Olbermann Mocks Palin During NFL Football Games

By Rob on October 6, 2008 at 08:50 am

Is that really want football fans want? Some liberal wise ass getting cute during the game?

Heck, is that what the NFL wants? You’d think that a group like the NFL would want coverage its games to remain somewhat non-partisan, no?

Discussion question: How much of Olbermann’s rage stems from his history as a sports journalist and his ardent desire to be taken seriously as a political commentator? There’s nothing wrong with being a sports journalist, and some have risen the genre to an art form (Costas, Cosell, etc.), but I think a lot of journalists who cover sports see themselves as inferior to their “real news” counterparts and thus walk around with a big chip on their shoulder because of it.

Olbermann being the poster boy for this disorder.

Keith Overbite is a hateful person so he really doesn’t matter all that much. No one watched his count down to no ratings.

OK, let me get this straight, I can watch Olbermaniac report Sports or Sarah.

UMMMM

OK, I don’t get it.

Why would anyone want to watch the Olberdum when there are more attractive options.

Heck that lady who does the slim fast or some weight commercials is better than him.

Celebrities like Olbermann need the stage because they believe in their minds that we worship them and all that they do for us.

His ego is larger than life.

Olbermann is a rather simple person, dealing with complex issues.
The more complex the issue, the simpler he wants to make it.

I do tune in on Sunday night...mute out the TV..until the game is in focus...tune out at half-time, excluding the mumbling of of Olbermann and Chris Collinsworth, who could not find his ass with both hands if he had just crapped all over himself.

That is the worst pre-game and half-time show to hit the networks since Byrant Gumblerer
