I agree with you there. I always wondered if Olberman was going to be at the Republican Debates last year & I was surprised when he was and was the host. I think Scarborough & Matthews would have served much better. I like Joe Scarborough, at least on his show. Don't know much about him but his viewpoints seem pretty reasonable.

Olberman's show, though wayyyy to the left really carried MSNBC as a whole in the last 2 years or so, ever since he really started attacking Bush. MSNBC used to be a second rate news channel, now it's close to CNN & FXNN. His ratings have caught O'Reillys.  Supposedly Chris Matthews is going to run for a PA Senate seat in 2 years. Arlen Spector needs to get out of there. His whole obsession with the NFL & NE Patriots cheating scandal is ridiculous.

Funny Olberman story, remember when he was on ESPN & Sportscenter? Well a while ago a guy I work with was with some younger people last year & they were talking. One of the guys who is younger said "What is Keith Olberman doing on NBC Football. What does he know about sports?!"

I think the Big 3 in the AFC (NE, Indy, SD) are going downhill. I'd bet only 1 makes the playoffs. Probably Indy even though they lost last night. Cinci looks bad too, CLE has a tough schedule ahead & needs to prove alot in the first 3-4 weeks. Pitt looks tough.

In the NFC the biggest shocker was ATL. Surprised both Ryan & Flocco (Balt) started at QB & played pretty well.

While I don't wish injury on anybody, I would like to see someone run up the score on Belicheck. I recall he did it a few times last year, esp against Wash & Joe Gibbs.

I'll never forget Randall Cunningham going down on opening day in 91. The day I was going away to college, we were listening on the radio. Ruined my whole day.

Yeah they said on ESPN a NE player (anonymous) said "Matt Cassell is our QB for the rest of the year.".

Nugdafied that pre-game song did suck. The whole thing was corny.
