Back in March of this year , I wrote a post asking why Justin Timberlake of all people would be hosting a sports awards show. Justin is typically annoying, but I’ll be damned if he didn’t crack me up a few times during the telecast (and I actually only saw HALF the show). There was a little comedy piece they did with Terrell Owens and Brett Favre crying that was hilarious, ...

Pop Goes the ESPY Awards
wcbias.com 7/18/2008 — Teenie Boppers rejoice! Boy Band Badass (if that’s not an oxymoron, I don’t know what is) Justin Timberlake is hosting the ESPYs on Sunday!
OMG! JT ON ESPN!
I guess ESPN has given up on its current demographic, young, affluent, male sports nuts between the ages of 18 and 34, and is trying to boost its ratings in the 8- to 12-year-old Barbie Doll demographic.
MUST B F8!
Not that dudes ...
Jimmy V Award for Perserverance
predominantlyorange.com 7/21/2008 — Justin Timberlake killed it at the ESPY Awards . I think he even got Posh Spice to crack half a smile. Here’s an interview JT did with ABC’s Robin Roberts the morning after his performance. In this clip you will see Kevin Everett walk up to the podium to accept the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance. Quite inspirational considering less than a year ago he was carried off the football ...

deuceofdavenport.com 7/21/2008 — So, the ESPY's just happened and this is about the only interesting story that I could find that came out of the whole event. ESPY host Justin Timberlake recounted the story of his first meeting with Michael Jordan...and his pants got a little wet . "When I was young... I wanted to be Michael Jordan. It was weird, I heard (Gary Wright song) Dreamweaver in my head when he walked in the ...

ESPY Thoughts —
The Bleacher Creatures
Shockingly, and I truly mean shockingly, Justin Timberlake wasn't that bad. He really wasn't. Sure, the 2008 ESPYs were filled with run-into-the-ground gags (see Mario Chalmers), but overall JT held his own with a tough crowd. And while Brett Favre certainly stole the spotlight (he has a knack for doing that), the show otherwise ran smoothly and even made me chuckle once or twice. Since the ...
Timberlake Joke Removed From ESPY Telecast —
AwfulAnnouncing
I know you're probably sick of the ESPYs stories, but there's just one more to pass along. According to Arash Markazi of SI , not every Justin Timberlake joke was well received last week (and no not because it just wasn't funny). Markazi was at the event and says that Timberlake used the term "shucking and jiving" when joking about Paul Pierce's NBA Finals injury and it was taken out of the ...

Same Page Sports
The 2008 Espy’s aired on Sunday night and I must admit that I was not expecting much from Justin Timberlake. I found the show to be absolutely amazing and thought his delivery was superb. I think that he should be the host for life. I was laughing the entire night. Here is a list of the one liners that I particularly enjoyed.

Grind It Out Sports
That’s right folks, we are officially in the Meh Season. The time of year between the MLB All-Star Game and the start of the NFL season, where the sports world goes into a deep slumber. Sure we still have baseball to watch, but post-All Star Break baseball doesn’t get interesting until September. So until then we don’t have a lot to look forward to, did anyone watch the British Open? How ...

Poor Sports: Bitter Philly Sports Fans Sound Off
OK, I'll admit it—I like Justin Timberlake. He totally seems like a cool dude. He's hit some of the hottest chicks in the world, recorded with some great artists, sang some great songs and most recently, hosted the shit out of the ESPY'S. Chances are they'll be replaying it for the next few days (read: weeks), as they have already re-aired it today at lunch. But if you don't catch it, allow ...
The ESPYs Were Definitely Cheesy, But Not Necessarily Bad —
AwfulAnnouncing
I caught most of the ESPYs last night and I have to say that while the event is a bit over the top, and the jokes are pretty bad, it's not all that bad. Sure you wouldn't go out of your way to watch it, but if you say...."had to"....it wouldn't be the end of the world. Justin Timberlake was equal parts cheesy and entertaining and I pulled a quick video for you if you missed the ...

Hey, we couldn’t name one single *NSYNC song (just had to look up the spelling, too) but for all this kid Timberlake’s prissy, boy-band, guyliner wearing past…you have to admit he’s a great ESPY Awards host. He obviously knows and loves his sports and showed he doesn't take himself too seriously. We’ll be the first ones to say it…someday soon he should host the Oscars, too. Good job, ...
