<p>October 3rd, 2015: a post-game interview is cut short when Clemson Tigers&rsquo; coach Dabo Swinney gives thanks to the Lord.  ;</p>
<p>The 12th-ranked Clemson Tigers managed to defeat the 5th-ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Saturday with a score of 24-22. Tigers&rsquo; Head Coach Dabo Swinney thanked &ldquo;the good Lord&rdquo; and his deceased father during an inspiring post game interview in which he also praised his team&#8217;s guts, heart, and abilites. ;</p>
<p>But nobody knows what he said next, because a split-second after Swinney ;thanked &ldquo;the good Lord,&#8221; ;ESPN cut to the studio where two oblivious anchors sat checking their tablets for an awkward 15 seconds before the station cut back to the interview. ;</p>
<p>Keri Potts, ESPN&rsquo;s Senior Director of Public Relations, issued the following apology on Twitter: ;&ldquo;As a result of an error in TV transmission, we inadvertently missed 12 seconds of Dabo Swinney&rsquo;s postgame interview. We apologize.&rdquo; ;</p>
<p>I for one am embarassed that in an effort not to offend anyone, ;agencies like ESPN feel they must censor even the slightest religious remark. As can be expected, the Twitter ;post was met with criticism ;from anyone who could see through this paper-thin apology. Harsh comments included the call to boycott ESPN and all ;affiliated ;companies. ;</p>
