Olbermann has a long and terrific sports history. He was an ESPN anchor for a long time and helped create their feel. In his sports life he is very intelligent, a great scholar of sports history (particularly baseball) and generally a real kick to listen to. He can be wickedly funny. He is well suited (based on his experience) to host a pre-game show. (My apologies if you are already knew this.)
This is a good example, for me, of separating politics and performance (see thread in General Chat.) While I enjoy his sports work I have a hard time watching his MSNBC work.

You've lost me here. I looked up your thread on General Chat and find the clips you chose were perfect to define the singular stupidity that was going on that particular week.
I might have missed something, or seen the wrong thread, but I got the impression you admired Keith as a news reporter.

I think I missed the boat. I saw NFL pre-season in Ken's comment and I thought he meant he was working a football game. I think he would be suited for that job.
I don't remember posting anything about Keith. Ken had a few clips and maybe Dewey posted a clip or two but not me.
I'm sorry I got everything confused.

My mistake, not yours Chris. I go on the General Chat as little as possible because every time I do, I end up cussing and yelling at my computer - like it ties itself up forever!!! And the shame of it is, when the thread first started, I loved it. When I do go on, I'm extremely careful not to click on either the trailer or the music videos, so when I went into the Olberman vs. O'Riley, I could have sworn I saw your name, but it was Ken 123.
Anyway, Keith is so clear and concise, and pronounces his words so distinctly, he would probably be a real treat as a sports announcer.
