Hey guys... Didn't know where to place this post, so I'll start it up here.

OK, you know I watch Mike & Mike in the Morning on ESPN News, right? Well, they did an SS spoof segment this morning, centering on the whole Terrell Owens situation.

*Classic SS song intro chorus: Can you tell me how to get... How to get to Sesame Street?
*Next we see ... Well, I don't know what it was that was seen, given my blind batty eyes. Could've been two mock-puppet replicas, could've been the two guys from their production staff dressed up like Bert and Ernie, could've been cartoon images.

The point is we hear the two guys speaking as if they were Bert and Ernie.

Ernie: Hey Bert!
Bert: What is it Ernie?
Ernie: Terrel Owens is on Sesame Street.

*Clip of TO talking, how all he's looking for is a chance to play football... All he wants is the team to honor their contract so he can play football.
Ernie: I was just looking for my Rubber Duckie.
*Ernie laugh.
Bert: Ernie!

Ernie: TO was brought to you by the number 49,000,000.

Of course, this was inspired by the fact that TO was hitting a bunch of ESPN shows yesterday with his agent, talking about the "drama" of the contract dispute.
Rully made me laugh out loud when I saw this sketch earlier today.

Hope you guys like it too./
