Update from the show. I just received an email response:

Thank you for your e-mail. The thing that makes our country great is free thought, choice, the right to speak and the right NOT to listen. We knew when we booked Michael Moore that he would be a lighting rod of controversy. Does this mean the show is more left of center? Certainly not. Many of the people who work behind AND in front of the camera on our show proudly support the Republican Party and President George Bush. Does this mean we are apologists for Michael Moore? Again, absolutely not, but it just so happened that 3 of our guys on set were fans of Mr. Moore, even before he made "Fahrenheit 9/11."

We wished we had more time to talk to Mr. Moore. We wish we could have asked him what he is doing with the profits of his movie (is he donating to the 9/11 fund or pocketing the money?), why he doesn't blame the previous administration at all for the events leading up to one of the worst days in American history ... we had more to ask, but simply put - we ran out of time.

Again, thank you for your thoughts and e-mail. I hope you understand and remain a loyal viewer.

Regards,
The Best Damn Sports Show Period


Just makes me more mad. They spent the entire interview kissing this guy's butt and bending over for him that I guess they ran out of time to ask a serious question.

If it is such a good "sports" show, why didn't they discuss sports?

Why don't they get Johnny Ramone of the band the Ramones? He is a conservative Republican AND he loves baseball.

Just because the people on the set like Noam Chomsky-lite doesn't mean that it is good television.
