Default Fox Football Friday

Anyone ever watch this show ??
How on earth do the two presenters actually get away with being that bad - absolutely shocking stuff.
Lucky b*st*rds - how is it that about 50% of sports presenters know nothing about sport when there are litterally truckloads of knowledgable people out there who would cyt their arms off for a job like that

I can never work it out either. Such dim wits. But I've concluded why they get away with it. Because noone watches this shite. Or if they, do they have TIVO and skip the WHOLE bloody show

I'm off to get pissed at my neighbors - the REAL enjoyable part of this WORLD INTERNATIONAL SPORTS DAY I can't wait for the ads.

OH, one other point. They are playing the game in a centrally heated stadium with all the mod cons. Bless em.

So is everyone whipping themselves into an apathy for the game yet

I saw the lovely Condi doing a pre game interview, what a waste of space that was.

I'm eagerly waiting for the annually asserted but totally absurd statement that the superbowl has a TV audience of "more than a billion".
Yeah, right.

That's just for the advertisers benefit, so they can justify charging them 3 gazzillion dollars for 30 seconds airtime

It's the JJ booby effect, it says something about the Rolling Stones, that they've been booked (wild men of rock, my arse)

Nearly as much as those singing the Star Spangled Banner. That Aaron Neville absolutely sucks and always has done.

I've nearly got into fist fights over my assumption that that statement is a load of bollocks

You should do. The tune itself is a BRITISH tune. Actually a London drinking song called "Ode to Anacreon" as I recall. Just something else the yanks nicked.
