We think it was this man, but they all kinda look alike.

Bristol, CT - An ESPN News latenight co-anchor who will be known only as "Mr. X" for legal reasons and also because they didn't flash the graphic of his name long enough for us to grab it, nonetheless blatantly ripped off Sportalicious! managing editor Chet Waterhouse of his signature home run call! All the sporting world knows that sports announcers are identified by two key phrases: a signature tag line (say, our own Chet's "Play with Pain!" or Keith Jackson's well-known classic, "Go to Hell!") and their homer call (say, Dick Engberg's "Touch 'em all!" or John Miller's classic, "There's another damn freakin' home run, damn it!"). During a 3:30am ESPN News broadcast Saturday morning, July 24, Mr. X used Waterhouse's patented home run call, "Back, back, back, 'Scuse Me While I Kiss The Sky!" to describe a pedestrian home run in an inconsequential baseball game. He did not credit Chet and in fact wore a smug smile on his face, though in his defense the smile may be attributed to ESPN's new mandatory "Anchor botox" program. "Everyone knows 'Scuse Me While I Kiss The Sky' is my homer call!" said a visibly riled Waterhouse minutes before boarding a bus to anchor Sportalicious' coverage of the Athens Olympics. "We can settle this one of two ways - Sportalicous! can sue ESPN, and we'll win because my phrase is documented on broadcasts over the years, or... that little j-school Nancy-boy can meet me in an alley to be designated and I'll shove his pseudo-Kilborn attitude down his Little League throat!" Number Two may be the cleaner option, as The Sportalicious! Legal Defense Fund is down to whatever's in the Playboy beer mug next to the Mr. Coffee. But make no mistake -- we will pursue Mr. X until he apologizes on air or is found pummeled silly in a dumpster.
