Stay home, rowdy friends. "Monday Night Football" isn't looking for a party this year.
ESPN called a musical audible this week for its primetime NFL program, swapping Hank Williams Jr.'s familiar "All My Rowdy Friends" introduction with "Rip It Up," a 1956 song from rock 'n' roll architect Little Richard.
Williams Jr.'s "rowdy" tune — proclaiming a "Monday night party" before each week's broadcast — may sound out-of-place during a season where games planned to be played in empty stadiums, an unnamed network representative told the Washington Post.
Williams Jr.'s management team confirmed the decision Wednesday to The Tennessean.

Yep, sure that's the reason. Had nothing to do with race....
