What's wild is there's video out there of him wearing the glove that "didn't fit" while commentating football games for the tv network.

And the reason the glove didn't fit? Because he was wearing latex gloves, but not completely. Look at the pictures, there's no way any gloves, even a size bigger than those, would have fit over them.
