Olympic Madness

February 21, 2018

We really like you, Mike Tirico…you are an excellent choice to replace Bob Costas in hosting the Olympics telecast.

The number of commercials, filler interviews, and incessant moving from one event to another has been maddening. The […]

Gratitude

2026 Olympics

February 19, 2018

Enough is enough
