It appears Hanks not a big fan of the president.
Terry Boers imaginary sources tell me Puff Daddy was going to fill in but it appears he has bigger issues than Hank.
Hopefully both will be treated the same.........right.

According to him, it was his decision...either way, to me anyway, this theme song was old and annoying 15 years ago. I say good riddance, as long as they don't replace it with some other shitkicker redneck asshole.

This just gives ESPN the go ahead to replace it with an even bigger piece of crap song. I predict it will be that Fergie and friends tonight is going to be a good night giant pile of shit song.

UMN, I'm not sure who ESPN is going to replace Hank Williams, Jr. with as its new "Monday Night Football" intro music if at all. The network was running the risk of offending a lot of people if it continued to air Hank's intro that dates all the way back to 1989 when ABC Sports had the primetime football showcase. They're trying to protect their brand and their image by yanking Hank permanently.

There was nothing better than this tune on a Monday night during my youth.

Edit to add the original from 1970 - 1975. I remember this one too, but it didn't build anticipation quite like the first.

Johnny Pearson's "Heavy Action"...I remember that song was also used in the open of "MNF" when ABC started the primetime showcase in 1970.
