    SportsCenter and Colbert Feature Yahoo! Sports’ Puck Daddy and Big League Stew

    By Jamie Mottram | January 16, 2009

    In a strange coincidence, two Yahoo! Sports blog posts have been kinda sorta featured on two of my most-watched programs the past two days.

    First, SportsCenter anchor Steve Levy mentioned and quoted Puck Daddy’s landmark interview with Alexander Semin as a lead-in to the Caps-Penguins highlights, referring to Puck Daddy as “Yahoo.com”:

    Then, last night Stephen Colbert mocked the sleeve patches that the Mets are wearing this season, briefly using a headline-image graphic (at the 1:18 mark) taken from Big League Stew’s massively-read post on the subject.

    With any luck, Joel McHale will make fun of Skeets’ hair tonight, mistaking The Basketball Jones for “YouTube”. I mean, a blog editor can dream, right?

      And all I ever hoped for was a profanity-laced reference from Sonny Jurgensen.

      Mandellionaire, thanks for the advice, but I’d rather you just make another “Hat Trick” video. Certainly you’ve purchased enough new fitteds for such a thing.

      Isn’t it crazy how all this is happening while Chris is gone?

      OMG I love Barry Melrose. He is by far my favorite part of Sportscenter. The fact that one of your blogs got a shout-out on Barry’s segment makes it even more awesome.
