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 primadanna 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.
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. So let's dial it up! Enjoy this week's RED ALERT!
1. BRIAN KELLY
His team does not seem to like him. And any more losses like the one vs. FSU and LSU fans won't like him either!
2. DJ UIAGALELEI
He might be on the clock. Freshman Cade Klubnik looks promising.
3. PAC-12
Quit scheduling SEC teams for season openers!
4. UCLA FANS
The Rose Bowl had 85,000 EMPTY seats this weekend.
5. VLAD PUTIN
End the war Ass-Clown!
