Marshall Faulk on "Dan Queer"

Damn...how embarrassing was that for Faulk? Calls Dan Quinn.."Dan Queer". Recovered very well, but that has to suck big time for Faulk. A commentators biggest nitemare, right there. LOL.

LOL, they know virtualy nothing about this team.

Eisen commented..."Marshall Faulk now leaving the set". Probably punching himself in the nutz.

It was an accident I'm sure. It happens to everyone. I was watching a media blooper reel on youtube and watched a poor lady say the N word instead of a similar word, while talking about a black man. It was obviously a horrible accident, it doesn't mean she was racist, and this doesn't really mean Faulk is homophobic.

I'm betting off mic they have a lot of little fun names for some people and that one slipped in from habit.

I didn't suggest anything otherwise...in fact, referring to it as a commentators biggest nightmare. Of course it was an accident. Happens all the time, and it's happened to me on air more times than I care to remember.

Once, during a live fundraiser, I was asked to promote a local play of "Les miserable"..or however it's spelled. Not knowing the play, nor French, I pronounced it "Less miserable"...and heard about it for what seemed a year. Made me more miserable, not Less. ; )

For sure...your mind, when your eyes glance at a particular word, will take you to a word you are most familiar with. That's likely what happened here. He didn't say Queen....terrible mistake just the same and I feel for him. That will be his on-air, pre-game memory for 48.

a Robertson slip...
