In a statement, ESPN said, We appreciate his contributions over the past years. The success of Monday Night Football has always been about the games and that will continue.

Williams fumbled when he said on Fox News that Obama and Speaker of the HouseJohn Boehners playing a round of golf together was like Hitler playing golf with [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu.

He also called Obama and vice president Joe Biden the enemy.

Williams later acknowledged his remarks were dumb, but that clearly wasnt enough for ESPN.
