If it was after labor day, I'd say the QB.
As it is, the other 2 have such a huge head start.
I'll say Bill O.


What's funny, is that the poll sits now at 4-3-3, with the Browns QB losing his job first in the lead. The radio host's poll had the Browns QB losing at 65% a few hours after he put it up.

I didn't figure the Browns QB situation would really be a choice on this messageboard. I think Spicer will lose his job first. I'm guessing Fox News will wait longer for an air-tight case against Bill before letting him go.


Spicer will go right to Fox and Friends.

Bit unfair on the American football player, that: he actually has a skillset and has put some effort into mastering his craft. However crap he is at AF, he can't be a more incompetent fuckweasel than the other two so long as he mostly runs in the right direction while he's on the pitch.


Now see, here you go trying to confuse us Americans again.

The only way I can keep track of American football vs. world football is that the former is played on a "field" while the latter being played on a "pitch."

Players in either sport run in the wrong direction on some few occasions, so you are right to point out that the player is providing a valuable service in trying to keep track of the proper direction to go.

And a number of British fiction writers I've come across have used the term 'soccer' so don't blame us entirely for not understanding football the way much the rest of the world does.

But it's certainly coming on in this country, the round checkered ball variety.

I think that all this recent violence in the streets of political origin in the US is actually just to purpose of getting into the spirit of things as we latch on to the international version of football, and all that entails.

Mea culpa.
(I think a fair few of the British writers who talk about soccer are aiming their fiction at the American market, btw.)

I was just -too effing busy!- learning about Benjamin Britten and Arnold Bax and Peter Maxwell Davies and Deep Purple (and enjoying the heck out of all of it) from your great "pitch" of an island to keep up with the the famous names playing for Manchester United just now. Sorry!

Ha!

But seriously, it is catching on here with the younger generation more and more. I think Mia Hamm and the US women's national soccer team generally have been doing much for that.

Status: offline 		The term soccer is originally English, as a matter of fact, but some have turned against it since it became normalised as the American term for proper football a while back. There's also a class issue at work, I suspect: the term soccer is used a lot at in public* schools where they normally play rugby instead. Most would feel that the de-proling of football was a lost battle by the time the premier league was founded, but there's a faction among the underclass who feel that 'soccer" is a poncy term used by posh folk who have no business pretending they like footie in the first place.

*(or private schools, if you're American...)

who would call it figure skating when you race downhill on a snowboard for example?

I give it 50-50. One Murdoch says he stays. One says he goes.

O'Reilly is popular.

I'm amazed Spicer still has his job. He's seen as weak (something Trump hates), isn't very knowledgeable, can't think on his feet. The only reason I can imagine he's still there is that everyone else is smart enough to refuse the position.

I find that picture oddly appropriate for this situation, considering that the picture makes it look like charlie brown has a massive erection, and that is what O'Reilly was just canned for...

So I guessed right.
It's kind of a bummer as Bill was one of the very few voices of reason on FOX (sometimes).
Oh well, that opens a job for Spicer when he gets canned in favor of Gronkowski.

I figured Spicer would be the first to be canned. I didn't think Bill would keep his job very long, but I figured he was popular enough and FOX News would have attempted to ride it out a bit longer.

I'm sure O'Reilly will either find a place to land, or will retire altogether. I'm sure he's not hurting for money.

FOX had to buy him out of his contract ... to the tune of $25M. He'll be fine. Look for: "The No-Spin Network" to launch soon.
