What's the best way to impress a school and get some new graduates to like you at commencement? Insult a hated SEC West rival. That's what legendary NBC news anchor and author, Tom Brokaw, did on Saturday. He took a direct shot at Alabama and wasn't sorry about it one bit.
Tom Brokaw at #OleMiss commencement: "If I was speaking at Alabama's commencement, I'd have to use smaller words and shorter sentences."

The seven-time Emmy award winner and Television Hall of Famer clearly knows how to win over an audience and it looks like he did that for sure. I suppose Alabama won't book him for events any time soon because that might get a little awkward and the sentences might be a little short too.
