How many nutsos do you predict would be offended and boycotting ESPN?
Probably quite a few. I wouldn't be one of them, but quite a few. But Islam has a much different history with this country in the last 20 years than Christianity does. I'm not saying their reactions would be correct, but this equivalence you're trying to make is false.
A Christian holiday is the most widely celebrated holiday in America, even among non-Christians. I can respect that ESPN is trying to be all 'we don't want to promote any particular religion,' but it's not like this is two minutes of Tim Tebow trying to proselytize and get people to pray. It's one line in an ad for a children's hospital and isn't that big of a deal.

And it really isn't that big of a deal that they removed it either...
