OT Mr. Olbermann's Good Night

[kkkkandp]

Keith is way too smart and talented to be unemployed for long unless that is his choice. I enjoy reading his MLB blog and maybe this intersession will allow him to post to that more frequently. I wouldn't mind seeing a baseball related book either.

I would love for Mr. Olbermann to be envolved with the chat board or release a card related book. Not sure how he consistently violated compny rules, he admitted then one transgression, contributions to several Democratic candidtes, that he was suspended for he did not even know it violated the rules. I may have missed something else. please enlighten me. Or is this a case of I hate his politics so I'll over exaggerate his mistakes, or as I call it politics in America.

Wasn't it something about Keith having an affair with Sarah Palin?

Keep an eye out for an announcement about Keith being on Dancing with the Stars.

Keith Olberman is probably the most polarizing person in American politics today and is detested by those on the right. Last time I checked, America rejected his extreme left wing agenda.

I don't think posts that at all allude to his being fired should be allowed on here unless it pertains strictly to card collecting. In fact this should not be allowed in the watercooler section either under the rules that exist.

I really miss Keith and Dan Patrick on SportsCenter, that was a great team.

From my stance Keith is another collector. IF you want to discuss the reasons he got let go, or left his job, and it doesn't get too political, then I am ok with it. What we won't have is an all out political discussion. That will get us no where and will get this thread locked. Keith has always been nice to me, in emails and dealings, so that is the way I will be to him. I can't say I know him too well but I tend to try to treat people that way they treat me. If this discussion gets political then expect it to end rather quickly. I am sure he will land on his feet somewhere when he wants to. regards

There are very polarizing people on both sides of the debate. Let's not single out Keith. He's made tremendous contributions to our hobby and has written many fine articles about vintage card sets. I've known Keith since the early 1980's and he and I have had some great discussions about cards. I still have correspondence from him from about 1983-84 and he was very passionate even then. As Leon said, let's keep this positive.

Jim and I are polarizing... maybe just Leon and Barry should post here, back and forth, to one another. Rush used to announce ball games, reckon he collects, too? He's a tad bit polarizing.
