Comedy Central has wrapped production on the pilot for what is described as sports version of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, tentatively titled Sports Central. Except in this case, it would seem that smart-mouthed "reporters" could have their butts whooped by not-amused NFL players waiting in the studio's parking lot....
