Probably had nothing to do with little old obnoxious me (or BIG old obnoxious Bill O'Reilly.)<br /><br />Of course they also have not done 'West Side Story' since 1999.

Larry Kelly, you need to stop involving yourself with things that don't concern you. You just LOVE going against the grain and stirring up trouble- It is very obnoxious.
