NFL Network

Senator John F. Kerry reporting for duty. This time he is for it, before he's against it - and of all the topics he could choose as an ex-Presidential candidate... he's made his choice.

To get the NFL Network on all cable carriers.

Wow. My god. He could have picked a world hunger, laptop for every child, or better rechargeable batteries... Here's the cutn'dapaste from Network World:

Senator John F. Kerry (D - Mass) is not letting this travesty continue. He's sent a letter to National Football League Commissioner Roger Goodell and President and CEO of National Cable & Telecommunications Association Kyle McSlarrow begging them to put aside their differences and get the NFL Network on every TV in the land. This is of utmost importance for Kerry and his constituents here in the great state of Massachusetts, since the New England Patriots final game of the regular season is scheduled for the NFL Network, meaning many might not be able to see it. (Not sure if Kerry knows that game can be seen on a local broadcast channel as well, but why let details get in the way.)

If Kerry showed this kind of resolve in 2004, he could have sent his letter in an envelope with a return address of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

I guess he really really wanted to see the Bears get plastered last night? Rex is out. The Bears are out. A mere shell of a team that went to the Super Bowl and was predicted to do it again. (not win it... heavens no, that's been the Pat's to lose since the Colts knocked them out last year) Sigh. How long until pitchers and catchers report? Wow - that's a long time. Basketball and Hockey it is then.
