Al Michaels dissing Kerry 2 weeks in a row on MNF
My letter to ABC sports. Returned as undeliverable!?!?
My hope is that there are others out there who feel partisan political commentary on MNF is undesired and unacceptable. Please write and let them know how you feel. FYI michaels said in response to Maddens statement about a ref call as being flip flop that "they were in the right state for it" at the Foxboro Mass patriots colts game

"For two weeks in a row Al Michaels has made partisan political commentary disparaging the candidate representing the majority of American opinion. I do not watch MNF to hear BS political commentary from elitist jerks. I am sure the majority of your viewers feel the same way. An apology from Mr. Michaels is in order and future restraint is a must. I will conduct an online campaign to boycott your broadcast if I do not hear an apology this Monday!"

1. They won't do anything
The media in general is worthless

I hope CBS at least will allow us to give our point of view

3. The Colts turned the ball over at the goal line

for like the second time in the game and John Madden said that this game was taking a lot of flip-flops. Then Michaels said something like "We're in the right state for that."
