NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- In a stunning blow to NBC and the new NFL season, Hank Williams Jr. held a somber press conference today in his hometown of Nashville, Tennessee.
"I am simply not ready for some football," said a misty-eyed Jr., who wiped snot from his glistening, dyed beard. "I tried to get pumped up. I played 'Madden' for like two weeks, but I am truly more interested in 'Jon & Kate Plus Eight' right now. If any NFL teams had someone as ferocious as Kate Gosselin on the offensive line or a coach as douchey as Jon Gosselin, I just might be ready for some football. That is not likely to happen, unfortunately."
Williams' band has been prepared for weeks to record this year's NFL theme song. However, the recording session has been indefinitely postponed with the band citing a lack of inspiration.
"After 15 years, I just couldn't continue living the lie," he announced. "So as of today, I have turned over all of my lame NFL theme song responsibilities to Faith Hill. She has repeatedly proven her ability to sing about things she doesn't believe in. And you've all seen her sing that NBC 'Sunday Night Football' song that is an incredibly lame twist on a great Joan Jett song. She's truly got what it takes."
