re: #14 Olsonist

I really hate FOX. Really. But when I’m at the gym and NFL on FOX is on I’m kind of surprised and waiting for the veiled political slant. It finally dawned on me that the NFL would terminate their contract in a heartbeat if FOX politicized football. MNF gets a pass with Olberman and Miller but it’s probably written into the FOX contract.
That’s my guess.

FWIW Olbermann was a host of SportsCenter on ESPN for five years before moving to MSNBC and I think he’s done a good job of keeping his politics out of his sports commentary. If he didn’t, he should be kicked off the broadcast without delay. If the NFL becomes part of the partisan game then I’m gonna’ get seriously pissed!
