"..but excusing President Donald Trump’s history of alleged sexual assault, it was especially untimely."

What history?

I think it’s funny.

There are levels of stupid.
Competing for the “unbelievably stupid” award are SJWs, “studies” faculty, and sportscasters.
It is a close contest.
Stay tuned.

I recall when Al did the Monday Night baseball games on ABC back in the mid to late 1980s, my Dad and I were watching a game and Al began talking (for some reason I certainly do not recall) about a game involving the elder Bobby Bonds (RIP) some time earlier in the 1970s.

In any event, Al and the other commentator continued to prattle on about this silly game until Al made a remark “out on a close play by Bobby Grich” and that had my Dad shaking his head and rolling his eyes as to how stupid and irrelevant Michaels could be in the way he went on about things like that.

Now, did Al apologize because it was an inappropriate joke or because it wasn’t funny?

Would he be forced to apologize if the comment had been about Trump?

I think we know the answer.

I quit watching the NFL. Did anyone mention Bret Favre?

Al Michaels’ career has been riding for more than 35 years on a fortunate happenstance, when he got to call the 1980 USA-USSR Olympic hockey game.

Otherwise, he’d be some hack doing the Chargers or Browns play-by-play on CBS-BS, sharing the microphone with Bonzo or some former player who took a few too many hard hits during his time in the No Fans Left group.

I like Al Michaels. He’s a good broadcaster.

Al makes off the cuff remarks all the time. During a game in Washington DC during Clintons term the cameras were panning the White House when Chris noted the curtains were pulled shut. Al’s remark? “What else is new”

And yet NBC had no problem making Herman Cain jokes on Saturday Night Live when he dropped out of the race in 2012 over sex allegations.
