These Guys Have all the Fun Indeed

So there's much buzz about this new book on ESPN. And as this exerpt proves, The greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego was living large and in charge back in the day (BTW this exerpt should also prove to some of the fanboyz and girlz out there that the Ego doesn't just quote Shakespeare but also has a working vocabulary that most certainly incorporates quite a few four-letter words). But if you really want to know where and how the Ego got his smooth moves with the ladies you have to look at the book's outtakes. First there is the epic story of The Ego's old high school buddy Chris Berman.

And this charming little anecdote reveals the true meaning of Play Ball!

Good to see the traditions still continue to this very day at ESPN too.

Sure GQ has a warning that these aren't true but come on you know their lawyers just made them say that right?

Whose Ego is Bigger? Keith Olbermann's or Katy Tur's?

Keith Olbermann's Ego got Katy Tur an agent (his own) and a job at WNBC-TV in New York City, the number one media market in the nation, despite her overwhelming lack of a) talent, b) experience, and c) gratitude as evidenced in this twitter post from Katy Tur's ego. Now she's unhappy with her "name" being associated with Keith Olbermann's? Maybe she should have thought about that before she decided to take the express route to a television news career. Here Katy--a song (and a career) for you:

This is Why the Ladies Love Keith Olbermann's Ego.

Discuss.

Jeff Daniels to be Keith Olbermann's Alter-Ego On Aaron Sorkin HBO Series?

So we all know that once upon a time Aaron Sorkin wrote a show called Sports Night. Which of course, is a thinly veiled account of the greatness that was Keith Olbermann's Ego's life during his ESPN days. Which character you ask? Why both of them. Because as you know, the Ego is so much man that not just one fictional character can contain his greatness.
The series ended, sadly, after just two seasons but now Aaron Sorkin has been inspired by the Greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego brilliant cable news career to write a new series based on The Ego for HBO. And who you might ask is going to play the Greatness? Rumor has it that Jeff Daniels is now in negotiations for the part.
Excuse the Ego for saying this, but we're just not getting the resemblence.

***Update***: Something called New York magazine has dared to disagree with Keith Olbermann's Ego.

Jeff Daniels is currently in talks to take the lead role in Aaron Sorkin's HBO pilot about a difficult, smart cable-news anchor, modeled on the likes of Olbermann, Chris Matthews, Anderson Cooper, and Brian Williams. Daniels's jerkiest role to date, in Squid and the Whale, was such a believable, aggravating, nuanced performance of jerkiness that we're sure he'll be a great fit.

***Update #2***The Egotwit has weighed in on this entire casting situation.

Keith Olbermann's Ego needs Diversions

Sunday marked the one-year anniversary of Keith Olbermann's father's death. Here you can see The Ego Twit dispensing advice on how to move past the death of a loved one. Diversions. Yes. Diversions. Like these Twitter Friends of Keith Olbermann.



Now we're not saying that all of these lovely ladies are "dear friends" of the Ego's like Katy Tur but you can bet a lot of them would like to be. Luckily for them, Keith Olbermann's Ego loves nothing better than "diversions".

The Ladies Love Keith Olbemann's Ego

and the Ego loves himself them too. And that's why Keith Olbermann's alter-ego's ego (?) on Aaron Sorkin's new HBO series, modeled 100% after your very own Ego will be a ladies man and then some. Isn't that right Erin?

The Daily got its hands on the still-untitled script, which Sorkin researched by spending time with Olbermann before the newsman ditched MSNBC for Current; here, the Olbermann stand-in is named "Will McAllister," and he's a network-taunting liberal who likes the ladies. In fact, the show opens with McAllister returning from a sexy St. Lucia vacation with ESPN's Erin Andrews, only to find — in a twist that will surprise no one who has watched an Aaron Sorkin show before — that his show's new executive producer is his former love Mackensie McHale.

According to the Daily, in the pilot episode we learn that Keith Olbermann Will McAllister has alot of hate-filled email and a reputation of being difficult to work with, even asking, "Are you telling me that Bin Laden is easier to work with than me?" Sounds like the Ego we all know and love right ladies?

Chain Keith Olbermann's Ego?

Who the hell does Al Gore think he is? I mean sure the guy has an Oscar and a Nobel Prize and was the Vice-President but come on, telling Keith Olbermann to chain The Ego (in all its greatness) at the door of Current TV?

