I can't claim to be a regular viewer of the rasslin' on the teevee, but I'm more familiar with personages involved with the WWE than I probably should be. One of the more persistent (if not particularly popular) characters has been that of Jonathan "Coach" Coachman, who at various times has been a commentator, a manager, even the General Manager of one of the WWE's shows. He's been a character hanging on the periphery of the actual action for something like a decade and change.
So, imagine my surprise when this morning, during a "Sportscenter Now" break in Mike & Mike In the Morning on ESPN2, the newsreader was none other than Jonathan Coachman. He's traded in a job hanging around with sweaty fat men like JBL for a job hanging around sweaty fat men like Mike Golic. (Mike Golic says he is skinny now. My god man--you're the fattest thing I've ever seen, and I've been on Safari!)
Still, until Mike Greenberg knees Coachman in the balls, I guess it is a step up from this (am I suggesting that losing a fight to Greenberg would be more humiliating than losing a fight to an "Irish" little-person? Yes I am. And that dumb bastard has it coming)
