Presidential Address could conflict with Packers/Saints

[hoosier]

I can handle this setup. Awkward McCarren and Larrivee works for me.

You lucky bastards who get access to Packers radio. Of all things Wisconsin I miss that more than any of them with the possible exception of a cold Spotted Cow.

Well lets get this thing over to FYI. Its gone astray.

I can't believe people want to watch the Packer game over hearing Obama speak yet again. I can't get enough of the guy. He is hunkalicious:

Now that is Lincolnesque!

Tits. It's about football. Don't be such a butt plumper.

The wife just returned from WI with assorted beers: spotted cow, Sprecher, Capital, and also cheese curds. First heart attack, here I come!

Lincoln Log Cabin Republicans!


P.S. excellent use of Lincolnesque...

[HowardRoark]

Can't he just send out a postcard instead of a speech?

[Tony Oday]

Obama has to be invited to congess he cant just say he is coming.

Still sucks i want to see football not some damn politician not telling the truth again!

So this whole uproar is about the possibility that NBC will only have a half hour of lame-ass pregame instead of a full hour? WTF and who gives a shit.
Everything else here is FYI crap about the pissing contest between Obama and the Bawling Pumpkin.

caveat: I'm not from the US, and don't have to watch this shit.

I think everyone's calmed down now that the speech is scheduled for the hour before - originally that wasn't obvious. So, you're right, it's just the pre-game show that will be preempted, and the only real problem is the millions of dollars NBC will lose in ad revenue.

But seriously, the politicians should get a clue. Yes, they're generally out of touch with, but it doesn't take a rocket surgeon to realize that messing with the NFL's opening night is not going to make them any friends.

No, the uproar was about the possibility that Obama would be speaking to Congress at the time of the kick-off the NFL season and NBC would air him instead.

[Tony Oday]

No its having to listen to the worst president in the last 30 years babble about something he has no idea about and might overlap with Packer football. It is shocking how dumb he is...never thought someone could make GW look smart.

I think I'll put this....right about here

You don't need a comma in there - and that's a female meerkat

Here's a male meerkat doing...well, what male meerkats do...

It still pisses me off that Obama is speaking during the pre-game. A thousand bucks says if the Bears would have won the SB, he wouldn't go on during the pregame and ruin the celebration because the ass hole would BE there!
