Obama to make announcement on Monday Night Football?
Edited on Mon Dec-11-06 08:01 PM by bbinacan
My brother just called me and said he heard Obama would make a major announcement during the game. Has anyone else heard this? What do you suppose he will say?

On edit: Maybe he will just say "Are you ready for some football"?

1. I think it's baloney
Nobody in their right mind would announce on MNF.

8. Why not? I think it's a great idea. Tony and Joe are Dems. Don't know about Mike.
I was VERY surprised to read that all Theismann's political contributions were to Democrats.

Mr Tony is very BLUE. PTI's normally orange sidebar was blue on election day.

16. It sure took me by surprise.
Joe's political contributions weighed heavily Democratic.

No kiddin'!

Maybe he'll predict a Bears win.

I rather have Wesley Clark, Edwards or even Hillary
that's right, even Clinton.

7. I mean in the general election.
I can't imagine why anybody would want Clinton over Obama though.

12. Experience, perhaps?
I like Obama, but I just feel he's too green. Just my opinion, though.

18. Yeah, I keep hearing the "experience" argument for Obama.
Doesn't strike me as a good or valid argument.

17. I'm a Clarkie too.
But I like Feingold also and would vote for Hillary.

19. Of course not! He's, like, popular!
I swear, I think that's the only reason some around here oppose him. He gets hype, therefore he must be bad.

9. That would be inappropriate
all this attention has definitely gone to his head, if he thinks something like that is a good idea :crazy:

14. Why is not a good idea?
Interesting that you make the accusation, but don't tell us why. I think it makes perfect sense.

13. I know what it is...
Edited on Mon Dec-11-06 08:16 PM by joe_sixpack
he's going to announce that Grossman will be pulled in favor of Griese, if he doesn't get his act together and start playing better.
