Another Side of NBC’s David Gregory: He Screams ‘Unleash the Fury!’
David Gregory is best-known as the calm, if liberal, host of NBC’s Meet the Press on Sunday mornings.
But he’s also a fan of the Washington Capitals hockey team and as a local celebrity, along with Pat Sajak, he volunteered to help cheer on the team with its “Unleash the Fury!” in-game presentation centered around actor Tom Green reprising the line from the same scene he played in the movie Road Trip.
Here, so you can see a different side of Gregory this Sunday morning, is a three-second video clip of Gregory screaming “Unleash the Fury!”
A Comcast SportsNet cable channel story about the making of the in-game video.
Some background, from the Washington Post’s Dan Steinberg, on how the phrase came to be used by the Capitals.

Most of David's coworkers at the 30 Rock headquarters of NBC are very familiar with him screaming out " Unleash The Fury ", only it's usually reverberating from the corner stall in the executive floor mensroom, just after lunch, whenever it's Mexican Monday in the employee cafeteria.......flush.
Liberals ... we can't live with them, they couldn't survive without us ...

I wonder if Gregory snaps on the "violence" in the games?

travels. He travels almost as much as he golfs. I'd bet that he and Michelle will have to go on vacation when they get back from South America. The poor things must be exhausted already.
