Just when you thought John Clark couldn’t be any more humiliated from the YouTube clip of him attempting to dance at a Bruce Springsteen concert, the wolfman himself, Howard Eskin, took time out of their Sports Final show on NBC10 last night to basically retell all of the jokes that either I or The Fightins commenters came up with on Friday when the video first surfaced.

Towards the end of the show, Mr. Clark sat there as Eskin — as if he as any room to talk — pointed out all of the douchey dance moves and belittled the oaf-like sportscaster on live TV. Then John, obviously eager to have someone share in the embarrassment with him, outed WIP radio host Brian Startare as the fellow who was on the receiving end of the now famous double-fist-pound-EXPLOSION.

Have a look-see:

And of course, absolutely no mention of the origin of the clip, The Fightins dot com. Not that I’d expect any different from two self-proclaimed tools, but I thought it warrants mentioning.

In what is easily the front-runner for ‘YouTube of the Year’, John Clark of NBC10 Sports Final and the Phillies post-game show on myphl17 fame was spotted dancing his little heart out at the Bruce Springsteen concert the other night at the Spectrum.  It’s not like he’s that hard to notice, the guy is about 6′7″ and featured on local television seven nights a week, but that didn’t stop him from acting a fool once Bruuuuuuuuuce broke into his SMASH HIT! from 2007, “Radio Nowhere” (and yes, I had to Google the lyrics).

Watch here as John gets down and shows off his signature dance moves including the point-in-the-air-while-hopping-and-singing-along, or the Hulk Hogan inspired cup-your-hand-to-your-ear bit, and he even gets a little help from a friend on the double-fist-pound-EXPLOSION finale.

I ♥ YouTube.

Sounds kinky, right?

I wasn’t really paying attention to this Jamie Moyer interview conducted by NBC10’s John Clark at an area B&C Collectibles store, but it includes something about the Moyers’ bedroom, a couple champagne bottles, some shelves, his locker nameplate, and a Ziploc bag full of dirt.

I’m actually quite surprised he would be this open about his bedroom exploits during a local news segment. Feel free to draw your own conclusions, after a brief word from Camelback Mountain — where there’s Something for Everyone™!

Lenny Dykstra was in court yesterday for something that I don’t quite understand involving an accounting firm that claimed was owed upwards of $138,000 from the former All-Star centerfielder. That’s obviously not what’s important here.

Before, during, and after the proceedings, Nails was a non-stop supply of entertaining quotes. Here’s a sampling (via NBC10):

When questioned about the allegations from Halcyon Jets that he bounced a $7,000 check earlier this month, sayeth The Dude:

“That’s my fuckin’ ashtray money, bro, I don’t even know if I flew on their plane.”

Assuming a member of the NY Post didn’t necessarily believe that Lenny was a rich man, he reiterated:

“See that purple label, bro? (pointing to the inside of his suit jacket) That’s seven large”

And what about his half-crazy antics and demeanor?

“I like to pretend I got hit by a lot of pitches.”

He also lamented the sight of a hunched-over elderly woman crossing the street.

“See that? I’m going to be walking like that. I crashed into too many walls.”

Finally, here’s what he said about the company suing him, DDK & Co.:

“They folded like Mitch Williams in the ninth. There was no case. There was nothing.”

Never change, Leonard. Never change.

Scott Palmer, the Director of Public Affairs for the Phillies was involved in a prank gone awry last night at Citizens Bank Park. While reporter Dawn Timmeney was wrapping up an on-field interview with the legendary Sarge Matthews about how he almost-singlehandedly beat the Dodgers in the ‘83 NLCS, Mr. Palmer playfully tossed a ball in the general vicinity of the two which was supposedly intended for Sarge.

However, the ball never reached Sarge, instead the errant throw caromed off of Timmeny’s breast before bouncing off her lap and onto the ground. Being the professional that she is, she didn’t skip a beat.

The evidence:
