Sportscaster responds perfectly to being ditched during viral interview
There are plenty of savage insults, but perhaps the most savage of all is simply walking away mid-conversation.
Sportscaster Kelly Cates got accidentally dissed in that exact way by her Sky Sports colleagues Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher during a broadcast in early April. And now she's responded by recreating the viral moment where she got snubbed.
The original video showed Cates asking a question about Liverpool's upcoming game. Then Neville and Carragher respond by immediately turning around and walking away while answering her. An odd directing choice.

But that didn't mean she was gonna let them get away without a little light-hearted revenge. In their most recent interview on Tuesday, the tables were finally turned while previewing the Manchester Derby.

When Neville asks when the derby will be, Cates smiles and simply walks away, responding "the Manchester derby, Wednesday 7pm on Sky Sports Premier League. Don't you dare turn your back."
The internet applause was immediate. Everyone loves some classy pettiness, after all.

Oof, I wonder if Neville and Carragher will need some ice for that burn.
