Empty the Bench

Oh, that Matt Millen is such a kidder. Here’s what happens when NFL Draft coverage is stretched so thin over the course of three days that ESPN is forced to turn to disgraced ex-Detroit Lions GM Matt Millen for brief commentary.

Because, you know, Millen was such a prolific evaluator of talent.

From the Detroit News:

Matt Millen has made another draft-day blunder. The former Lions president and CEO, who had some questionable draft picks during his tenure with the team, was forced to apologize for an on-air Polish joke he made Saturday to fellow ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski.

At one point during Saturday’s coverage, the two began talking about fried bologna sandwiches, and Millen said, “Ask any polack from Buffalo how they like them, right Jaws?”
