Finally, someone I pay attention to speaks out against the Fox Sports robot, who is apparently named “Cletus,” because an annoying green-screen graphic that’s the visual equivalent of fingernails on a chalkboard needs a name. Tuesday night, Conan O’Brien spoke for all of us who have been living under the occasional tyranny of Cletus, on his show:

Die, Cletus, die!

    Thank you, Conan! Thank you Lindsey!
    DIE, CLETUS, DIE!

  2. My boyfriend and I both hate that thing. We’ve just been calling it the “agile robot” because it is waay more sprightly than a robot should be. Glad to know it has a real name.

  3. If I ever watched sports, I would be immensely happy about this. Finally, a solution to the robot question: robolocaust! (Allegedly.)

  4. The worst is when the robot gets tricked out for the holidays. i.e. jack o lantern head, santa hat. Please Fox, let him die!!!
