Tracy Morgan asked about Sarah Palin, cue inappropriateness [video] Tracy Morgan stopped by the TNT pregame set to answer a couple of questions. Here’s what happened: Morgan should know better, but he doesn’t.

John Madden was, um, colorful in the color analyst role on a NFL telecast. His catch phrases were the sound effects from the old Batman television series. After every play, you were guaranteed a “boom” or a “bam” from Madden in his description. He brought fun to the no fun league (NFL), and his name is synonymous in the gaming community for playing video football. And Madden was a maverick in another way; he left on top in two professions. He will be missed. The NBA and NHL postseasons start this weekend, and there are a few good baseball games on the tube as well.
