Shaquille O’Neal is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Shilique Calhoun is one of the best defensive linemen in Michigan State football history. What do they have in common? Well, ESPN calls them by the same first name.
Research should be a large part of an ESPN analyst’s job. Heck, it should be one of the main components of a broadcast journalism job. No on-air personality wants to be made a fool by saying the wrong name or presenting the wrong facts.
Clearly, this guy didn’t do his research.
