Amazing job, JK! Very well prepared... and great listen.

It'll be nice to have him back again for the NBA Playoffs.

I think that Tim was a great interview but I view his constant denial of saying that he didn't call the basketball game differently when he bet on the games or released information to his bettors the same bullshit that pete rose used for 15 years stating that he didn't bet on baseball.It is as if Tim wants us to believe that he had gambling ties but was the only "honest ref" in those games. Get a fucking clue.

Don't judge a man on his worst act - like it. We're all capable of making bad decisions.

True. I think part of the reason we don't see him more on TV is because a lot of these shows/networks have blacklisted him. They probably don't want to piss off the NBA and any affiliated companies.

I'm still not completely satisfied with Donaghy's answers. I'll never believe that he didn't bet his games.

Having said that, Donaghy didn't get flustered at all during the interview. To his credit he didn't dodge questions and he wasn't offended by any of the questions (and JK took it to him a few times). He came across as accountable and remorseful. That at least earns my respect.

Tremendous show. Great job JK and David. I liked Tim Donaghy. Hope he comes back often.

Kudos to JK.....that might have been the interview of the year . Questions were

Completely agree, Brians.

I didn't buy some of his answers, but Timmy D was likeable and didn't dodge anything.

Good job, JK.

Easily the best interview I've heard you conduct.

Tim is a good guest, but anyone that doesn't think he is lying is a sucker, imo.

This is the kind of stuff that keeps EOG going. Without John and Glisan around this place wouldve sunk. Keep up the good work you two.:cheers

Obviously he can't admit to fixing games or other things that could still hurt him legally. Other than that, he came across honest and sincere.

Re: Former NBA Ref Tim Donaghy on The EOG Sports Hour tonight

I'm curious what Donaghy thought of Gaming the Game, and if he alleges there were any untruths stated about his activities with Sheep. If so, what were they?

He acted like he didn't know too much about the book? "...heard about it..."

Have you read his book, Joey?

No, but I want to. I remember when someone posted that excerpt from it on the forums and it seemed pretty damn good.

I will see if I can order it for my kindle.

Their loss is EOG's gain. Good moment for EOG tonight.

Re: Former NBA Ref Tim Donaghy on The EOG Sports Hour tonight

My favorite Winky story was when he called a foul just to see a milf's knockers bounce up and down when she protested or something like that...

It was a 3rd Grade Boys game. It was a 30-point game late in the 5th period (5 - 8 min periods made up the game). This kid had a mom who wore a tiiiiiiight sweater and she easily had 36DDs - doctor bought but still 36DDs at minimum. every time her kid made a basket or nice play she would jump up out of her chair at mid court and yell "woo hoo". we (my reffing partner and i) noticed this and every time her kid made a basket we turned ASAP to see her go "woo hoo" so we could mentally do the same. blowout late in the game and i wanted to see her jump up and down 1 more time so when her kid drove the lane i called a foul on some kid so he would go to the line to shoot 2 FTs. he made them both and after each make she bounced up and yelled "woo hoo" and my partner and i did the same. i don't deny it and i am not the least bit ashamed about it

"It was a third-grade boys game."

You picked the wrong excuse, Winky.

Whether it's a third-grade game or Game 7 of the NBA Finals, it doesn't matter.

A better excuse and a more logical rationale for your total disregard of the rule book: the 36DDs.

JK, you should be his publicist as I'm sure I'm not the only one you sold on buying his book...

And, after this impressive effort, you should see if you really can walk on water by getting disgraced tout Fezzik on the show for semi-promised pre-Super Bowl appearance... :btj:

Thanks Herbie.

I'll ring Fezzik's phone today.

I don't think Fezz is pleased with the EOG community right now.
