Olbermann takes field with NBC's "Football Night"

http://www.reuters.com/article/televisionNews/idUSN1633623120070416

This was, in many respects, the only way to involve Olbermann in the football telecasts. Because of the demands of "Countdown" -- now produced in Secaucus, N.J., but soon to be produced at NBC's Rockefeller Center headquarters after the MSNBC move across the Hudson River -- Olbermann couldn't travel with the game every week.

Olbermann said the new gig won't affect either "Countdown" or "Dan Patrick," though he said he might take a Friday off during football season to get a two-day weekend.

So, there you have it. He may take a Friday or two off here and there and miss the news dump. But otherwise, he'll be with us.

1. Olbermann is a natural, at least he won't make stupid

racial comments about QB's like limpballs did while at ESPN.(Oh BTW did limpballs discover that Peyton Manning is still white?)

2. I'm not sure Rush yet knows that Sherrod Brown is white.

Not that Sherrod plays football, but... :shrug:

[lies and propaganda]

3. SWEET!!!!