The ex-MSNBC'er has been told to chain up his considerable ego at the door."No doubt Al is very happy to have Keith join his network," one Current TV insider tells me. "Yet Keith is a double-edged sword. He'll attract a huge amount of media and viewers to the network, but let's be honest, he's a total pain in the ass to deal with."

Obviously, Al does not understand that the Ego is what makes Keith Olbermann, THE Ego. This does not bode well for either Keith Olbermann or The Ego.

Keith Olbermann's Ego Exits Stage Left

It's a wrap. After eight tumultuous years on air at MSNBC, Keith Olbermann's Ego exits, stage Left.

MSNBC and Keith Olbermann have ended their contract. The last broadcast of "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" will be this evening. MSNBC thanks Keith for his integral role in MSNBC's success and we wish him well in his future endeavors.

There's a certain implied "Don't let the door hit you on your ass" in that statement, no?

Television has never been known for its gratitude however, and the Comcast effect must already be in place at MSNBC for The Ego to exit so quickly after they took over.

This blog has snarked on Keith's world-famous Ego for the last couple of years. We've had some good laughs at his expense and we thank him for never suing his for it. While not always thrilled with the bravo and bluster, and while we could have done without some of his excesses and obsessions, we now end our relationship, such as it was, as a fan.

Good luck to Keith Olbermann's and his world-famous Ego in all that he does from this point forward and thank you for being a voice in the wilderness for the eight years. So here's a song in your honor, Mr. Olbermann.

Back to Work for Keith Olbermann's Ego

It's a New Year and it's Back to Work for the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego. As we kick off 2011 it's important that you remember one thing above all else: it's all about me.

Happy New Year from Keith Olbermann's Ego!

Keith Olbermann's Ego and his very dear friends here would like to wish you all a very Happy New Year!

Keith Olbermann's Ego will Live Forever

Many people admire the Ego's physique (aka "more to love") and now the Ego has proof that his preferred workout method leads to a longer life. Sez so right here.

Frankfurt, Germany, December 6 -- A rather bizarre study carried out by German researchers suggests that staring at women's breasts is good for men's health and increases their life expectancy.

According to Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist and author of the study, gawking at women's breasts is a healthy practice, almost at par with an intense exercise regime, that prolongs the lifespan of a man by five years.

She added, "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female, is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out."

A five-year research on 500 men Researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany did an in-depth analysis of 200 healthy males over a period of five years. Half the volunteers were instructed to ogle at the breasts of women daily, while the rest were told to refrain from doing so.

At the close of the study, the researchers noted that the men who stared at the breasts of females on a regular basis exhibited lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and lesser episodes of coronary artery [a blood vessel that carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body.] disease.

Sexual desire linked to better blood circulation The researchers declared that sexual desire gives rise to better blood circulation that signifies an overall improved health.

Weatherby explained the concept stating, "Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There's no question: Gazing at breasts makes men healthy.

"Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four to five years."

In addition, she also recommended that men over 40 should gaze at larger breasts daily for 10 minutes.

The Ego will never die.

Keith Olbermann's Ego-Twit has Returned.

After a few days protesting Sady Doyle's pathetic accusations, Keith Olbermann's Ego Twit has returned in victory. As it should be.

Update: Gawker and their shitty little comments remain on the Ego's enemies list for obvious reasons.

Keith Olbermann's Ego Twit has left Twitter

Now see what you evil mean twitter types have done to the fragility that is Keith Olbermann's now-shattered Ego? Keith Olbermann has left Twitter. See, it even says so on Huffington Post. The Ego doesn't tweet just for the fun of it people. I thought by now that people would understand the immense neediness that is Keith Olberman's Ego. How dare anyone ever question what the Ego (or the Ego-Twit in this case) says or does? See what happens? Twitter accounts get closed.

Olbermann began receiving a flood of heated criticism on Twitter for hosting Moore and for retweeting Jagger's post. In response, Olbermann apologized for any offense he had caused, but denied that he had done anything else wrong.

Again, people should know the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego well-enough by now to know that the Ego should never, ever be criticised. For anything. Ever. What part of that is so difficult for people to understand?
And this was even after the Ego-Twit tried to, sorta, kinda, apologize.

