On the radio, Ed Schultz makes a confession he hasn't admitted to MSNBC yet...can Keith forgive him?

Seems Ed is deathly afraid he won't fit into the MSNBC culture, or so he told his radio audience today, because...insert Steph drama sting here...

...he HATES BASEBALL!!!!

From what he says, all they do at MSNBC is talk Yankees and Mets. (Except, I assume, for Keith, who talks about all the teams, not to mention the 1899 Cleveland Spiders.) And Ed thinks baseball is the slowest, most boring game on earth.

Actually, Keith even opined once on Dan Patrick's show that he imagines that people who don't grow up with baseball as part of their culture must find it as stultifyingly boring as he thinks soccer is. Then again, Ed doesn't have that excuse.

Imagine him approaching Keith just before he goes live.

ED: Keith, I know you're about to start your show, but I have a confession to make that I will feel a whole lot better if I just get it over with right now. I fear you're not gonna like it, and it might help for you to have an hour to get it out of your system before you can come after me.

KEITH: What? How bad could it possibly be? You once dated Ann Coulter? You're going out with Katy?? Come on. Out with it, friend.

ED: Um, Keith...I hate baseball.

KEITH: You...(disbelieving)...HATE baseball???

ED: Yes. I think it's the slowest, most boring game on the planet.

KEITH: Get off my set.

ED: Sorry--

KEITH: Come to think of it, GET OFF MY NETWORK.

ED: Keith--

KEITH: You think I'm kidding? Griffin's my companion. He'll dump you as soon as he signed you. All I have to do is say the word and you will be gone faster than Michael Steele's sense of self-respect.

ED: Now just wait, Keith--let's be reasonable--

KEITH: OUT! OUT! And don't darken my door again!!!!

FLOOR DIRECTOR: Keith, we're on in three--two--

KEITH (under his breath): Damn son of a...thinks he can come on MY network and say that...

FLOOR DIRECTOR: One!

KEITH: Which of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow??...(looks up from script) HIRED and FIRED! MSNBC's newest host cooks his own goose after only one airing of his new show! The reason? BLASPHEMY!...(returns to script) The President "Czechs" in!...
