Just about three months after her alleged one-night stand with Michigan star player Glen Rice, Sarah Palin (then Sarah Heath) reported on a Wolverines game for Anchorage's KTUU-TV. In the clip above, she's reporting on Michigan's 80-67 loss against Purdue on March 3, 1988 in to clinch the Big Ten championship game. Her alleged former lover had just 11 points and shot 5 for 16 from the field in the game, so he goes unmentioned.
Okay this might just be the result of knowing that Palin and Rice bumped uglies, but does EVERYTHING she says in this sportscast seem packed with sexual innuendo to anybody else?
Well looky there, she's been using a teleprompter longer than Barack Obama!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if any others will step up and acknowledge they were banging the baracuda also too.
ReplyDelete"... does EVERYTHING she says in this sportscast seem packed with sexual innuendo to anybody else?"
ReplyDeleteAlmost all sportscasts are packed with sexual innuendo - nothing new there!
I find it more interesting that she was perfectly capable of reading from a teleprompter. Why is that skill beyond her now? What the h3ll happened to her reading ability?
And why didn't her parents do something about that wonky eye? Lazy eye is not unusual for kids. I had one, too. My parents took me to an eye doctor, and it was corrected by wearing corrective glasses for awhile. Some friends had more difficulties with that condition and used eye patches for a time. It's correctable! ... if your parents give damn.
I'm wondering, did Sarah give a blow by blow description during her tv sports broadcast?
ReplyDeleteHe penetrates...
He dribbles...
He shoots...
Glen Rice scores!

ReplyDeleteSo maybe the story about Todd beating up the only Black student at the school, wasn't about his being Black, but because he was banging the Baracuda?

Hi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteDoesn't it just really suck that TRUTH is usually a pretty damn good defense for a libel suit?
Still, I hear that Van Flein could use the business, since his legislative staff career is in the shitters.
So do it. Do it for Todd. File those libel & defamation lawsuits. Discovery will be a hoot.
Have a great day, Sarah.
Hi Gryphen! Hot off the press from Today - Toad's "statement" is on MSNBC.com. He didn't have the man-berries to respond in a real-time interview. Mr. McGinniss pulled no punches and reaffirmed what a douchebag $arah really is.It's only 5 more sleeps until THE ROGUE is released. I'm eagerly waiting with glee to witness the fall of the house of $arah! Judgment Day is coming fast $arah; be very afraid...
ReplyDeleteHere's Todd the Tool's statement :
ReplyDeletehttp://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/44526235#.TnHoqKN5mSM
Statement from Todd Palin:
"This is a man who has been relentlessly stalking my family to the point of moving in right next door to us to harass us and spy on us. He traffics in innuendo and falsehoods. A few years ago he interviewed members of Sarah's administration for a magazine article, and afterwards they said that he was the most disingenuous and intellectual dishonest writer they'd ever dealt with. He's spent the last year interviewing marginal figures with an axe to grind in order to churn out a hit piece to satisfy his own creepy obsession with my wife. I'd ask that people consider these facts when evaluating his latest lies."
"I'd ask the fathers and husbands of America to consider our privacy when one summer day I found this guy on the deck of the rental property, just 18 feet away next door to us, staring like a creep at my wife while she mowed the lawn in her shorts, unbeknownst to her that he was prying. As well as our teenage daughters while they tried to enjoy our traditional Alaskan summer days outdoors. Joe's son told the media he advised his dad not to move from the East Coast to become our next door neighbor, but said his dad 'was just waiting for Todd to be out of the picture.' Sarah has never spoken to this intruder into our lives, our friends and family don't speak to him, so we have no idea where he would come up with content for his book. He was on our doorstep one day trying to make conversation with our son until Track cut the conversation short after discerning Joe's odd behavior, and I spoke to him one time when I saw him 18 feet away, just to find out who he was. He took that conversation and reported it to the media as me 'threatening' him."

No denial, just more of the same hurling insults. Looks like Sarah wrote the statement.
What's wrong with Sarah Palin being a fan of the NBA?
ReplyDeleteSo what, Sarah is into "Nice Black Asses"!
Just watched Joe's segment on the Today show. Seems as if the Palins are continuing to paint him as a preverted creep, obsessed with Sarah, and that anything revealed in his book is unsubstantiated garbage.
ReplyDeleteI guess those who worship her will keep on supporting her and those who don't, won't. Nothing will change. Sad.

