OK, Confessors. I need to know if I'm losing my mind. Let me know if any of you have heard this.
The Ticket is running a promo where Norm says something like:
"The Cowboys now have ten days to meticulously prepare for [short pause] Geno Smith." Then Donovan laughs and says "Oh, yeah," something like that. A reasonably funny observation, Norm sells it with a "wait for it" pause, and a sensible reaction from Donovan.
This morning on my jog listening to the Teebox, I heard the same promo, except it sounded like they'd edited it to substitute "the Giants" for "Geno Smith" -- no pause. Just a declarative sentence. But still followed by the same Donovan explosive chortle -- which now makes no sense.
But I am thinking I may have one or both of those promos wrong.
Please advise.
And if I've heard this correctly, why change the promo? Because no one's heard of Geno Smith?
Have a fine holiday weekend.
CORRECTION: I am in fact losing my mind, or my hearing. I heard the promo again on "Work in Progress" this morning (another bad title -- why do the JV sometimes select self-critical titles?), and they did not edit out "Geno Smith" -- the entire phrase is "Geno Smith and the Giants." Just heard "Giants" the time when I thought they'd edited it.
So never mind, and enjoy the redhead.
