BOB Griese Juan Pablo Montoya
Latest news updates about BOB Griese Juan Pablo Montoya,During a promo for the Chase on ESPN’s telecast of the Ohio State-Minnesota college football game, the network ran a list of the top five in the Cup standings.
The following exchange occurred during the broadcast: “Where’s Juan Pablo Montoya?” asked analyst Chris Spielman, to which his broadcast partner, Bob Griese, replied, “He’s out having a taco.”
If there was anything more remarkable than the tone-deaf nature of Griese’s comments about the Colombian driver, it was that the remark was so audible, given how far Griese had just wedged his foot into his mouth.
Griese smartly apologized before the conclusion of the broadcast.
“Juan Pablo Montoya is one of the best drivers in NASCAR,” Griese said shortly before the end of the game. “I just want to apologize for the comment I made earlier in the ballgame.”
ESPN released a statement shortly afterward.
“During today’s telecast of the Ohio State-Minnesota college football game on ESPN, analyst Bob Griese made an inappropriate comment when discussing NASCAR driver Juan Pablo Montoya,” the statement read. “Bob apologized during the telecast, and plans to apologize again [Saturday night] during ESPN’s college football programming after his plane lands. ESPN has spoken to Bob and he understands that his comment was uncalled for.”
Griese later made good on the promise, apologizing on air during ESPN’s Saturday night telecast of Florida and Mississippi State.
