In fact, I didn't watch NBC local news b/c I knew I'd have to listen to him when the sports came on. However, NBC does have some good female sports personalities that have been run out (rumored to be b/c of Michael) that maybe can do the type of work they want.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16318056886420896448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5216647.post-1164081925158413462006-11-20T23:05:00.000-05:002006-11-20T23:05:00.000-05:00I'm glad to see him go as well...

I'm not implying that that's a bad thing, just an interesting element of the man that is Michael.<BR/><BR/>My big thing w/ GM was his utter lack of knowledge of hockey and the Capitals in particular. It's like he never even made an effort. Granted, nobody in DC cares about the Craps, but jeez, if you're gonna cover rodeos and dog shows, you could at least learn the names of the players on one of your hometown professional sports teams.<BR/><BR/>Long live Jim Vance.Duke Frankencowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17174966368335801422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5216647.post-1163780203810332692006-11-17T11:16:00.001-05:002006-11-17T11:16:00.001-05:00leave the sports commentary to deadspin, dude.leave the sports commentary to deadspin, dude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5216647.post-1163780169172675132006-11-17T11:16:00.000-05:002006-11-17T11:16:00.000-05:00I can't stand George Michael either.
