The chart topping hip hop rapper star who used a network hurricane fundraiser to charge "George Bush doesn't care about black people" was loudly and lustily booed during last night's NFL kickoff show.

The appearance of Kanye West, who was beamed into the Boston stadium via remote from Los Angeles, received a strongly negative response from the crowd.

I missed it because I called ABC and told them I would not watch the game.

Glad to hear that it happened...and in Boston?

NFL football fans are red state types, even in Massachusetts. NFL football is so red state.

Good for them!

"Football involves the two worst components of American society - violence and committee meetings."

- George Will - on PBS' "Ken Burns' Baseball" - circa early 1990s.

What gets me is that he was put on TV after those comments.  If the president was black and I went out and said the prez hates white people, there would be such an outcry about my "hate speak" that I'd have to hire bodyguards.  This racist creep is put on TV a few days later.

I'm sure the boos will be edited out, ala the footage of Hillary being lustily booed at the concert right after 9/11 attended by the firemen and policemen (who all looked hammered!).

I bet he will claim he was booed because of racism.

Pepsi has an ad on TV with West as a spokesman... it was absolutely disgusting. I'm not advocating some silly boycott of Pepsi products (good luck trying it) but they should pull the ad.

Coming out of Ted Kennedy's nesting grounds, I'm totally surprised--happily--but nonetheless, surprised.

I agree ... doesn't really work.  Pepsi should, however, be told we are not appreciative of their ads.

This is almost as good as when the FDNY Firefighters booed Shrillary when she gave a speech at their ball, post 9/11.
