Keith Olbermann is gigantic!
Edited on Tue Nov-11-08 01:39 AM by Sugarcoated
Did you see him on the view? He looks like a different breed of human next to the View ladies! Or are they all super petite?

4. I'd love to see him go toe to toe with BillOh
I bet he'd kick his ass right proper.

11. Billo the Clown is tall, too
but the one time Keith and Billo were together in a social setting--they were both attending a fundraiser--Billo ducked and dodged KO all night long. Wouldn't go near him.

Coward.

14. He said he thought Billo wouldn't confront him that night because he is tall
He said Billo is a bully and if he had been shorter than Billo then Billo may have tried to intimidate him.

Howard Stern says the same thing. Did you know that Howard and Keith were friends? They may still be friends.

2. I believe it is a combination of both.... They should have given him a lower chair.

3. Yeah, I think he's a pretty big guy
He wasn't dwarfed by recent guest John Cleese, who's 6'5". :)

5. Remember when the first time he went on Letterman?
David told him, "You are really huge!"

And Keith answered him, "Thank you... I think!"

I'm sure there is footage of that.

7. I noticed he was slouching in his seat
maybe that's why.

8. Its so wierd
I always thought he was a little guy. I remember thinking that Rachel towered over him, once sometime back, and that he must be really small.

10. I think Rachel is pretty small. Maybe five foot two or so.
Not sure but I'm guessing.

12. Rachel's pretty tall, actually.
per http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/09/10/MNJ012RR6S.DTL

Tall - 5 foot 11 - and competitive, Maddow was a three-sport athlete (volleyball, basketball and swimming) at Castro Valley High School, the sort of intense player who was frequently injured diving for balls. The Maddows gave away six pairs of crutches after Rachel left for Stanford.

9. He's 6' 4" but
he sure looked so big and tall next to the ladies on the View. Are they all on the small side?

15. That is why he does not looks so huge next to Rachel....
...I did not realize that she was that tall, 5'11". So...they are proportioned to each other. I am 5'10-1/2" tall and my late husband was 6'3-1/2". So that is about the same as KO and Rachel. No wonder no one notices how tall he is because most ~~ like me until now ~~ did not realize that Rachel is a tall person, too.

:hi:

13. No, not really. I'm pissed at Keith because he doesn't vote.
So he does his special comments but doesn't actually exercise his civic duty.

I call bullshit.

Anybody notice if Tommy Lee has big hands or feet?
