missed one word - then she instantly corrected herself. No biggy, imo.

Habib keeps missing many words and just keeps charging ahead. She almost seems drunk.

It's pretty transparent. They pronounced Willie Mitchell's name perfectly.

It wasn't this incident that got her fired. The Blackhawks found out about her videos on Sports Nutz and that's what did it.

Pretty crappy move by the Hawks, but it is what it is. And she is indeed a hell of a lot smoother than O'Neal or Moriarty.

 

[Reclamation Project]

I'll admit it: I like O'Neal. He's very passionate, obviously does his homework, and genuinely loves the Kings. He's kind of a goober sometimes, but I like him. He was on AM 570 yesterday and he's extremely knowledgable and loves his job.

Just don't call him a Duck lover... far from it
