Hank Williams Jr. has a new song, but it won’t be played on ESPN’s Monday Night Football:Barry Sanders and Jim Scott will start things off tonight

Williams’ has cut new song “I’ll Keep My …,” calling out “Fox & Friends” and ESPN after an interview last week on the Fox News talk show led to the end of his association with the sports network and “Monday Night Football,” long home to his “Are you ready for some football?” theme.

He’s also scheduled to appear on “The View” and “Hannity” on Tuesday to discuss the uproar that sprung up after he made an analogy that President Barack Obama and House Speaker Rep. John Boehner golfing together was like Nazi leader Adolph Hitler and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu playing a round.

Williams’ theme song has been part of “MNF” since 1989. The song was a version of his hit “All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight” that he altered to match each week’s game. He owns the song and all the rights to it, so ESPN will not be able to use it in any way.

Instead, the network says it will use an intro featuring Hall of Fame running back Barry Sanders and soul singer Jimmy Scott prior to the Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions game Monday night. The introduction will change each week.

  1. You present this post as your own, but you copied most of it word for word from another source.

  2. WRAL credit and the link at the bottom of the post…..Next time up we will put them at the top to avoid confusions……Good valid point on your part, but the credit and the link is listed……

    *****And give the dog some credit for the headline….We have some of the best headlines in the business….They are long, but they are original and when you are doing 10-15 per day, that is doing some digging…..*****

  3. Andy I have never heard of this Roch101 who is he? he should stop by more often, keep the good articles coming this is where all sports fans come for there info..

  4. Let’s hope he does stop by more often……We might be able to send him some business and maybe he can so the same for us……..As the former professional wrestler Jimmy Valiant, from up around Stuart, Virginia and not too far from Galax proper used to say, “this is where it’s at daddy”…….

    Jimmy Valiant knew, Bill Dundee knew, Taka Mochinoka knew, Buggsy McGraw knew, Above Average Mike Sanders knew, Roderick Strong knew, Davey Smith knew…….”Ths is where it’s at daddy”…….I have yet to reach a conclusion on what “IT” is, but “IT” is here…………

    Roch likes to rock the boat and bring it on back……

  5. Thanks Mike….We do the footnotes just like you did brother……We copy and paste, but we list the creditors…….We send up to 500 readers a week by links to other sites and many sites like to get that new readership……
