First read this on ESPN and out of curiosity scrolled down to read the comments. Believe me racism is alive and well in America and it isn’t coming from Hank Williams Jr. Hate is thriving among the dumbed down idiots that are still reliving the civil war and want whitey to get out of America, ad nauseum...barf, barf and more barf.
I won’t watch Monday night football EVER again and it is more than just about Hank Williams Jr.

It won’t matter. As of last Monday, I’m done with MNF.
“Barry Sanders to Perform Monday Night Football in Place of Hank Williams Jr”
In case he suddenly turns white, on the plus side he’s faster and far more elusive than Hank Williams, and no doubt can outrun bad press. Certainly a better choice than Emmit Smith.
NO HANK, NO WATCH! hubby will, but I can read, I’m behind 4-5 books.
I agree with Hank his 1st A rights were violated.
I hope he runs for Corker’s seat in ‘12. Corker is a fence straddler.
this is soooo exciting - once my night out (from Fox) has been ruined.
At least Sanders can sing better than Hank Jr.
ESPN successfully drags Sanders into the dirt with them. I thought Sanders was smarter than that.
Looks like I’ll have more time to watch hockey. Thank you ESPN for helping me decide what to watch on Monday nights.
There shouldn’t have to be a choice...Hank didn’t say anything wrong. If the shoe was on the other foot and P Diddy made a comment on the view..would he be out the door?
It’s Sanders because the game is in Detroit.
I have a better idea, why not just go back to the classic MNF theme.
“I agree with Hank his 1st A rights were violated.”
Hank’s First Amendment Rights have not been violated as the First Amendment does not guarantee contract employment.
your opinion
I cannot stand the announcers they have for MNF, so I rarely watch.
So he called Obama an evil white dude. At least he was half right.
Uhhh no, you can say whatever you want, you just don't have the right to keep your job if you say it.
aha ha ha ha ..thanks for making me literally laugh out loud
Hank owns the rights to the lyrics. So I suspect it will be a brand new song.
“If the shoe was on the other foot and P Diddy made a comment on the view..would he be out the door?”
Oh, surely. Look at who they’ve fired for controversy in the past: for instance, the ultra-liberal Rush Limbaugh. Note how they employed, and for all I know continue to employ, the perfectly stable reactionary right-wing Bible-thumping Keith Olbermann./s