Sarah Palin loves getting attention and has been seen in the front row of DWTS even though fat Biscuit was not part of the cast last season.
ReplyDeleteDo you think Todd and Sarah will go this year?
They have something for Todd and Sarah.
They have a black NBA player shaking his booty for Sarah and a special star for Todd. Guess who?
Todd looks so sad, he just found out on IM that he wasn't the First Dude or second dude or even the third dude.
ReplyDeleteWow, she's awful. Out of breath, can't pronounce half the names, droppin" her "G"'s, and making Sylvia Plath sound manic in comparison. Why so sad Sarah?
ReplyDeleteI can see why her broadcasting career was cut very short. Even her cohort at the desk can't stand her - he makes fun of her at the end.
Todd you've been kissing the mouth that teabagged collegiate and NBA players.
ReplyDeleteThe screen photo showing "Lots of Dogs" is funny... Glen Rice's nickname was Big Dog.
ReplyDeleteTodd.. how do you feel about Sarah pounding the (bed)boards with Glen?
Even as a "professional"news reader she dropped her G's. Obviously her Broadcast Journalism degree didn't teach her how to speak properly.

"I know, can you believe it? It still puts a smile on my face every time I think about it."
NBC did a pretty good job discrediting Joe's book. Just read the NYT article and they did the same thing. I get the impression that the dismissal may be due to the creep factor of him moving next to her-- whether it's fair or not. I just wish Joe had stayed somewhere else so his book wouldn't be so easily dismissed. It's so frustrating to have the book come out and not be taken seriously.
ReplyDeleteSince Sarah was interviewing and taking "dictation" from Glen Rice in Molly's college dorm room and getting paid for it by KTUU, does that make Sarah a paid prostitute?
ReplyDeleteWhat does the Alaska Dept of Law or the Anchorage Police Dept has to say about this?
Or is it okay because Sarah eventually became the governor of the Great State of Alaska?
On SPAlaska Todd called Sarah "juicy".
ReplyDeleteMaybe he heard Glen call her that name? Or Brad?
To me, it sounded like Todd was throwing a barb in Sarah when he said it.
Maybe Todd knows she fucked a lot of guys.
Just watched the Today show segment. They really played up the angle of questioning Joe's credibility as an author and of his sources. They showed Todd's "statement" several times throughout. Talked about the cocaine use, using kids as props, and Glen Rice affair. For Joe's side, he said he tried to be as fair as he could but all of her allies refused to be interviewed. Today show implied that since he only talked to her enemies, the book is unfair. They did not touch on the stuff that could really damage her...but of course if there is an embargo on the book, they haven't read it yet, have they? I don't think it's a good strategy to talk to news people who haven't read the book and would just paint it with a wide stripe as a hit piece.
ReplyDeleteSarah continues to prove that she has never had a clue about hair, make-up, how to dress or speak. Also. Of course. There.
ReplyDeleteThat speech impediment is really unfortunate.
ReplyDeleteThis Sarah Palin incident makes you wonder how many of FOX's blonde news journalists slept their way onto tv like Sarah did?
ReplyDeleteBristol Palin is into hard, cold, canvas tent floors.
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin is into hard, cold, wooden gym floors.
I wonder what Sally Heath was into?
The hits keep on coming! Lovely.
ReplyDeleteInstant Karma's done got you Palins.
BTW the Palins and their trolls do not get it. What is in print stays in the public eye forever. Joe McG is a respected author. Ms. Heath (formerly Palin) is a proven whiner, liar and coward. Guess who's going to win in the end?
What's the matter Sarah-cat got your tongue?
As for that prick she was married to: C'mon Todd, I'm calling you out. I could beat you with one hand tied behind my back. I'm a mean old lady not afraid of punks like you. Don't believe me? A self defense instructor taught me how to take down a man (you are a man, right?) with one move. And I don't mean fellatio either you nimrod.

ReplyDeleteShe's a cold blast from Alaska ingrained with common sense,
ReplyDeleteShe's not a Harvard lawyer but she knew what the Founders meant.
A cold blast from the north that freezes Congress in their tracks,
With God and the Tea Party, she's gonna take it back.
Sarah Palin, she won't listen to their bunk,
Sarah Palin coming South to hunt some skunk,
Sarah Palin – she'll throw 'em all in jail,
And when she gets to Washington, it'll be cold as hell.
Sarah has the wisdom to walk through an open door,
She's stomping out the wretches where the evil lies in store.
She will scrub the floors and sweep the riff-raff into cracks,
With God and the Tea Party, she's gonna take it back.

