Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."

...It's NBC. You expected better of them then and even now?

Good god, and they'll STILL do anything to boost ratings. It's pathetic.

Way to go, NBC. Your credibility will forever be ZERO. Lowlifes.
