Al Michaels: Do You Believe in Talking Points?! YES!!!

Attaturk struggled to stay awake last night watching the debut of the NFL Season, seeing as he is a pathetic and hopeless fan of the National Football League.

I have long been aware that the voice of ABC Sports, Al Michaels, is a Republican. That is all fine and good, whatever.

But I wasn't expecting him to engage in cheap shots at Kerry for the purpose of blathering during what was a pretty good game.

Michaels partner, computer football bewitcher and foot powder advocate, John Madden, described a meaningless play were a player juked around a bit and it went as described by the incomparable Bob Sommersby:

MADDEN: It’s what you call a flip flop!

MICHAELS: You’re in the right state for that!


Yes, cheap shots are THAT easy.

Go read the Daily Howler to find out just how ill-timed and disgusting it all is, and why CBS News deserved kudos for something either than Bush's TANG documents.