Wasn't the house Joe rented there BEFORE the Palins built their monstrosity? Maybe they should have complained when newly released convicts lived there, when it was a half way house? One older man is more threatening than a bunch of newly released prisoners? Too bad the McCain team did not do their job, and check this sleazey woman out before adding her to their ticket.
ReplyDeleteSuch unmitigated talent.
ReplyDeleteI think I did detect her eyebrows going way up when she said "Michigan".
It's interesting that supposedly Rice doesn't confirming having sex (anywhere incl the book), but sites are saying he does.
ReplyDeleteI think it's just thinking about the sex. Even when I watched this clip year ago, I didn't lift an eyebrow during any of it, even when she says beaver. hahahahahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteI am still on the fence.
Look, is it any wonder Todd and Sarah defend each other? She's not running for office, though she studies for specific things to provide her assessments of Obama pisspoor job. This is a couple who has been through more than anyone else could handle, YET they are still strong.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed. United they stand indeed. "We are each others best friend" is right Todd.
Just as tacky and inarticulate then as she is now. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteI thought Molly went to U of Idaho too. So confusing.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't Todd feel like an ass.
ReplyDeleteIt just dawned on him that Sarah would tell her family she'll be back, she's going out to get some Rice and then she would return home empty handed smelling like a locker room full of dirty jock straps.
The Fundies keep throwing their cash around, trying desperately to bolster what they thought was the perfect pseudo-Xtain puppet to suck in (no pun intended) the brainwashed demographic of Amurika. NYT, NBC, the Today Show...no matter how hard poor Sairy tries to play the downtrodden-y, maverick-y, Housewife-y victim, the act is wearing really, really thin. TAAAHD's "statement" sounds SO manufactured and desperate, doesn't it? The more Those In Charge try to bash this book, the better it'll sell. The story made the front page of the NY Daily News, with "Saucy Sarah" as the headline--classic! Of course, the RWNJ PR squad will label the outlets reporting this news as "just tabloids," but how different would something like this be if it were President Obama or another high-profile Dem? Look at the way Anthony Weiner was run into the ground--and there was no evidence of an affair or sexual contact, just racy tweeted pix. The RW would be erecting (oops, me bad) billboards all over the place.
ReplyDeleteThe Bots will carry on their crawl through the blogs trying to spin and deflect, but I'm sure that even some of the most die-hard Palinistas will be turned off by the "black dude" connection when the little ol' seed of doubt suddenly sinks into their thick skulls.
However, if Creepella emerges from this icy blast unscathed, we'll all know that there's something indescribably diabolical promoting her, even bigger and more nefarious than we suspect now.
PS--the NY Daily News has continued to run Doonesbury all this week--kudos to them. Mr. Knishes is enjoying the storyline as well!
5:03am--
ReplyDeleteHoping you're not a troll, but if you are, are you all out of defensive scripts for the moment and into posting delightful musical interludes in their place?
If you're not a Bot, my apologies.

Easy to fix! All Sarah has to do is remove Glen Rice's marbles from her mouth.
Sarah Palin now an X-rated punch line after revelation of Glen Rice tryst in Joe McGinniss book
ReplyDelete...The next time Sarah Palin complains about her treatment by any media member, that reporter might want to inform her that at least he or she is not literally sleeping with sources. Because according to a new book, Palin violated the most basic of journalistic tenets, bedding college basketball star Glen Rice in 1987 when she was a young TV sports reporter for KTUU in Anchorage.
There is plenty of funny and jaw-dropping material in Joe McGinniss' book, "The Rogue," but the one serious, grimace-producing revelation is that Palin had a one-night stand while covering the 20-year-old Michigan player who happened to be in town for a basketball tournament.
According to the Alaskan's acquaintances and neighbors interviewed by McGinniss, Palin, 23, had a "fetish" about black men. Rice reportedly confirmed the affair when asked by the author, though he wasn't commenting on it Wednesday from his home in Coral Gables, Fla.
This is the stuff that drives legitimate women reporters nuts, makes members of AWSM (Association for Women in Sports Media) furious because it tears at credibility and plays to false stereotypes. Palin had learned her ethics the previous fall and spring as a journalism major at the University of Idaho - her fifth college in six years - where future Bulls coach Tim Floyd was coaching.
The allegation about Rice, of course, is just one more swinging strike against Palin...

