Anyway, there are some public figures I admire, but I can't think of anyone, at least not anyone living, whom I idolize to the extent Marti seems to indicate in his "Oh please oh please ask me who mine is" fishing post.

:lol:

:D  I just watched an American Dad episode the other day where Stan's wife, trying to prove a point, asked him if he liked Brit Hume.  Stand replied, "You know damned well I like Brit Hume!"  Just had that stuck in my head.

I don't know who Brit Hume is, but your description of Marti's post is astute :)

He's kind of a bland Fox News anchor.

No shit.  Keeps playing the way he is, I give him 5 seasons before he's tossed onto the pile of perpetually injured QBs, with Vick and McNair.

Ok if we are going to have a serious football discussion lets take it to the NFL thread.  That was just a joke on my part.

No favourites, certainly not any entertainer/celebrity.

In politics,none, save for a lot of respect for gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell.
