P.D.S. on NBC’s Sunday Night Football

Photoshop: David Lunde
There is no refuge from Palin Derangement Syndrome. It’s in your storage unit. On grocery stands. And it was apparently on Sunday Night football earlier today. I didn’t watch it, but several readers did. Reader Mike e-mailed:
Olbermann, who I’m pretty sure NBC hired as a football analyst for their NFL show and not a left wing hack, had to rip off a Palin joke during his recap of the Buffalo/Arizona game. Noting a hard sack on Trent Edwards and how he had to be carried off the field, Olbermann said he would return, but “….he did say that he could see Russia from there.” Happened just before 8pm EST. He is such a loser!
Reader mp also saw it:
Just after 8pm tonight during the NBC Sunday NIght Football games summary, Keith Olbermann said that after suffering a concussion, Buffalo Bills QB Trent Edwards said that he could see Russia from here — a slap at Republican VP Candidate Sarah Palin. Enough is enough . I do not watch NBC Sunday Night Football for political attacks. Olbermann must go!
Switch off NBC. It’s Nothing But Crap.

Here is what I actually sent to them:
If he is still there this coming Sunday night I will have to mute the TV when I see him, because the Patriots are on!
OK that address got bounced back. I think this one will work:
nbcsportshelp@nbcuni.com
I left the following message on the Contact site for NBC.
Hopefully others will take similar action. Lost market share hurts them and will also cause the NFL to review their contract as they look to make money from NBC.
AFBEN, that was my point. The only democrat supporting men that I know who watch football are minorities or on disability and they usually don’t know much about politics, they certainly could not tell you who their senators are let alone representatives. Olbermann is the typical liberal commentator, he does not know who is audience is. I don’t like having venues where I expect to get away from election issues to have it thrown at me. Olbermann is also the typical liberal, no class no professionalism, he is just like the people commentating here saying, what is the problem? It was a joke, you republicans are whiners. When they know they have cornered the market on “political satire” anywhere at anytime by 90% of the media being of their persuasion.
Though I am a Steelers fan living in Ohio, there is a local radio station that is part of the Steelers radio network. Even though I have to put up with a 2-3 second delay–the audio “leads” the video–I don’t have to listen to Olberdork (not that the rest of the on-air folks are any better to listen to).
I think we should also send letters to their sponsors and decline to purchase any product they advertise on that show till he is gone.
Besides the political overtones of Barak Olberman…..NBC’s football analysis is terrible. Considered worst in the business by sports fans.
ssnark, good point–it’s not just the politics that made it a horrible comment, but the sheer insensitivity toward Edwards’ injury. No one should be joking on air about any head or neck injury.
Especially when JP Losman is the backup.
Did anyone else make the point about Limbaugh losing his gig at ESPN when he made a comment that was perceived as racist in Oct. 2003?
Hello, fairness doctrine? Liberals? Democrats? Anybody? Not you again, Double Standards! Anybody but you!!
I emailed nbcsportshelp, for all the good it’ll do.
I wrote them LAST year saying that the only sport I watch is football, but I refused to watch NBC football as long as Ol(biteme)man was on their show. I refuse to watch anything that man (?) is on.
