Sports world captivated by Trump-Clinton debate
The most buzzed about topic in the sports world Sunday night wasn't the baseball playoff game or Giants-Packers showdown. In fact, it had nothing to do with sports.
Unless you count the controversial "locker room" quote.
On the heels of an explosive 48 hours on the presidential campaign trail, athletes from the Big Four sports and beyond were glued to their screens for the second debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. The reactions were as entertaining as the debate stage itself.
This is painful

Trump has no script other than Curt Schilling Facebook memes.

Just for reference. I work in a locker room (every day)... that is not locker room talk. Just so you know...

Why is there a Jerry Springer episode on every channel???

Fact check: "Locker-room talk" usually consists of awkwardly looking at the floor and complaining about the itchy towels.

All this heavy breathing seems more locker room-esque than anything #debate
