Buzzmaster (12:05 PM)
Hey everyone, Hannah will be here shortly!
Chad (Savannah, GA)
First Buzz says in his intro to the MB that the Favre saga will be over soon and it's still not over. Now Buzz says Hannah will be here shortly and 11 minutes isn't shortly.
Hannah Storm (12:17 PM)
hey guys...know its late..we just got off the set for rehearsals...thanks for waiting!
Matt
Hannah, you have an extensive background in TV. You've covered a lot of important events. What is the challenge for you in tackling live SportsCenter? Thanks
Hannah Storm (12:19 PM)
matt...challenges abound! doing extensive highlights...getting back into the sports scene..being on the air for three hours straight with no food or water!!!!!its a really fun gig---and wouldn't be if it wasn't challenging.
Everyone Here
Hannah, you've got to do a better job than Josh did yesterday. Don't let Buzz hold you down. He likes the spotlight to be on him. His chats are terrible!
Hannah Storm (12:20 PM)
so you're laying down the gaunlet for josh! ha will let him know he has to pick up his game!
Scott (Indy)
Buzz wants to know what your favorite flavor of Poptart is. He had an incident this morning. Someone switched out on the poptarts.
Hannah Storm (12:21 PM)
why do i keep getting this question?? whats is it about espn and poptarts??? strawberry with vanilla frosting...i could eat two boxes right about now.
Zac (Bos via Cle)
Hannah, what are your thoughts on bacon? (note: your answer will in no way effect your status here in SN, I think)
Hannah Storm (12:22 PM)
these are very tough personal questions but for the record, i love bacon..i am a huge eater...unlike josh who eats like a rabbit. seriously. ,
JimO (Los Angeles)
Welcome to ESPN mornings! What are you most excited about in the new role?
Hannah Storm (12:23 PM)
hey! sports has always been a huge passion of mine...so talking aobut it every day for three hours is heaven...i also love interviewing and want to sit down with some big names...so far i have done the mannings, torres, phelps and tebow and its gone great...
Brett Favre
Hannah! You've answered something like 3 questions and not one of them has involved me. That's not how ESPN works!
Hannah Storm (12:25 PM)
brett...you have talked to everyone else at espn...why do we need to chat?
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
How do you feel about Matt Damon?
Hannah Storm (12:25 PM)
funny you should ask---he is one of my all time favorite movie stars...i met a lot of them in my last gig...love ben affleck also.
JB (TX)
Hannah, I've been a fan since you did At the Half on Channel 20 for the Rockets! What do you remember most about those days?
Hannah Storm (12:27 PM)
hey!! i remeber the wntire backcourt getting busted for drugs--which was terrible..obviously the celtics series...loved rudy t and olajuwon...those were great great days...and remeber the fight at the summit? that was a classic!
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
We have seen the role of the female sportscaster increase over the past few years. In your opinion, why has it taken such a long time?
Hannah Storm (12:28 PM)
i dont know cause i sure have been around forever...but i am really happy to see it and espn has so many great female anonuncers...
bob (Detroit)
Hannah, How do you think the Michiagan wolverines will do this year in football
Hannah Storm (12:29 PM)
depends in part on how they adapt to rodruiguez' new offense...he sure is shaking things up...ann arbor is one of the great all-time places to watch college football...and i am even saying that as a notre dame grad!
Neal (Philly)
Hannah, welcome to ESPN. What does Buzz bring you for lunch, since he is everyone's servant?
Hannah Storm (12:30 PM)
buzz has never brought me lunch. i have to bring my own leftovers. not even a poptart!!! i have never even met buzz as a matter of fact..
Scott (Indy)
For the record: who are your favorite sports teams?
Hannah Storm (12:32 PM)
ok.. houston oilers oops...forgot...they left town. ok, so new york giants and any team a manning plays on... and...houston rockets ....hotlanta braves... of course...notre dame football...but i am also kinda liking florida after a few trips to gainesville!
Kelso (Irvine, CA)
Did someone at ESPN accidentally use Google Earth? I can't believe they found the west coast.
Hannah Storm (12:33 PM)
my co host hialed from california..even played water polo at ucsb...total west coast guy...as for me..i lived all over the country...more of a texas/southern kinda gal...
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
Colin Cowherd just called you stunning on his radio show. Just thought I'd pass that along.
Hannah Storm (12:34 PM)
so colin got the money i slipped into his mailbox. good to know. colin, by the way, is no slouch. and a west coast guy at that..
Zac (Bos via Cle)
Do you like men to pop their collars? my buddy from San Diego wants to know, thanks.
Hannah Storm (12:35 PM)
no...its overly preppy to the max. chicks do not dig it. i know that you are the one who really wants to know so dont pawn that off on your pal.
Jaybird (MA)
Wow, your forty six? Whats your secret?
Hannah Storm (12:35 PM)
moisturizer. thats aobut it.
Michael (Connecticut)
Do you think the Rays make the playoffs Hannah?
Hannah Storm (12:36 PM)
yes. for the first time in many moons i dont think it will be the yanks or bosox.
Scott (Indy)
You've done a couple morning shows now (ESPN and the prior employer). What time do you have to get up in the morning?
Hannah Storm (12:37 PM)
four am...which is horrible. you never get used to it. worst part of the gig and if i have tons of typos on my chats..thats why. i blame everything on sleep deprivation!!!!
Wyatt
Hey Hannah! Just wanted to say I really enjoy when your on SC!
Hannah Storm (12:38 PM)
wyatt..you are my favorite fan. i havent even been on sportscenter yet! watch next week.
jrheineck (hartland, wi)
Brett Favre vs. T. Thompson? No question really. How could a team not want the leader of a team who took the team to o.t. in the NFC championship. Brett was 2nd in mvp voting to a player who had a freak season at QB, Tom Brady. Brett wants to play in Green Bay. Unless there is something we are not being told, the packer board should meet to remove T. Thompson from his position. He will go down in history as the villan. Aaron Rodgers has proven nothing. To hang your hopes on him is foolish football.
Hannah Storm (12:38 PM)
i get what you are saying but i am totally favred out. sorry!
Michael (Connecticut)
Really? You think both the Sox and Yankees will miss out? I predicted from the beginning it would be Phillies v.s. Red Sox in the WS...
Hannah Storm (12:39 PM)
not saying they couldnt get into playoffs just that i dont see them winning the division...especially if ortiz injury continues to bother him..
Steve (Cleveland)
At what age is it considered too old to live with your parents?
Hannah Storm (12:40 PM)
dear abby...hmmmmmm..depends on the situation but after college is a good time to strike out on your own, big guy! of course you can always go home for food and laundry
J.B. (Dunmore, PA)
So how difficult was it for you to watch your alma mater's 2007 football season?
Hannah Storm (12:41 PM)
more oainful than getting up at four in the morning every day. and i caught soo much greif because i am really obnoxious about the irish..
Ray Finkel (Mayor of Psychoville
Hannah, always remember, laces OUT!
Hannah Storm (12:42 PM)
thanks ace
Jason (Tx)
Who has the better chance of winning the national title, the SEC or the PAC 10
Hannah Storm (12:43 PM)
wow. good question...gotta go nwith the sec but all it takes is one great pac ten team..so ya never know. hey i didnt really answer your question
Zac (Bos via Cle)
What Irish fan isn't obnoxious about the irish? Go Bucks!
Hannah Storm (12:43 PM)
true
Hannah Storm (12:45 PM)
