Finebaum gets heated on ESPN's 'Outside the Lines' over Hank Williams Jr.Click here for linkThree grown men, including Paul Finebaum, yelled at each other on television over ESPN's decision to end its relationship with country music singer Hank Williams Jr., who recently compared President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler on Fox News.
The Associated Press reports that Williams and ESPN each took credit for the decision Thursday morning to ax his popular song intro to "Monday Night Football." ESPN previously pulled the song after Williams' now-infamous analogy.
Finebaum appeared along with sportswriter Dave Zirin and sports radio talk show host Bomani Jones on the ESPN afternoon program "Outside the Lines" to discuss ESPN's decision to pull the song.
Things quickly got heated when Finebaum took his first opportunity to speak to bash Zirin's earlier comment that ESPN should have never affiliated itself with Williams because of his music's pro-Confederacy themes, including a song called "If the South Would Have Won," which Zirin referenced specifically.
Finebaum called that one of the stupidest things he's ever heard before defending Williams' right to express those opinions.
