"Sports Blab!"

Porky: W-w-w-welcome to s-s-Sports Blab!
Tweety: We'll give you all the day's sports news in thwee minutes.

Sports Blab is a webtoon duology from Looney Tunes that stars Porky Pig and Tweety Bird. It is a parody of sports newscasting, with Porky and Tweety giving viewers all of the day's sports news in three minutes.


Contains examples of:

  • Anvil on Head: Those who don't succeed in Anvil Catch get this on their head. Even Porky got it by the end of the first cartoon.
  • Call-Back: Taz does Shakespeare again.
  • Hurricane of Puns: The second short is nothing BUT this!
  • Produce Pelting: At the end of the second short, Yosemite Sam leads the toons in rebelling against Porky and Tweety by throwing tomatoes at them.
  • Shout-Out:
  • Sky Surfing: Daffy and Yosemite Sam do skyboarding.
  • That's All, Folks!: Porky was about to say it at the end of the second cartoon, but got cut off due to the Produce Pelting.
  • Visual Pun: There are tons of them in the second cartoon.
    • Porky takes a look at the Diamond. An actual diamond, not a baseball diamond.
    Tweety: Aww, how pweety.
    • Taz does a triple play by acting in three plays. When there's a flag on the play, Taz gets hit by a flagpole (carrying a pirate flag) while doing Shakespeare.
    • Foghorn Leghorn gets clotheslined in the last seconds of a football game. As in he's left hanging from a clothing line.
    • Elmer Fudd does a hat trick by pulling Bugs Bunny out of his hat. When he later gets called for icing, Elmer is in a block of ice that falls onto Yosemite Sam.
    • The B-Ball is a game of basketball but where a bee hive has replaced the basketball.
    • The Sheboygan Bratwursts were given an actual technical foul in Daffy Duck (along with a disclaimer from management that the "writer" behind the "joke" didn't work for them anymore).
    • The Badmitten champ is Pepe Le Pew, who ironically is disgusted by the smell of the bad mitten.
    • Seabiscuit is a swimming horse.
    • Last but not least, there is a Drag Racing final which has Sylvester, Taz, Daffy and Yosemite Sam in drag outfits at a starting line. Instead, Sam leads the other toons to rebel against Porky and Tweety because he believed the pair were making all of the news up.

Porky and Tweety list off sports which are visual puns of the sports.
