11. Keith has owed me that Special Comment since last week

and it was worth waiting for.

[RevCheesehead]

Tonight is one of those nights. :(

We're good, thanks. Today was lounge around the house day, and they all took turns snuggling with me. :)

Thanks, sweetie, dahling. :hug:

[marlakay]

15. Hello everyone haven't been by in awhile

Obama is doing good on a bunch of stuff but on this Keith is right on and I am sooo glad someone had the nerve to say something about this!

[RevCheesehead]

18. Hi marlakay!

Glad you came by tonight. :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

19. Hi, marlakay!

Yep. I guess the good news is they haven't ruled out prosecutions totally. I'm still hoping John Yoo goes to jail.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

28. Hi marlakay!

:hi: And you are right on!

[GigiMommy]

33. Hi Marlakay!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

[marlakay]

21. I still read this site but only for a few min

and mostly I am on spark people. Have you heard of it?

[Patsy Stone]

23. How do you get them to "Howard Johnson is wrong"?

:rofl:

[bleever]

30. I don't get it.

Little help?

[Patsy Stone]

36. It's a play on a quote from Blazing Saddles.

"Howard Johnson is right about Gabby Johnson being right."

Howard Johnson:

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

24. Hi guys...

:hi: Keith, as usual, hit that out of the park. I'm so disgusted right now I just told Mr. Wonderful F--- the United States of America. This still isn't the country that I grew up in and I'm sorry to say never will be ever again. I never thought in a thousand years that the US would condone torture. What hypocrites we are.

I really think that I'm gonna take a break from DU and all the other sites I visit on a daily basis. What's the point, when the President of the US says sorry we made a mistake and we're not gonna punish those responsible.

I don't care about the memos that were authored by those assholes in Bush's Justice Department. This is a moral and ethical question that has to be addressed whether Obama has the guts for it or not.

[GigiMommy]

40. Hi Mo!!!

:hi: You're right. Gotta catch his Special Comment at 10.

[Patsy Stone]

25. Janeane rocks so hard!

:bounce:

[GigiMommy]

27. OK, I stepped away (Relatives) and now I'm back.

Have to watch the 10 o'clock show. How was his Special Comment?

(My Sis-In-Law lost her job.)

[Berry Cool]

34. Hi GGM and Cassie!

:hi: DO NOT MISS the 10 o'clock show. It was a Comment that sadly had to be made. It was time for Keith to get on Obama's case, and that he did, with bells on. Excellent job.

I only hope Obama, unlike Bush, pays attention.

[Berry Cool]

35. I'm sorry about your SIL's job.

Always so sad to hear about anyone. :-(

[GigiMommy]

37. Thanks Berry.

It sucks. You feel helpless and don't know what to do but the bills don't stop coming so you gotta find SOMETHING.

[Berry Cool]

44. Yep. Been there, done that, couldn't afford the T-shirt because it cost too much.

And none of us ever knows when it's coming again, either. Which really sucks.

[Patsy Stone]

41. Hey, Dick Ebersol?

:boring:

[RevCheesehead]

42. I will miss John Madden.

BOOM! Almost as much as I miss Brett. :cry:

[bleever]

47. Madden:

:loveya:

More than Jack Brickhouse, even.

[GigiMommy]

43. OH great! TWO conservatives in the booth on Sunday night.

UGH!

[Berry Cool]

45. Oh well, as long as they keep their politics to themselves, I'm OK with it.

:rofl:

Keith could have started out the show tonight saying "John Madden retires, and breaking news--his replacement is a current member of the Sunday Night Football team born January 27, 1959."

And of course all of us would have sighed and said "So Cris Collinsworth gets the gig."

[GigiMommy]

46. That's a good one...

:rofl:

[bleever]

48. Is it really Chris's gig to replace Madden?

I don't get it.

That makes no sense.

[RevCheesehead]

49. Costas would be much, much better.

Maybe he's got a limited contract. At least it ain't Troy Aiken. :puke: (yeah, I know he's with FOX, but still...)

[Berry Cool]

50. I don't know. They seem to like to keep Costas in the studio.

Keith they HAVE to keep in the studio, in part because he has I think only one piece of big-time booth experience under his belt (Cornell radio doesn't count) and in part because he wouldn't want to fly around that much, and Madden is probably getting the Madden Mobile as a retirement gift. (That's assuming he doesn't own it to begin with.)

I look at it like this: if they don't feel the need to replace Cris in the studio, they will be down one of the many cooks in the kitchen and each one will probably get a bit more time to talk.

I do like seeing Dan and Keith together again, although I miss "Olber-Time" and what little we got of "Worst Person in the NFL."
