:nopity: Cry me a river, mofos!

Incredible.
I guess I will be watching a lot less football this fall.

What Rush should do this fall is stop talking about it. I wouldn't be surprised if you saw a notable downtick in viewers.

Mmm...okay. I'd just as soon he stop pretending to be a serious newsman and go back to sports. He was watchable as a sports guy.

Geez! I can barely stomach Costas and now they’re going to add Olberman? NBC must want to destroy the only show it has worth watching.

Drat. I’ll have to watch Sunday football with the sound muted.
Take heart. It's just the studio crew.

But sportscasting has definitely taken a turn for the worse lately.

Olbermann must have been recruited to make sure their ratings don't expand.

Can there be anything worse than Costas, Collingsworth, Olbermann and Bettis?

Poor Tiki. He must be the token, "Well, if he's there, it's not a total loss."

Oh...sure, he is getting better ratings that Chris Matthews...and is nastier (if that is possible)..

SOOOOOo NBC rewards him with this gig.

Sorry, NBC...but I am OUT!

“I’ll have to watch Sunday football with the sound muted.”

Turn on the radio while you watch.

Yet another reason to not watch the NBC Sunday fool’s ball show (as if I needed another reason).

2. You are brave to even go there. But ha ha, I hadn't heard this news about our Keith. Good for him.
I just hope they're not trying to take him off of Countdown or cancel the show.

4. Now this guy's sig line shows what a good person he is...
Kennedys - Can't drive, can't fly, can't ski, can't skipper a boat - But they know what's best



So, let's make fun of people's deaths. What a wonderful addition to the human race this joker is.

5. Considering how Olbermann's viewership is increasing
This is a good move by NBC.

And it's amusing how they're complaining about Olbermann, but no one (not even those of us on DU) said a word about NBC hiring rightwinger Tiki Barber for Sunday Night Football.

If the freepers don't have something to complain about, they'd be miserable.

6. Ack! Tiki's a winger?!
Are you sure? I'll have to tell Mom, who lives nearby him and has on occasion spotted him at the supermarket.

Ouch! He's such a good broadcaster, too. One of the few I had any respect for... :puke:

I've heard him describe himself as very moderate.

11. Listen to him as a co-host on Faux News
And then try to describe him as a moderate.

He's a rightwinger all the way.

Like your hero Rush can? :rofl: The front door to Rush's house revolves. One look at him naked and it's "man the harpoons, the great white whale has surfaced"! :rofl: Man, are these people desperate or what? :silly:

And I still can't get over what a crappy site that is. :puke: They've never changed the format, still using their state of the art 1998 format. Don't any of those numbnuts ever wonder what RimJob does with all their money? :shrug: He's never put a dime into that crappy web-site, that's for sure. :puke:

14. Collinsworth is a republic too
He's still one of my favorite announcers but he gives all his money to the republics. I won't be watching it anyway, there is way too much fluff on all of these pre-game shows. I often wonder how these people can do these shows with a straight face.
