Roberts tried pulling cable strings

Pat Roberts has been busy chairing the Senate Intelligence Committee, but not too swamped to intervene on behalf of frustrated Kansas State University fans. The Kansas Republican called NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and urged him to allow Kansans to be able to watch K-State play in the Texas Bowl on Dec. 28 on the NFL Network without having to buy the channel or upgrade their cable system, ABC News reported. “Every Kansan should be able to cheer on their team, be it the Wildcats, the Jayhawks or the Shockers,” Roberts said. “K-State fans should not be kept from watching the Texas Bowl just because they subscribe to a particular cable company.”

    Yup, it is a matter of vital importance that the sheeple get to watch their negro ballgames. Let’s hope that the friendly undertaker keeps up the good work.

    Viva La Raza Blanco!!

    How interesting that Pat Roberts can jump on this issue but that belated Intelligence Report is still not ready? Well, those are his priorities.

    How about the Kansans who died in Iraq because of enablers of Bush like Pat Roberts?

    They don’t get to watch any games, do they, Pat.

    This is about as important as those stupid artsy fartsy statues on Douglas Street.
