Ryan Seacrest is the least of NBCs problems

Ryan Seacrest is one the studio hosts for NBC during their Olympic coverage, which is making professional sports reporters angry because oh fuck off stop crying. It pales in comparison to the other thing NBC is fucking up during the Olympics, which is literally everything.

“Everyone in the industry is talking about what a bad move it was to include Ryan Seacrest on the NBC coverage this year,” a journalist for a major sports network, who wishes to remain anonymous, told Radar.
“Ryan is the face of mainstream celebrity media, and there’s supposed to be something sacred and pure about the Olympics. Ryan’s not up to speed on the athletes in the way that they should be covered.”

Uh, this is the same network who employs Peter King to talk about football, and Peter King is a fucking moron. He opens his Sports Illustrated column today by making the case for Russell Wilson to start at QB in Seattle because he “leads all rookies in charisma.” Granted there’s no stat for that, but only because it’s not a real thing. Say what you will about Ryan Seacrest, but at least he’s not ranking the athletes in imaginary categories.
