I had yet to see one person react negatively to the news that Joe Theismann is no longer broadcasting Monday Night Football games ... that was, until I stumbled upon this article in the LA Times, which quoted one person who couldn't figure out why ESPN would fire Joe Theismann.

That person was, perhaps not unpredictably, Joe Theismann.
Joe Theismann, bumped out of the ESPN "Monday Night Football" booth and replaced by Ron Jaworski, said Monday the move "came out of the blue" and he has "no earthly idea" why it was made.
Evidently, Joe Theismann doesn't read blogs. If he did, he'd quickly begin to gather that the earthly idea behind his firing was that no one really liked him. But, don't sweat it, Joe ... bloggers dislike most commentators, particularly ones in high profile jobs. And I'm sure you'll land on your feet somewhere else, too.

Oh, and you know who else might react negatively to the news that Joe Theismann is out of MNF job? College football fans. Why? Well, according to Joe, ESPN, offered him the Saturday night college football gig along with Brent Musberger. Maybe ESPN could even -- and you'll love this idea -- team him back up with Paul Maguire.
