Keith Olbermann dropped by 'Sunday Night Football' (no, not b/c he's far left)

Bombastic Olbermann is being yanked off NBC's "SNF".......NBC complained it was distracting him from his cable news network show. Olbermann missed several editions of MSNBC's, "Countdown." NBC officials assured reporters that Olbermann's florid, left-of-center politics and tendency to rant against Republicans is not the reason he is being yanked. The Sunday night game is NBC's highest-rated program, and losing his weekly spot will mark the end of the promotion his cable show has been getting the past three years.

What a shame.
He was actually good at carnival barking through football bloopers.
It seemed like a good outlet for his OCD and speed demon Tourette's.
The "roughing the Brady" penalties won't be quite the same without Keith's neurons sputtering and overdriving on Dexedrine cocktails.

"Keith, we hardly knew ye. Farewell."

Another major lie from NBC. Olbermann’s staff has been quitting over the last month including his producer and some of his supporters higher up in PMSLSD are on their way out now that Comcast is in charge. This guy will be ranting exclusively on twitter in his pajamas by next year.

“NBC officials assured reporters that Olbermann’s florid, left-of-center politics and tendency to rant against Republicans is not the reason he is being yanked”

We didn't fire him because he's a leftist loonie, we fired him because he SUCKS.
