Darrell Green's Speech Ruined by Phantom Caller....

[miDeuce]

Anyone watching this right now? Green's in the middle of his heartfelt speech and suddenly it sounds like someone is on speaker phone with him. The person said "Hello?" and Green paused and responded "hello?". It totally put a damper on a very emotional moment for him. I feel bad for him. The phone line seemed to stay live for a bit, the person on the other end coughed before NFl Network finally fixed it.

Yes he has. Is this being broadcast from the RCA DOME?

I think that the call might have been Art Monk who is on a cell phone and is having some connection issues.

When he was thanking people and said he said something "stupid" does anyone know what that was about ?

 

[BradyFTW!]

I had no idea what was going on, it was really weird.

Not really. It had something to do with something his parents said, I think? I couldn't make sense of it.

Hope Sen. Arlen Specter, who always puts the good of the nation first, has time to fully investigate this.

It was right after he said he hoped there were thousands of hotels, he was going there with his parents [pause] "that was really stupid"
My immediate wonder was are they alive?
Either way, he pulled it together and was much more coherent at the end.

Right, he was talking about his family so I wondered if someone was dead or in jail for something.
