Keith Olbermann's new job

[25Caliber]

Olbermann was always good on ESPN, good to see he's going back to something he knows about.

Olbermann was funny as hell when ESPN was just getting off the ground. I used to love him and Dan Patrick

He should have stayed in sports...his politics leaves a lot to be desired even if you agree with him. He comes off as a very bitter human being.

Those that have worked with him do not speak very kindly of him, including Dan Patrick. Dan Patrick I like...looks like he would be a blast to work for.

Any network that decides to give Keith Olbermann a job doing sports needs to realize that he's been such a polarizing figure that a large percentage of their audience is going to turn to a different channel whenever Keith's mug comes up on the screen.

Here's the thing about Olbermann.

Olbermann was the voice of Bush Derangement Syndrome, the guy that Bush Haters could turn to when the rest of the media was too scared to criticize him after 9/11.

But once Bush was gone, he had nothing more to talk about.
