The Jokeman Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 anyone remember her.........did she die? 288213[/snapback] It might be dated but according to this Where Are They Now? site she was recovering from cancer.
BleedBillsBlue Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 anyone remember her.........did she die? 288213[/snapback] I was hoping she commited suicide. What a B word.
Buftex Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 While I wouldn't wish anyone death, she was pretty awful....her typical Monday morning shows, during the NFL season, comprised of her just screaming, over and over "Just score more points than the other team...score more points" to anyone that complained about their team... I remember Steve Czaven, around that time, was the morning guy on Sporting News Radio....he used to refer to her as "The Flatulant Sports Pig"...classless, but still funny!
clumping platelets Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I liked her Sportsbabe drafts, but otherwise was not impressed
jester43 Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 interesting. while i did not enjoy her broadcasts, i would not wish her death either. but that's just me.
Tom Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 Nanci Donnellan left the business I believe for health issues (ie. She's the size of a blimp) She wrote at least one book........

Reveals how she rocketed to success in the macho world of sports broadcasting, and became the host the number one sports talk show on the airwaves. Includes her uncensored insights on such topics as greedy owners, agents and players, O.J. Simpson, and opera. Illustrated. 197 pages. Published by HarperCollins.
Nanker Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 how did she get to # 1 ? 288549[/snapback] She rolled over everyone in her way? Maybe it was a downhill race.
OnTheRocks Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 i think she ate herself....now she is just a head.....sitting on a table somplace.
Marv's Neighbor Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I was living in Seattle when she was the local celeb. I believe she came to Seattle from Tampa. She was very good, but again got in too many people's faces and got fired. After she left Seattle, the station had some promo's made saying that they were: THE STATION THAT LAUNCHED THE BABE! Sorry to hear about the cancer situation, I hope she recovers!
seq004 Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I liked her because she was honest. Even though she was a Phins fan whenever I called in to ask her why Brian Cox and the phins choked against the Bills again (which they did a lot in the 90's) she was really honest. She didn't like Ohio State and could identify with that. Hope she gets well.
sweet baboo Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 so...was she ever hot or did the "babe" title come from her own delusional mind
Arkady Renko Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 so...was she ever hot or did the "babe" title come from her own delusional mind 288904[/snapback] I am actually not trying to keep piling on her, but I always thought the name came from babe in the Babe Ruth sense. Not like the slang term for hot lady.
gantrules Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 I believe the Sports babe is the one to coin the phrase "First time, long time."
