Despite massive low ratings and numerous scandals going on at ESPN, they somehow conclude that they need to have Keith Olberman back? Why? The guy is an unhinged lunatic who is well known for his nutbar level hate, filled, profanity filled tweets towards the President. This at the same time the Parent company cancels Roseannes show for a mildly offensive tweet. Double standard?

ESPN Management: "You know the first rule about holes. When you're in one, keep digging until you get to the center of the Earth. Then bring in a front-end loader and fill the hole up again."

It’s their own fault. Outside of live sporting events, Espn has become totally irrelevant

Olbermann is great at what he does, and that is sports. However, when he had a daily events show on MSNBC it was absolutely fantastic. He would just excoriate Republicans nightly. It was also funny, with the "Worst Person In The World" segment.

I can still hear the intro to the show in my ears….."Which of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow"……..

It was a great show, and this is a great hire by ABC/ESPN. Dumping a racist and hiring Olbermann caused a huge upward swing in I.Q. points.

Olbermann is a very talented host and does a good show. That is why conservatives hate him so much, he is good at what he does. If he was on Fox doing a conservative show, the righties would love him.

And there we have it, folks.

Proof positive that Olbermann had at least one viewer for his show on MessNBC.

Or at least, one person who claims to have been a viewer.

No accounting for sheer stupidity.
