Tyler F&%$ing Palko

I can't believe I never brought this up when it happened.
So Pitt QB a couple weeks ago, after a big win (for us) over Notre Dame, after breaking a record (most TD's thrown by a QB vs. ND ever), and seconds after the game ended, Pitt QB Tyler Palko was interviewed on the field by NBC. After probably the game of his life so far, he said "I'm so proud of this f*&^ing team" in his comments. There was obviously no tape delay (as there's supposed to be!) because this aired. NBC broadcasters apologized, and basically trashed Tyler for saying it. Meanwhile, it's their own fault for getting in a player's face seconds after a big emotional win, and not having a tape delay... Tyler apologized profusely at the post-game press conference.

To my knowledge, NBC has not been fined by the FCC.
