Kelly Crull not returning as Thunder sideline reporter

by Royce Young on July 26, 2012 at 11:37 am 112 Comments

Via Mel Bracht of NewsOK:

Kelly Crull will not be returning for her third season as the Oklahoma City Thunder sideline reporter, a Thunder official confirmed Thursday morning.

“Kelly will not return as the sideline reporter for next season,” Dan Mahoney, vice president of communications and community relations, said in an email. “We are in the process of finding a new sideline reporter.”

Crull could not be immediately reached for comment.

For shame. Kelly always did a great job in that role. Best of luck to her in wherever she’s headed next.

"Who? Ah yes, the one who asked the SAME QUESTIONS during every interview. See yaaaaaaaaaaa."

I completely agree!  Yes, she was nice to look at, but she was a terrible sideline reporter. Same repetitive questions, not really any good sideline information. The Thunder can do better.

Too bad. She was as gorgeous in person as on tv, but she is like 4 ft tall and has like a 6 inch waist.

Her nose is only so-so, but her eyes are top tier. Do you know if Kelly is Jewish by chance?

I noticed the reason wasn't posted so I'm assuming it's because Kelly took up my offer to sit around and make my babies and work out.  Is that too creepy?

Way early to talk about it, but the talk of fantasy football on the radio makes me think about it. Has there been in the past a DT Fantasy Basketball league? If not, there should be going forward (or multiple leagues, if there's enough interest).

Great idea actually. I'm in

But I must warn you - I came first in the Houston H2H Auction 280422 league this year. The only one I've ever done. So I've got, like, a 100% record.

Jus' sayin'...

 @cleandoe  @ou_sas Is that all? I came in first in the Chicago H2H Auction 97452 with a stacked team of Monta Ellis, Bynum, Lawson, Greg Monroe, and Jeremy Lin.

 @cleandoe We'd hate to blemish that perfect record, wouldn't we?

 

I did my first FBB league this year and came in 3rd, but it was a lot of fun. Played with a bunch of Thunder fans so there were people picking up hometown favorites... which made for an interesting first week of the season when somebody played a Serge-Perkins frontcourt in FBB.

 @OBoymuzik I figured that people on the board, if they started, would probably finish. I just didn't know if it had actually happened.

 @OBoymuzik  @ou_sas Via ESPN (of all places)

 

"And then there's Taco. (See?) Played by YouTube sensation Jon Lajoie, Taco's character embodies the wackiness of his name. He comes out of nowhere. He sings wildly inappropriate songs at children's birthday parties. He inexplicably vanishes, only to reappear moments later after somehow engaging in trysts. And he never has any idea about what's going on in the group's fantasy football league. (Or about anything else, for that matter.)

 

Nevertheless, he somehow wins anyway, despite failing to update his depth chart to account for bye weeks or take his team off auto-draft. Which, of course, irritates his friends to no end."

 

So yeah, I guess I'm the 'taco' of DT.

 @Jax Raging Bile Duct  @OBoymuzik Perhaps if that forum that Royce referenced once upon a summer post happens, there'd be enough continual interest - because there might be continual posting there - that people remember to check.

 @ou_sas  @OBoymuzik They do have them every year. I joined one last year on this board, auto-drafted, and then never logged back in - mostly because I forgot about it. I'm sure whoever invited me to that league will never invite me back again.

 @ThunderChick2010  @BrockSuede I'm pretty sure there should be a negative livefyre points penalty for posting a nickleback video, but all the reference material I can find on the subject mention point losses in the hundred of thousands, and you don't even have 5K yet, so I'm thinking there must be some sort of clerical error in the copy of the bylaws that I've got.
