Whoopsies. Either someone used the wrong tape or someone didn't tell Doris Burke that she was, in fact, live and not doing a recorded segment during ESPN's buildup to Game 3 of Mavericks-Thunder. As a result of Burke either not knowing she was live or not actually being live, she made a couple of mistakes in her spot and tried to do them over, which is a perfectly understandable thing for someone to want do if they do not think they are live.

So, the re-dos are kind of funny. Then she mouths the f-bombs and the lulz increase exponentially.
Of course, as always, the reaction from the internet was completely sensible and forgiving of Ms. Burke. Just kidding! Approximately 90 percent of people who tweeted something about either Burke or ESPN’s mistake immediately jumped to the conclusion that she made the mistakes she did because she’s a woman. You stay classy, internet!
Doris Burke happens to know a lot about basketball and there’s a really good chance that this was not her fault, so while it’s fun to get a chuckle out of someone mouthing the f-bomb on camera, the entire internet should probably cool their jets a bit.
