Message: [QUOTE="Symphony Steve, post: 4236679, member: 911"] Don't wanna get too off topic here. I'll simply quote Nantz himself on the subject: “When I interviewed Tony Dungy last year at the Super Bowl, I got some flak about allowing him to talk about his personal faith,” Nantz told Baptist Press before the annual “Legends for Charity” dinner Jan. 31 in which he received the “Pat Summerall Award” for character, integrity and leadership. [B]“But I don’t think we should be so jaded or cynical that we don’t focus on the goodness of people and their faith,” Nantz said.[/B] Not only do I disagree that the 'goodness of people and their faith' are the same thing (you find evidence of this falsehood several times every day), it simply has no place on a sports broadcast. Except maybe NASCAR, which doesn't try to hide its Evangelical roots at all. Which is why in part its audience is plummeting. Apologies, Mods, I'm back off my soapbox. [/QUOTE]
