Michael Jenkins Interview: “Sportscasting’s Ron Burgundy” discusses Capitals frustration

CSN sports anchor Michael Jenkins gives hope to aspiring sports broadcasters that when you reach the top of the mountain, it is still possible to be yourself and create unconventional fun on the air. When the Washington Capitals bowed out of the playoffs last year, Jenkins had a stiff drink on the air as he discussed the latest futility of the Alexander Ovechkin led squad.

This past week, Jenkins read self-written scripture that evoked the essence of Game of Thrones as he detailed the sorrow of Washington sports teams. He does the normal job differently, and viewers benefit.
