RED ALERT RIHANNA ! 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.
And again, RED ALERT RIHANNA ! You made the list! Let's see who else did!
So let's dial it up! Enjoy this week's RED ALERT!
1. NFL AND GROUND CREW IN GLENDALE, ARIZONA
The Super Bowl turf looked like a skating rink.
2. EAGLES DEFENSIVE LINE
You had as many sacks in the Super Bowl as me.
3. CHIEFS DEFENSE
NOTE: When Jalen Hurts is under center and there are two team mates right behind him...that's gonna be a QB sneak!
4. RIHANNA
Ok, I'll say it, unlike Twitter: The halftime show sucked. Zero energy and very little creativity. Congrats on the new baby, though.
5. FOX MLB STUDIO SHOW
Jete's is joining A-Rod. FROST WARNING!
6. PURDUE
2 losses in 8 days.
7. ZION
Another hammy setback. Even Greg Oden thinks you get hurt a lot.
8. PETE SHEPPARD
Check on him. Tom Brady turned in his papers this week.
9. VLAD PUTIN
Stop the war Ass-Clown!
