Dan Orlovsky roasted Mike Greenberg during a hilarious segment Thursday morning on ESPN’s Get Up.
Greenberg, a diehard Jets fan, was happily showing off a new framed Aaron Rodgers Jets jersey, which was being held for the entire segment by a Get Up staffer as Greenberg discussed the Jets vs. Broncos matchup this Sunday. Orlovsky finally had enough, saying (seemingly in a joking manor) to “have some self-respect” and put the jersey away.
The line sent the rest of the Get Up set into hysterics, but Greenberg doubled down, joking that Orlovsky should “show some respect” and that all comments for the rest of the show could be addressed to the jersey.

Sometimes Greenberg’s Jets fandom can go a bit too far, but this moment was a hilarious one. If nothing else, Greenberg is authentically himself, and has no problem laughing about it when others call him out. That said, some fans found the segment to be over-the-top, especially since there’s plenty else going on in the sports world.
This is the reason I stopped listening to Mike and Mike when it was on and why I have never gotten in to Get Up... it's basically just Greenberg talking about the Jets ALL. THE. TIME.

It's not even good tv/radio. https://t.co/KE2xOjtCMl
Why would anyone want to watch playoff baseball highlights when you get this instead? https://t.co/tI5otJ76B7

Remember that time Clint Eastwood talked to an empty chair? Same vibes. https://t.co/HK2AtxpnMA
