Buck and Aikman clash over $108 million ESPN contract drama

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe New York Post reports tension between longtime broadcast partners Joe Buck and Troy Aikman over Aikman's contract situation with ESPN, a deal tied to one hundred and eight million dollars.

2. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorCan I just say, this is a marriage. Two men, one booth, one joint account, and now one of them wants to see the statements.

3. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorIt's not a marriage, Vera, it's a custody battle over who gets the better headset.

4. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNext thing you know, they stop saying 'great drive' to each other and the whole league collapses.

5. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLet me finish. I propose a gentle toilet paper roll test.

6. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIf the story can't survive being wrapped around a microphone, it gets a roll of doubt.

7. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOh, it fails. Same as those Republicans on the Russia story, they're heading straight to local news by Friday.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt's a contract dispute.

9. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWith all due respect, Hank, you once cried at a Pixar trailer on air, so you don't get to call anything just a dispute.

10. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAnd these two have to read out a first down together at one in the afternoon, Pacific, with a hundred and eight million dollars between them. They'll finish each other's sentences with a lawsuit.

11. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorOr a group hug. Chat, one to ten, how long before they split a cheesesteak?

12. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorZero. Cheesesteak is evidence.

13. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorOrder. Please.

14. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBoth of you, order. I have shared a booth with you two for years, and the only live mic nobody can find the switch for is yours.
