data-mm-id=”_p6rqa4tdt”>Charissa Thompson has some experience roaming the NFL sideline. She pulled back the curtain for viewers during an interview with Pardon My Take on Thursday in regards to the sideline interview with a team's head coach either before or after halftime. Thompson informed PFT Commenter and Dan Katz that sometimes she would simply make up those interviews. For a variety of reasons. If a coach didn't want to talk or there wasn't time to grab him before he got to the sideline or the broadcast came back quicker than the team, Thompson said she would just make something up to give the audience.

Skenes has been up to 102 mph this spring already and dominated in hi…

Here's how that went. .@MadDogUnleashed is taking over while @stephenasmith is out 🤣 pic.twitter.com/4rustssz64— First Take (@FirstTake) March 14, 2024Like a leftfielder working through some things in Spring Training, Russo went 0-for-3 in knowing his co-hosts names. Or maybe he was just strapping on a global brain and throwing out some new nicknames for everyone to chew on. Perhaps Domonique Foxworth will henceforth be known as Our Little Pal There Dominic, Brian Windhorst will become Our Good Little Buddy There Windenhurst, and Molly Qerim will become Molly Querim.
