ABC Apologizes for MNF Intro

[JackBurton]

I thought it was dumb, but definitely NOT inappropiate. You can drop by your local church and thank the fvcks there for their complaints.

A lot of kids still don't know what their penis is for.

Don't get disheartened by some of the replies you will, no doubt, get from making that statement. There are some parents that have children they want to watch the game with, and not see nudity or sexual inuendos what-so-ever. VeggieFrog is 20yrs old now, so I don't have that problem anymore.

However OT, I will say... that although I think Will & Grace is one of the funniest shows I have ever seen, I think it is totally inappropriate for it to be shown at 6:00PM and again at 6:30PM dinnertime. There are just WAY to many blatant sexual references for that time of night.

🙂

It's not any worse than Friends, Cheers, Seinfeld, That 70s Show, or any other number of highly-rated shows with much thinly-veiled innuendo. Like someone else said, there's likely to be something just as risque on one of the beer commercials on during MNF.

kinda lame.

 

[Qwest]

best part was when she dropped the towel and TO said something like, "i guess they'll have to do without me.." and then she jumped into his arms.

hahaha

I saw it and thought it was inappropriate. while funny that humor shouldn't be on something kids like to watch as well.

Personally, I find sexual content much more damaging to children than violence. I would much rather my child watch a murder than a boob.

I do hope you're joking.

I see that your sarcasm meter is working.

What about a murderous boob?

Now why does TO say the team has to play without him? There was 10 minutes to kickoff, dam if that doesn't give me time to finish, with a few minutes left over for cuddling and getting a brew! 😛

You have no idea.... Yes, we are laughing our as$es off. This is so stupid it's not even funny.

i missed the part where it says that you can take up public resources to push your stuff. you have the right to print, you don't have the right to have the gov't buy you a press. that should be obvious.

and the fcc hasn't said anything about this so far.

Ok.. I saw the clip this morning.

I think... the controversy was not only about the nudity... I think people were upset cause they felt the add was telling young children:

It is ok to shirk your responsibility when you want to have fun.
It is ok to let your team mates down when you feel like doing something else.
It is ok to have sex in a locker room with a naked woman who is not your wife.

That is where I think most of the complainers are having a problem.

🙂

You don't think it has anything to do with the couple being interracial?

A barbie look-a-like throwing herself at a black football player?