Rape has touched my family, directly and savagely, and if anybody thinks I have addressed it without full sensitivity, then that assessment is the one that counts, and I apologize. But these accusations that I "revealed" an accuser's identity by retweeting Bianca Jagger's link, or that I 'shamed' an accuser by asking a question about the prosecution of a man governments are trying to bury, or that I do not 'understand' charges that have yet to be presented in their final form, reflect exactly the kind of rushing to judgment of which I'm accused, and merit the same kind of apology I have just given.

The Ego sacrificed himself by revealing that a female relative was raped and that it took her 20 years to "get over it". See the lengths to which the Ego is willing to go to on Twitter to simply share with you ungrateful bastards (and bitches--gotta keep it co-ed right?) even if it hurts himself a relative in the process? That's giving people. What finer definition of sacrifice could you possibly find than someone willing to use a relative's savage rape for his own exoneration of accusations that he retweeted the names of the women allegedly raped by the WikiLeaks dweeb which were posted in a retweet of Bianca Jagger's?

So The Ego has decided to stop tweeting. It's your own fault really. That and Bianca Jagger. And possibly Michael Moore. And of course, all those evil Twitter types. The Ego hopes you're happy. Now how will he amuse himself? More importantly, how will he receive the praise and adoration which is so vital to his utter survival?

And Gawker can bite Keith Olbermann's Ego. I hope they're hacked. What? They were already? How could they tell the difference? They are hacks, not like the genius that is Keith Olbermann's Ego.

Update: And what is it with women trying to use the Ego to get their 15 minutes of fame? Isn't it enough that I got Katy Tur a job at WNBC despite her obvious lack of talent at just about any and everything? And now Salon is on the Ego's enemies list too for printing this idiot's self-serving blather. The Ego is still waiting for her apology--there are NO charges against Aussange, just complaints.

Keith Olbermann's Ego really likes oysters and of course, himself

But do you know who is not getting the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego? The suits at NBC. Howie Kurtz breaks it all down for you here.

The Rumors of Keith Olbermann's Ego's Demise

are greatly exaggerated. The Ego returns Tuesday. Yes, this Tuesday. Be there. Boost those ratings minions.

Keith Olbermann's Ego Apologize? For What?

Apologize?

Network sources tell Playbook that Keith Olbermann was suspended because he refused to deliver an on-camera mea culpa, which would have allowed him to continue anchoring “Countdown.” Olbermann told his bosses he didn’t know he was barred from making campaign contributions, although he is resisting saying that publicly. Olbermann may not hold as many cards as he thinks. He makes $7 million a year and MSNBC’s prime time is not as dependent on him as it was before the addition of Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell, who make considerably less.

Seriously? They want Keith Olbermann's Ego to a-p-o-l-o-g-i-z-e? Don't those pinheads at MSNBC get that the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ego is never, ever wrong? And to admit it on air? Are these people smoking crack? They should apologize to Keith Olbermann's ego and the Ego simply refuses to back down to pinheads. As it should be.

So anything new about Keith Olbermann's Ego lately?

As you know, having this blog seemed rather redunant given the EgoTwit's daily comments on Twitter. But suddenly, the EgoTwit has gone silent. Did NBC take that away from him too? Poor Keith Olbermann's Ego. Phil Griffin simply does not get the genius that is (or is that was) Keith Olbermann's Ego.

Keith Olbermann's Ego can Communicate with Dogs and Cats

Keith Olbermann's Ego is so brilliant that he can communicate with animals. No really. See?
It says so right there on Twitter. So in Honor of the Ego's Ego's (or is it the Ego Twit?) we give you this musical tribute to the greatness that is Keith Olbermann's Ability to Talk to Animals.

Keith Olbermann's Ego's Stunning Mystery Companion

The Ego loves the Post. No seriously. It's 100% true that Keith Olbermann's Ego love the NY Post when they talk about the Ego's latest hot babe like they did here.

Keith "Uberdork" Olbermann was showing off a new brunette girlfriend at Monday night's Yankees game. The bombastic MSNBC commentator was spotted by our spy "with his arm round the woman, who looked a lot younger than him, in her early 30s. He was taking pictures of them together on his cellphone and chatting to her throughout the game," causing some fans to speculate, "She must have been secretly wearing earplugs." Olbermann split with his much younger WNBC reporter girlfriend, Katy Tur,more than a year ago.

Okay so they could have dropped the "Uberdork" but come on would the Ego be banging these beautiful babes if he was truly a Uberdork? Anywho, the Ego loves the love and since this is the summer of love for the Ego, The Ego has dedided to dedicate this tune to his latest babe.
