ESPN “The Ocho” has outdone itself.
The worldwide leader has continued its tradition of turning ESPN2 into ESPN8 to provide sports fans with a day of wacky coverage of bizarre sport events, as inspired by the movie “DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story.”
In a game of Headis (head tennis), Headi Potter and Sniper Schorsch were battling out a fierce rally, in which their play was as on-point as their names. When Schorsch delivered the point-winning strike, the broadcaster Adam Candee delivered back-to-back priceless calls.
“What a save by Sniper! And then he comes in, turning his whole body into a torpedo with a nuclear war headis. You see Headi here b-body dance around the side of the table and plant his head into the ball,” he said.
A nuclear war headis? B-boy dancing? More. Please, more.
ESPN’s “The Ocho” will be providing apparently transcendent coverage of countless (almost) sporting events on Wednesday. This is just the beginning.
