What BBN said about it

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorBBN Sports. ESPN reports Euroleague members rejected a formal NBA offer to merge into one NBA Europe.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThat's a hostile takeover bid getting a hard no.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentSo the NBA tried to buy Europe's basketball. Is that like the NBA tried to buy Europe's basketball, but with a ball?

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorNina, no. Stop. Also ESPN says Padres closer Mason Miller is on the paternity list for elimination Game 3.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorBrewers lead the series two to nothing.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentA closer who closes on the day of a birth? He's multitasking. I assume the baby is also a relief pitcher?

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorIt's tied zero to zero in the top of the third. I rode a bench four seasons and never once got a paternity list.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorNobody needed me that badly.
