The show lampooned the world of sports using web videos and field segments.

[2] Comedian and former Saturday Night Live "Weekend Update" anchor Norm Macdonald hosted the show.

[10][11] Episodes of the Sports Show feature Macdonald in a role reminiscent of his time as Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update news anchor, but now covering topical and controversial sports-related stories with his signature smirk and absurdist dry spin, according to Craig Sanger of the Washington Times.

The sketch also featured Macdonald, who hired a makeup artist to disguise him as Blake Griffin so he could go undercover in the NBA.

Jordan can't understand why his teammate is playing so poorly (i.e. airballs, awkward moments and even a sky-hook), until the real Blake Griffin enters the practice court and the undercover-Griffin runs away when confronted.
