Lucky for Her: Still No Dana Jacobson Video
ESPN, Media Gossip/Musings January 16th. 2008, 10:04am
We’re hearing that vodka-swilling ESPN anchor Dana Jacobson has been “talked to” by the higher-ups at the WWL about her excessive boozing at the painfully lame Mike & Mike Roast last weekend in Atlantic City. According to a source, Jacobson is one of the least-liked anchors in Bristol (complaining like a diva about having her do her own makeup is just one of the reasons), but plays “The Game” well with the suits and thus her antics at the roast have been chalked up as a screw-up that happens to guys all the time (at the Super Bowl in San Diego, we saw Stu Scott stumbling in the streets; at the Super Bowl in Jacksonville, we saw an out-of-control Chris Berman hammered beyond belief in a club).
But the overriding feeling is that Jacobson is in the clear - for now. Even though the Atlantic City Press painted a vivid picture (”ESPN anchor Dana Jacobson made an absolute fool of herself, swilling vodka from a Belvedere bottle, mumbling along and cursing like a sailor as Mike & Mike rested their heads in their hands in embarrassment. Griffin came to the podium to defend her after she was booed by the crowd. Ross eventually had to pull her off stage, too.”), someone who attended the roast passed along this message: “hard to describe what a fucking train-wreck she was.”

Poor girl just wants to get her swill on. Leave Dana Alone!

is she that ugly, sans makeup, that she needs two hours of work on her face a day?
January 16th, 2008 at 10:11 am
@jimmy
I assume that is rhetorical…

There is a horse in Bristol that lost it’s way and made it onto the set of Cold Pizza

who was the guy — i can’t remember his name — who was busted for pissing out a window at a bar in cleveland and in the process pissed on a cop?
January 16th, 2008 at 10:16 am
It takes her 2 hours to do her hair and make-up? I’m going to quit bitching at my wife for taking so long now.
The word Diva indicates some sort of success while being a bitch. Sounds like she is just a bitch.

For every story like this that gets shoved under the rug, Gary Miller celebrates by pissing off a balcony onto a couple of cops

What is the more rational reaction when faced with a Mike and Mike roast? Smiling and pretending you are having a good time? Or, getting piss drunk?
Also, what kind of official event has full bottles of vodka just lying around? Did she have to steal that from behind the bar?

Who can say that they haven’t ever had a bit too much to drink in the company of co-workers?
January 16th, 2008 at 10:40 am
It wasn’t so much the being really drunk, it was the little kicks and a spirited bought of skanko roman wrestling.
January 16th, 2008 at 10:44 am
Lucky for us. She looks like Paul Davis from Michigan State.
January 16th, 2008 at 10:45 am
Maj…good point, but its always more fun when other people do it.
at our co’s xmas party, this attractive chick had WAY too much to drink, ended up giving the boss a lap dance in the bar and threw up in a coworker’s audi when he was driving her home. that was the best xmas present i have ever recieved.

Excellent CRM

“Who can say that they haven’t ever had a bit too much to drink in the company of co-workers?”
Probably nobody. But who can say they’ve gotten really drunk in the company of famous co-workers at a roast with national media types in the crowd watching and reporting every drunken word and actions?
I’d say the expectations are a bit different.

@Spencer: I got five on it! Bling bling!

Anybody else catch Dana interviewing Archie Manning on First Take a few weeks back:
Dana:”So at what age did Peyton and Eli realize there wasn’t a Santa?”
Archie: “Well, my grandkids are watching right now…”
awkward banter ensued…
Did I just admit to watching First Take…crap! I swear I was exercising at the time and couldn’t reach the remote!
January 16th, 2008 at 11:09 am
Wait, you mean these human beings like to get drunk when they aren’t at their jobs?
Oh the humanity!?!!??!?!
January 16th, 2008 at 11:13 am
If men are held to a certain standard–a free pass every now and again for boozin’ beyond control–so should the gal.
Question is: would you do her if you were in the same state?
January 16th, 2008 at 11:16 am
“someone who attended the roast passed along this message: ‘hard to describe what a fucking train-wreck she was.’”
The real question, why was anyone at the Mike & Mike roast?
January 16th, 2008 at 11:17 am
Does this mean ESPN is admitting to her actually being a man?
January 16th, 2008 at 11:29 am
@ Jax: Hang on! What the fuck!? Santa isn’t real?
January 16th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Who actually watches Cold Pizza anyway???
January 16th, 2008 at 11:31 am
woody paige’s lawyers
January 16th, 2008 at 11:50 am
Just get rid of that damn show already
January 16th, 2008 at 12:09 pm
Gary Miller pisses off a balcony, Salisbury sends pics of his schlong to some young hottie(I’m assuming she was, at least), and Tirico gets shipped back to Michigan(but keeps his job) after supposedly stalking some producer. Then you have the Harold Reynolds “hugging” incident and the sexual harassment suit against Paige and Jacobsen’s co-host(whatever his name is) and the Shrutebag. Maybe she was trying to be one of the boys, especially since it’s a “boys will be boys” atmosphere at the WWL.

If I may offer some advice to Ms. Jacobson - save yourself 2 hours and skip the makeup.
January 16th, 2008 at 12:42 pm
Why the long face, Dana?
January 16th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Christ, I would be drunk all the time too if I worked with Jay Crawford.
“Oh my goodness”.
January 16th, 2008 at 1:18 pm
When the morning roundup is particulary bad and uninteresting (ugly chick picture) I watch Cold Pizza instead of checking out the links.
January 16th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Anyone hear what Sage Steele had to say about the incident?
“This is why I have been asking for a female co host”
January 16th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
It doesn’t say she was unhappy about not having someone to do her make-up and hair. It says she had to get used to working in a largely male environment for whom the hair and make-up is less important. Any you fellas all know that there it does in general take us less time to get ready than the ladies.
January 16th, 2008 at 3:34 pm
I will say it again….Dana Jacobson is what would happen if Bill Walton f*cked Monica Lewinsky.
January 16th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Come on, guys, it wasn’t Gary Miller, it was Larry Beil.
January 16th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
So, what? A chick got pissed at a work function. Based on the cell pix he sent, Sean Salisbuy’s penis is happy.
January 16th, 2008 at 4:55 pm
Horse. Face.

Drinking and swearing at a *roast* gets you suspended at ESPN?!? Ugh.
