Hank Williams Jr. objects to Browns

LOS ANGELES — Hank Williams, Jr. stormed off the set of his Monday Night Football pre-game music video shoot Monday morning. Williams refused to sing a version of his famous “Are you ready for some football” for Monday's contest between the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns. “I’m not sure what the Browns do, but I know it’s not football,” said Williams. “Saying the Browns are ‘rowdy’ and are ‘ready to fight’ is a flat-out lie. The last thing I want to do is hurt the integrity of the song I’m most famous for.” After taking a few hours to calm down, Williams was convinced to return to set. “This song is his only source of income,” said MNF producer Kip Gentry. “I reminded him I could snap my fingers and have Toby Keith here in under an hour.”

Then Gentry's a fool. Bocifus has more money coming in than anyone at ESPN. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank_Williams,_Jr._discography
