Here is video of Bill O'Reilly last night comparing MSNBC to the "Toledo Mud Hens." O'Reilly was discussing with Juan Williams and Mary Katherine Ham why the Obama Administration seems to want to pick a fight with Fox News. Williams said the White House is concerned how networks like MSNBC will react if they are too friendly with Fox News.
That set Bill O'Reilly off! He said MSNBC has "no audience," and that's like saying "we don't want to make the Toledo Mud Hens mad," when they are a double-A baseball team, so it does not matter what they think of the "New York Yankees." . . . . . (Watch Video)

More like the Steven’s Point Curling team.

I wonder to what team he would compare the 110th Congress? Is there really a team so bad as to not be insulted by being compared to the current Congress?
One problem with the comment. The Toledo Mud Hens are the AAA Baseball team of the Detroit Tigers. Their AA team is in Erie, PA.
He could always compare them to the State of NJ. Has anyone noticed lately, that in old TV shows and movies, they used to use Toledo as a butt of jokes, but lately, I’ve been hearing some of the new programs taking a swing at “New Joisey”. Hey, we have plenty of losing teams here as well.....
