Madden & Michael's...Not Right??

It was November 4Th a beautiful night, (by weather standards) here in Miami. I tuned in to watch by beloved Philadelphia Eagles host the rival Dallas Cowboys. All focus was on Terrel Owens and long rivalry between these two teams. Rivalries and outspoken players is part of what I think football is all about. It makes it so much more exciting.
As my Eagles were getting hammered, John Madden and Al Michael's began to speak of Andy Reid's personal family crisis. It's no secret that his son's are in the midst of legal problems. For god sake it's been in every paper.
But, what really pissed me off and made me lose ALL respect for John Madden (I never had a reason to have any for Al Michael's) was how they claimed to feel so bad for good old Andy. "How he's the nicest guy", "He's so down to earth", "How much pain he must be going through", etc...
They went on for almost 3 minutes exposing details of Andy's personal troubles. Only to be interrupted by a 8 yard run. These guys are parasites like the others they spoke of.

You claim to respect him! Think he's a "Great" guy! You both should be ashamed of yourselves!!!

Talk about the game. That's what you get paid to do.
