Quote of the day.

Around the Horn host Tony Reali tells the Sports Business Daily about “the strangest thing that?s happened off the air.”

Jackie MacMullan lmost choked on the air. That was scary. I guess she had an acid reflux-type situation. She had seen a doctor and it had gone away. She had been on pills and she hadn?t taken pills for about a week. Inside information: the show is taped. We tape it about 1:00. It takes 45 minutes to tape. That?s when we have the satellites ready and that?s when we can get four people from around the country all in the same stop without having to cover a game. So we?re ?on air,? even though we can stop at any time if somebody were to curse. Jackie got crazy, and I know we can post-produce the show and get away from certain shots, cut off a microphone. I may have even muted her, but now I see her turning a different color and I?m like, ?What?s going on?? Jackie is in Boston, and she is just with a robotic camera. She has nobody in the room with her. So I?m screaming, ?Somebody get her water!? and the only person that can hear me is Jackie because she only has the ear piece in. She kind of falls off camera and of course it all turned out, thank goodness, well.
