You can post without registering.

The righties are flipping their wigs that somebody that doesn't hold THEIR beliefs get airtime.

Let them know there are many more of us that like Keith and are glad that NBC is using him in their NFL broadcast.

1. Yeah, I know...
like Limpballs was such a huge success. :eyes:

KO can multi task. He can annoy the righties and be a good sports commentator. Must be hard for them to grasp that.

2. He was a fantastic sportscaster on ESPN...
They fail to recognize that he was on ESPN for years.

3. That's just the same poster, posting over and over again
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 06:53 PM by itsrobert
Notice a lot of the post say "Guest" somewhere in them.

He's a one man wrecking crew. He enjoys responding to himself, but if he can get one of us to play along, he is one well fed troll.

4. Keith is outstanding in sports and his knowledge is top notch
And unlike Rush he will stick to football and sports and the ratings will be killer ....

so the right wing nut balls .... 24% .... can stew in their own juices.

Keith is one of the best sports people in the biz .... fuck em

7. Wow. Sounds like he's touching some nerves.
I think that's a good thing. I won't contact anybody to get rid of him. If anything, I'll email and ask for more Keith.

8. ROFLMAO !!!
One of these rubes says:

I have contacted the advertisers, especially Toyota, letting them know if he continues to be on the show, I will boycott their products. Here is the address for Toyota: http://toyota.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/toyota....k_intercept.php.


What... does this guy buy Toyotas by the bushel? Does he change cars as often as he changes his underwear?

:wtf:

Oh, and his handle: Mr. Reasonable

:rofl::evilgrin::rofl:

9. Do you notice how the RW like to play the "big shot." I can tell you
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 06:39 PM by monmouth
from the Toyota point of view...I am a retired exec secretary, the letter will hit the round file if it even makes it out of the mailroom.....lol. Edit to clarify: I wasn't a secretary at Toyota, didn't sound right, sorry.... My bosses wanted their mail, the important stuff, not crap like that. We used to pitch it before they even saw it..

14. So if we write to complain about
Limbaugh or Beck does the same thing happen? Why waste the time. Same with e-mail, I know what I do with spam.

10. My guess Is that
most of those anti-Keith posts are posted from the same IP address.

15. Well, if we can fiure that out
so can they.

Morans don't cover their tracks well. That's one of the downsides of being a moran.

And he's proably thinking he's scaring the crap out of Toyota. :rofl:

12. I've watched Keith on the football coverage every week
and he says NOTHING on it that could possibly be construed as political in any way, shape or form, any more than Tiki Barber makes it obvious that he used to be on Fox Noise. Neither one of them comments on anything but the football under discussion.

The only possible objection the wingnuts can have to Keith's being there is that they find his mere presence offensive, and they regard any success he has there as unfair because they hate him for his political views.

If they are complaining that he constantly brings political commentary and opinions into his football discussions, they have not a leg to stand on, because he doesn't. Of course, only they were stupid enough to think he would in the first place.

NBC's NFL show is getting good reviews, in part because positive things are being said about the humor Keith brings to the show, and they just can't stand it, because they can already see Keith is likely to be brought back next year. That will make their heads explode.

16. Well one time
Costas said "Countdown" and Keith replied "Countdown? Countdown?" and he does a "worst person of the week segment" or at least did one once about the guy who injured Trent Green and then was yelling at him while he was lying on the turf unconscious (to be fair, it was kind of a dirty block and it was lucky the guy didn't break his neck when he flipped over the way he did.)

17. I'd like to go there and get a laugh out of the spelling, grammar and syntax.




But really, it's just too predictable.



Billy Bob and Cooter are just not
as entertaining as they once were.
