Oliver Defends In-Game
Report On Donovan McNabb |
Fox’ Pam Oliver “strongly defended her in-game report" during Eagles-Cowboys Sunday that Eagles QB Donovan McNabb “seems to believe that his days in Philadelphia are numbered,” according to Bob Brookover of the PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER. McNabb denied making the comments, but Oliver said, “I was backing away to leave and he said, ‘I know that the next place I go, I will win, and I will have a smile on my face the whole time.’” Oliver: “He proceeded with a whole lot of information that he completely volunteered. He was putting his opinion out there about everything. I’m a little shocked and dumbfounded that it has all been denied. I can’t believe it, and I don’t understand it.” McNabb declined to respond to Oliver’s latest comments (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, 12/18).
JUSTICE IS SERVED: YES Network said that it will retain Yankees analyst David Justice despite his being named in the Mitchell Report last week. YES COO Ray Hopkins said that he had “no reason to doubt Justice’s assertions last week that he had not taken [HGH], as alleged in the report” (MULTICHANNEL.com, 12/18).