Is it true Sarah Heath appeared on KTUU only twice, and has a substitute? (so much for her credentials as a "sports reporter"). But my gawd, after seeing this clip, how was she allowed on that second time?
ReplyDeleteWhat a snarky, bitchy, sorry excuse for a performance. As if she was bored with it & it was beneath her.
ReplyDeleteIt appears that despite that five year undergrad degree, simple sarah never learned that there is a g at the end of the present participle of a verb.
Moron.
I lasted for about two minutes. That wonky eye and terrible enunciation did me in. How desperate was this station that it put Sarah in the sports chair? She was pretty, but her hair was really a bad example of 80s big hair.
ReplyDelete"Broadcast School dropout..." (Sung to the tune of "Beauty School Dropout" from Grease.)
Holy shit, that was astoundingly terrible. Wonder what she had to do to get THAT job? So,Serror thinks she is going to help the MSM by helping them get back to those principles of the 5 W's? Superb idea.
ReplyDeleteWho? Sarah Palin & Glen Rice
What? The Nasty
When? While she was dating Toad
Where? Her sister's dorm (klassy)
Why? Have you SEEN Glen?
I think you're hearing things, Gryphen. I was waiting for her to say he was "limp & impotent".
ReplyDeleteGlen Rice must of thought Sarah Palin was a terrible piece of ass or just plain psychotic because he did not go back for seconds.
ReplyDeleteNow President Obama has to take the anger from Sarah because Obama won't throw Sarah a bone(r) and she can't stand rejection.
Todd have you ever noticed that Sarah looks sad during the holidays after coming home from the mall?
ReplyDeleteShe is sad because she passed one of those mall stands that was selling those Hickory Farm sausage logs and she misses Glen Rice.
To be honest, I can believe that $arah's tryst was more about the celebrity and less about the black. We know how bedazzled she is by anything connected to celebrity.
ReplyDeleteShe's just shallow.
JenniferinVA said about Sarah's sportscastin':
ReplyDelete"Even her cohort at the desk can't stand her - he makes fun of her at the end."
That would be my old friend Tim Woolson. Of course he couldn't stand her. He actually has a brain.
I'm not even going to pretend to be impartial, but wow, she was awful! That was so hard to follow and so unpleasant to listen to. It was a chore to hear the whole thing out. Aaack.
ReplyDelete"Slammed it in" did he?
ReplyDeleteDamn, she is terrible. She must have let some one bone her in exchange for being on the air.
ReplyDeleteShe didn't like final Gs even then.
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 5:17,
You're as big an asshole as Sarah and Todd. Do you really think spewing your idiotic bullshit can undo all that is known about the Palin clan? You just keep singing their praises because you look like a bigger dick every time you do so.
Anon at 5:17 AM is totally Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteApparently she was very good t this either...........
ReplyDeleteTo me Sarah's language didn't seem as sexual as it did snarky and nasty. It was also poor English such as "they are beating someone bad". Really much likes she talks now without the word salad since she had written it out beforehand and it was pretty much reporting statistics.
ReplyDeleteGryphen, Are you on crack now? There is nothing in this broadcast other than bad broadcasting from someone who can barely keep up with the teleprompter.
ReplyDeleteEVERYHING she says is packed with sexual inuendo, and even directly related to sexual terms, even now.
ReplyDeleteI think it's more obvious in context of what we know about Rice and Ms.Heath.
If it was any other woman, I'd be the first to defend her. This happened years ago, and I admit that I was and am no "Angel" by any definition of the term. BUT I never portrayed myself as a shining example of a "moral woman", I never bashed the president of the United States and allowed racist imagery and hate speech in my presence, and I never fomented hate nor violence by using angry speeches and hiding behind the constitution.
So, Sarah teleprompter reading, "g" dropping, screechy wench deserves the scrutiny she's getting. Remember, she was almost a heartbeat away from being president (i STILL shudder at that thought).
The botheads, bless their white cotton socks, keep (falsely) comparing this to Bill Clinton. He didn't sic Hillary to respond to the scandal, he did the decent thing and lied about it, then came clean. And it didn't matter at all, he left the country better off than what he inherited.
I'm somewhat happily married to a man I dated in high school, then broke up with, and what happened in that time, we both have discussed and dealt with the truth among ourselves. We have a somewhat decent, well educated family, and there's no way I'd need my husband to speak for me.
There's no such thing as a perfect marriage, a perfect happy marriage, and if there was one, The palins are not even close, despite what her followers believe.
The republicans act like GWBush never existed, they have to go back to Ronnie, the divorced GOP family values dude as an example. Why is that? Because he was a good orator? cough cough cough.
I wonder why no one can find anything in Barack and Michelle's backgroung? Not even rumors.
;o)
He's the rill dill, Todd's the jerkin gerkin.
Using a teleprompter and not even able to read it well. Looks like she got a bargain basement degree in communications. If I were the U. of Idaho, I would be ashamed for giving her a degree.
