what did you end up doing? stayed home. let me give you an interesting pregame line-up. kid rock, marine five, president obama, which one doesn t fit? the president doesn t exactly fit that line-up. they are going before the nfl season opener. you should see the looks on my co-hosts faces. where are you going with that? the president is going right up against that pregame concert right before the nfl season opener. he s in fact going to speak on thursday, september 8th. that is, of course, the same night as that nfl season opener at 7:00 eastern time or 4:00 pacific. on the west coast. that s the big problem for west coast folks. they ll still be at work. they re still going to be in traffic for another two hours trying to get home. they re not going to see that primetime speech because the nfl game kicks off at 8:00 p.m. or the pregame stuff. the game kicks off at 8:30. the white house reportedly this morning furious about the whole thing. behind the scenes.
