Ravens Red Alert ! One of my favorite radio segments on the Shemon and Sheppard Show on ESPN Southwest Florida is RED ALERT every Tuesday at 3:30ish! That's where we put people, teams or situations on BLAST because they deserve to be ripped. (I also like the missile launch sound effects that Chris plays from the other side of the glass!)
Common targets are prima danna athletes who are unaware of their social surroundings. It is our duty to point out their public deficiencies.
Other targets can be coaches who make bonehead decisions or team owners and general managers who drive their fans nuts. It is our job to set the world straight, at least during our ten minute segment.
Since we've been doing this segment for a while, I also enjoy how the texters like to add their nominations to the list. Add your Red Alert via text at 239-337-ESPN.
Also, in case you are new to the show, RED ALERT blasts do NOT have to come from the world of sports. In fact, as of late, we like to close the segment by ALWAYS blasting Russian President Vladimir Putin just because. However, I should note that our show goes to painstaking lengths to avoid divisive politics at all costs.
Ravens Red Alert ! You made the list! Let's see who else did!
So let's dial it up! Enjoy this week's RED ALERT!
1. PETE SHEPPARD'S TRAVEL AGENT
Every time he announces that he will return to town on Monday in time for the show... that means "see ya' Tuesday!"
2. PETE SHEPPARD
If anyone criticizes Bill Belichick and the Patriots Pete loses his mind. This week Tedy Bruschi criticized Belichick. Pete's head must have exploded. Torn between to lovers.
3. PETE SHEPPARD
Pete is very proud of his bet making. Until he gets his teams mixed up and touts a game that has already happened.
4. BALTIMORE RAVENS
Just when John Harbaugh was telling the media that all is well with Lamar Jackson, Jackson was busy tweeting that he wants to be traded. Oops!
5. CBS
I don't know if an FAU-Miami final would draw national ratings. But that's the matchup I'm hoping for!
6. JOHN LYNCH
John Lynch says Brock Purdy, Trey Lance and Sam Darnold will all battle for the QB1 spot. Fine. But he also said Purdy is currently QB1. Due to his injury, he won't see the field until mid-September. So why say that?
7. VLAD PUTIN
Stop the war Ass-clown!
