Not sure if you guys heard about this, but MSNBC did a live phone interview with who they thought was Team USA goaltender Ryan Miller. Turned out to be a prank, and MSNBC had to issue an apology and then interviewed the real Ryan Miller, who actually thought it was pretty funny.
Here is the video of the prank call, and the apology. You may see an advertisement in the player, that will disappear in a few seconds then the video will be available:

Really, really disgraceful. How could MSNBC let this happen? And think about it, how many people do you think watched that interview, but didn’t watch Hardball with Chris Matthews? There are people who think that is the actual Ryan Miller and that he predicted Gold and an easy win.
The only way this could be fixed, is during the broadcast of the USA/Canada game. There will be many, many viewers. And this incident needs to be clarified live.
