For those who have been questioning the validity of the George Brett video, I submit the following. Now, Nancy, I also thought the same thing that you did. I wanted to believe it was real, but I also felt like it could be easily faked. This website points to the believability of the video.
RealClearSports - Blog: "The video has been removed from the Web site at the request of Time Warner/Metro Sports, according to Damon Porter, director of public affairs for Time Warner.
Porter told us that the original footage was shot for Metro Sports as part of some typical spring-training coverage in which players or coaches are miked up for future programs. Brett serves as a Royals instructor during spring training.
But Porter said the particular footage that found its way to YouTube was never meant to be aired.
“It was never shown by us, and it shouldn’t have been shown anywhere,” he said. “For that, we apologize. We apologize to George Brett and to the Royals.”"
