Traina Thoughts: Lawrence O'Donnell's REALLY Wants People To Stop Hammering

You need to watch MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell flip out during a show.

1. This is one of those days where sports has to take a back seat to something much more entertaining. MSNBC host, Lawrence O'Donnell, must have an enemy inside the cable news network because somebody leaked this eight-minute video of him behaving very badly during a recent telecast. It seems that during commercial breaks, O'Donnell had several complaints for his staff. These things ranged from anarchy in the control room to someone hammering on the floor above him. The result was several profanity-laced tirades, tense body language and overall hostility. The video is eight-minutes long, but if you are pressed for time, you can fast forward to the four-minute mark when business really picks up. Sit back and enjoy.

Now watch TSN anchor Jay Onrait do a great imitation of O'Donnell.

4. For some reason, Richard Sherman is all upset because the NFL puts out injury reports ever week. "Maybe somebody should look into that, because I thought we weren't a gambling league and we were against all those things. But our injury report is specifically to make sure the gamblers get their odds right,” said Sherman. Thankfully, the great Brent Musburger set Sherman straight.
