Mark Vader Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Being the staunch INDY that I am, she doesn't bug me. Her fans bug me because evertime I meet one, I have to ask the very uncomfortable question, "How did you get to be so be dumb?" Does that mean that you are smarter than them?

Mark Vader Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 And oh my what this thread has turned in to. I swear to god, I just wanted to punch an NBC exec in the face, not to turn this into a moronic political discussion. Seriously, doesn't just one person want to punch someone at NBC in the face cuz of this? Just one of you spazzes out there? lol No, but I would'nt mind punching Olbermann in the face.

Offside Number 76 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 It's also amazing that NBC couldn't wait to switch over to the game in the 3rd period. They couldn't help but to slobber all over it when it seemed like a moment they couldn't pass up anymore. Everyone who was anyone was at the hockey game. That includes stars, NBC personnel, Olympic officials, and other athletes. They missed what they could have had to build a sport that is televised on their network. THey also missed a golden chance to build momentum for when the US plays again. Now, people would be drawn in and compelled to watch from here on out. As it stands now, they still have a large audience they'll have to draw back in somehow if the USA continues to play well. The arena, unless they play Canada again, won't have the atmosphere it had tonight. There was no downside to televising that game tonight. This is the one game I would have penciled in as Must See TV. Unfortunately for NBC, they don't get all that......that's why they are dead last in TV ratings and cable ratings. They never make the right decisions or take the right gambles. But their former slogan still sticks in your head, right? Anyway, I do believe that NBC tried to get its market right for this one; I'm not sure it succeeded. They may have screwed this one up, but (as has been stated over and over above and also on SabreSpace), they pretty much HAD to bet on figure skating. (And for those crying about HD, I ended up watching it with friends on SD. Game looked fine. The puck was easy to follow. I think USA won, but if it had been in HD, I would be sure.)

Mark Vader Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 You know, I was really enjoying this one dude make an a$$ out of himself, and then everyone also laughing at him, but you ruined it. You're just too dumb, and think that you need to combat him with your actual political beliefs, which in short revealed to us that you actually think that a political figure needs an ivy league degree to represent you.

Thurman#1 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 that is what you get when liberal's run anything!,,.look at what friggin obama is doing to the country, then you can understand why you get a cluterf----- when the olberman's of the world run anything, its not him, but his way of thinking permeates nbc's! Ha ha ha ha. Funny stuff. You should also do another two or three paragraphs on how flouride in the water has ruined our morality and how that's what caused hockey to be re-scheduled. Great post. To me the really irritating thing is to see the female co-anchor - what's her name again? the one with the deep voice and the Dorothy Hamill cut? - talking to the moose each night at the end of the broadcast. I'm sure it's scripted for her, but God, is it stupid. Today she was apologizing to the stuffed moose for the hockey loss and ended up kissing it. I'm sure they're winning over the eight years old and under females market with that crap but jeez it's irritating for the rest of us. EDIT: It's Mary Carillo. They've got her kissing a freaking stuffed moose head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pBills Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 The game will set records for viewing in Canada. I doubt many in the US even know it's on MSNBC. I don't get why they couldn't at least put it on Universal HD. Exactly, did not know it was on MSNBC. Thought they were just doing the norm and skipping to all of the different events.

dwight in philly Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I still can't believe you brought politics into this. to be quite honest, i do not think i really did. i just offered an opinion as to why NBC did not get it concerning the coverage of the hockey game. i drew a comparison between their political idealogy and how it relates to their cluelessness of not "getting it" when it comes to finding the viewers pulse. i guess this site is loaded with left wingers, guess they "taught me a lesson", with the various names they called me.

MaineMoxie Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 So here's the question: Is there going to be an embargo on doughnuts and strippers? Because even Harper has to be embarrassed right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xsoldier54 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Well, the Czech's and Russia of course. While the USA - Canada game gets relegated to MSNBC tonight in non HD. Or, at least it's in non HD on DTV. Nothing like putting your own country's game on the second tier network in non HD. Here's hoping that NBC, and all of it's suckarse news networks all keep getting your asses kicked in the ratings for years to come. OK, I feel a little better now. lol What a great hockey game. I am an American living in Newfoundland and watched the game in HD on CTV. It was great to see the Americans silence that hateful Canadian crowd. Canadians have a reputation for being extremely nice, but I have lived here for seven years and they absolutely detest America. They have a huge collective inferiority complex when it comes to anything American and hockey is one of the few forums where they have a chance to beat us at something. They are so smug about hockey being "their" game. It was a pleasure to watch the U.S. shut them up. I can't wait to get to work today so I can talk some smack to my Canadian co-workers. All in good fun of course, but they deserve it. I take plenty of heat for being the only American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Jersey Bills Fan Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Your a !@#$in moron. Obama is NOT ruining America. How the !@#$ can people like you forget that Bush !@#$ed up America and Obama has to deal with all the crap that he left them! Your f'n retarded and pathetic. People like you are the reason why a lot of other countries cant stand Americans. Which is sad because most Americans are intelligent and good people. I'm pretty tired of this kind of comment. I'm pretty sure if you measured the amount of "good" America does in the world vs the amount of "bad" the "good" would far outweigh the "bad". People want to focus on the bad. Try to make America a "bad guy". Fine. Americans are as fine a people in the world as any. America is the finest country in the world. If I am judged as an American by mistakes made by OUR government, then I also want to be judged by things like the millions of dollars and aid given around the world to those less fortunate by the American government (let alone it's private citizens). And why are Americans fighting with Americans (i.e. on this board). We all have a vote. use it. And take responsability for the good and the bad. A picture of the WHOLE, please. Oh, and by the way, opinions are encouraged...NOT discouraged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
