Dan and Keith on ESPN Radio called Hurricanes owner Karmanos a scumbag & a douchebag---Raissman

Maybe there's something in the stale air of a sportstalk radio studio that makes talkies say things they probably wouldn't blurt out on a checkout line at the supermarket. Certainly not in front of their kids. Or their grandmother. This thought occurred again Tuesday while listening to Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann, on ESPN-1050, hammer Peter Karmanos Jr., who owns the Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes. Among other things, Patrick and Olbermann cited what they considered Karmanos' shabby treatment of fans when the team was known as the Hartford Whalers. Karmanos purchased the Whale in 1994 and moved the team to North Carolina three years later. At one point in their critique, Patrick called Karmanos a "scumbag." Shortly after that tasteless reference, Olbermann called Karmanos a "douchebag."
