Why would Brokaw go anywhere in the state that had nairy a county vote blue?
People are there for football, Mr. Brokaw. Not to honor you or anything else.
He went home and cried because it hurt his wittle feewings...
No, I think it is more likely that the red-blooded Americans in Oklahoma realize Tom Brokow is an obsolete icon of an anti-American mainstream media whose death is long overdue.
I don't think these guys really have a clue as to how much they are despised.
The same happen to Kobe Bryant at the AMA tonight. Kobe looked stunned at first and then smiled.
Forgive my ignorance, but what did Brokaw do wrong? As far as I know, he reads the news and honors WW II veterans.
It's sad to see Nebraskans behave like such douchebags.
I'm a Sooner fan and I thought it was pathetic. Dan Rather I can understand because of the memo crap, but don't boo someone just because they are A.) a liberal or B.) a Nebraska grad. It's not like Brokaw is *as* blatantly biased as Rather is, or Olbermann is. That makes our state (and university) look like crap. I wouldn't boo Bill Clinton or John Kerry.
Al Franken or Michael Moore though...

Here is the reason Browkaw was there in post #75 by PhiKapMom from that same thread.
His son-in-law is an OU alum and huge Sooner fan -- only good thing he said in speech along with Beat Texas and the fact that he comes from the same state as Josh Heupel -- Brokaw is not Josh! Josh is really nice, conservative, and supports the President!
Did they boo because it was Brokaw and not Brit Hume?
Discerning fans.
I was born in that fair state. They don't take kindly to leftists down there.
PA ANNOUNCER: Ladeeeees and Gentlemennnnnn...Tom Browkaw!!!
BLUE STATE CROWD:BOOOOOOOOO!!!!
TOM BROKAW: Are they saying "Boooooo?"
KOLLEGE PREZIDINT: "Uh, no... They were saying "NEWS!!!"
BLUE STATE CROWD: "No we weren't!!! We were saying "BOOOOOOOO!!!"
HANS MOLEMAN: I was saying "news."
Brokaw's son-in-law is an OU Grad and I believe both his son-in-law and Brokaw's daughter are doctors here in the local area.
I was at the game too -- it was hilarious -- made the Norman Transcript this morning too!

They ought to love Dan Rather.
