That's gotta be one of the most awkward moments I've ever seen in a sports game. Yikes.

I love passive-aggressiveness.

Wow...I don't think that I've ever heard an exchange like that during a broadcast. Eagle really sounded butthurt for some reason. I don't know why he would say that Czar was insulting his intelligence. Announcers that explain things like that on the air typically do it for the fans and not to educate the other announcer.

Maybe Eagle's woman has cut him off in the bedroom or something.

Eagle needs to hook up with Marv, learn to sink his teeth into his relationships better.

I listened to the original Fratello comment, it seemed perfectly clear to me. No idea why the other guy who I've never heard of went off on him. What a dick.

Someone compared this to when you're younger and you sleep over at a friend's house and stay a little too long the next day.....you go an hour or 2 past noon and this kinda thing always ended up happening.

Dudes had just been spending a little too much time together, it'll blow over.

Odd that it comes on the heels of the Skip Bayless/Jalen Rose drama. Ratings whores.

Ratings? Nobody is watching the Nets play so they dont have to worry about ratings. :lol

lol TNT. They started saying "gobbely gook" back and forth when they said Czar was calling the Celts/Knicks.

As it turns out, you were right. It was a fake arguement.
