The first half of our interview with Jennifer Sterger brought over 20,000 eyes to the Blitz in just less than two days. We were lucky to work with Jennifer's Site Admin Roger - the man behind the scenes - to get the meeting together. He also provided the pictures and audio and more than we can mention right now (but wait - there will be more news soon...).
The Blitz hopes that the combo of both articles clears up, once and for all, web spread misconceptions about Sterger. But we know that it won't. Some will continue to write 3rd person accounts with no citations as fact. Boring web black belts bashing from behind a laptop.
Jenn counts the Blitz, Deadspin, ESPN, and Sports Illustrated as some of the websites that she reads every day - so we had to ask her all the controversial questions. And she balked at none of them. The Jets Gameday host was smart, funny, and...Anyone who is reading Dearly Devoted Dexter (my wife Wendy's and my favorite show as well) is not going to shy away from answering anything thrown at her. And today? 09/05/08 marks the 3 year anniversary of Musberger spotting her...
So, back to where we left off.


Bob's Blitz: OK, let’s clear up another one.

Jennifer Sterger: Sure…

BB: ESPN Radio. Erin Andrews. Suck it or 2nd?

JS: Laughter. Second! S-E-C-O-N-D. It's so stupid if you read the quote anywhere it makes absolutely no sense as 'Suck it' - it's not a coherent thought. I was misquoted. If you read through the transcript it is a total misquote. If you are going to go out of your way to transcribe something just get it right. That's all I'm asking. The guy in Tampa blew it out of proportion and then kept asking me to come back on and I said there is nothing to clarify except maybe you need a better microphone.

BB: Is there audio of this?

JS: Oh yeah, there is audio. I actually have audio that is slowed down three times so it is extremely evident that it is 'second'. I was speaking off points. I said 'first' I am on the internet [compared to Erin at the time being on TV], then I said 'second' while the hosts were talking over me. Bad microphones, bad audio, and just someone looking for extra publicity and wanting to drag my name through the mud. If you want to get hits that way then by all means go for it.


The Blitz has the transcript and the slowed down audio. Oliver Stone JFK like...Audio here.

Not on this audio: Jenn: "It's so funny, people compare me and they are just like "Well she is no Erin Andrews" and I'm like..."

Slowed down Audio starts there: "Well, number one, I'm on the computer..." Host #1: makes catty noise interrupting her between her saying 'number one' and 'computer'...Jenn: "Second.." Hosts 1&2: Laughing and starting to say "Here come the claws as Jenn repeats "Second.."

So that's all cleared up now.


JS: I have people like Roger and my family who keep an eye on the internet and we try to stop people from slandering me. But I know how the internet works and...People just tag things to get hits. I'm just so glad that you took the time to listen to my answers and print the truth. People always want the juicy answers and really sometimes my life is just not all that interesting. People trying to start drama.

BB: The New England Patriots. Suck or first again?

JS: Laughter. Depends on Brady's ankle. He's the workhorse and what he and Belicheck are able to do. Especially with a few strategically placed cameras. I'm thinking of maybe a really cool outfit for the game on September 14th to counteract any cameras. It can be StergGate.

BB: Speaking of cameras. When is your movie The Tenant starring Saw 3 and 4's J. LaRose coming out?
