Quote:This.

 

Anybody with any knowledge of how ESPN works knows what if the interview anyone remotely associated with the Jaguars will ask the questions about Khan, and the status of the team moving or will slide it in there with an agenda.

 

Mark did previous work with ESPN, he knew better and should have been better prepared. His apology was pure damage control.

 

Brunell said in multiple interviews afterward that he really wasn't expecting a lot of Jaguar specific questions.  That's not what they hired him for.  It's not like he'd been affiliated with the organization in any capacity in what, a decade? 

 

Brunell was hired by ESPN on one day, and the next he was flying to Bristol on the red eye to be on the air first thing that morning.  I doubt he had time to think about anything but what suit to wear.  This is not some deep thinker we're talking about.
