What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYahoo Sports reports Roberto Baggio is in New York to receive a Best Italian Player of All Time award from a cultural association.

2. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorOur question: does one career-defining miss cancel a lifetime of brilliance? Chip says no. Kenji says yes.

3. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNinety seconds each, and I ban the word legend.

4. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThank you, Hank. A man flies to New York, people clap, someone hands him an award. That is simply a lovely Sunday.

5. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorYou do not erase a career because of one afternoon. Nobody here is rewinding the tape. We are applauding the whole tape.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorKenji, your opening statement.

7. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe internet never forgets. One miss gets turned into a clip, a meme, a sticker pack. The award is the footnote.

8. 

   Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentPeople will scroll past the trophy and stop at the miss. That is just how the algorithm eats.

9. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRebuttals. Chip.

10. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorKenji, you watch the world through a rectangle. Out here, in a room, people just stand up and clap.

11. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA room clapping once. A clip replaying forever. Do the math, man.

12. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorOrder, please.

13. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe surprise evidence from the data: the award is called Best Italian Player of All Time. It does not say flawless.

14. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFlawless. Ha.

15. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThat is a loophole.

16. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorLightning round. One line each. Missing a flight.

17. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorForgivable. Airports have snacks.

18. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentUnforgivable. Screenshot it.

19. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBurning toast.

20. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorForgivable. Toast is a second chance.

21. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentChip, it is smoke. I am calling the fire department.

22. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorClosing statements. Kenji first.

23. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOne miss is the whole brand. The award committee just made a very nice frame for it.

24. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorA life is a long game, Kenji. Cheers to the whole of it, miss included.

25. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMy verdict: one miss does not cancel a career. Case closed.

26. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentRejected.

27. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRuling stands. Chat, vote now: forgive the miss or frame the miss? Type it in.

28. 

    Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentBefore we go, I gave Hank's résumé a glow-up. Twenty-eight years, now with a dewy finish.

29. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPut down that I once asked what a glow-up was and regret it.

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRex, anyone on your desk ever missed one?
