I do have a question though. For Dean and Woodie's speeches, they also seem to slightly condemn other parts of society. This year it was sports, last year it was bankers. And I felt that both speeches were longer than they had to be.
And the Obama cut-off was hilarious.

They have always condemned the negative aspects of sports competition and "financial engineering". Dean has made comments about it for the last 3-4 years about how moving money around to try to make more of it doesn't help society in the slightest. Likewise, he's always pointed out all the issues with sports and how they are presented (just like reality TV). Anything for a the almighty viewer rating and dollar. Guns in the locker room, pretending to bribe officials on the field with cash, carrying a sharpie and pretending to autograph something after a touchdown..... showboating and NO gracious professionalism.
