Eagles vs Cowboys pre-show or why USA is fuqed (Hint: f-n PURITANS!)

Ok, I have a question:

What's worse - CNN Showing marines killing wounded alleged combatants or ABC showing some skin?

Well, apparently many people were quite offended by Monday Night Football skit that aired right before Eagles vs Cowboys last night.

Here's a skit: (for complete version with some pics click here ):

Posted on Tue, Nov. 16, 2004 I M A G E S A N D R E L A T E D C O N T E N T In pregame "MNF" segment, "Desperate Housewives" star Nicolette Sheridan pleads with Terrell Owens to forgo Cowboys game for some fun and games in locker room. Network desperately throws in towel in promotion By DOUG DARROCH [email protected] Daddy, why is that woman in the locker room with Terrell Owens? And why isn't she wearing any clothes? And why is she jumping into T.O.'s arms? Daddy? Daddy? Nice job, ABC. The skit that opened "Monday Night Football" made Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction look like small potatoes. If you saw it, your office is probably talking about it today. If you're a parent having to answer uncomfortable questions, you're not real pleased with ABC today. The woman with T.O. was Nicolette Sheridan, playing her character in ABC's "Desperate Housewives." That character, Edie Britt, is described on the show's Web site as a serial divorcee whose romantic conquests keep the neighborhood buzzing. Sheridan was flown in from Los Angeles on Friday, and the bit was taped from 5:30 to 8 p.m. that day in the Eagles' locker room in Lincoln Financial Field. It starts with a shot of T.O. in uniform in the pregame locker room, alone with Sheridan, who is not in uniform - unless you consider a towel a uniform. Here's the dialogue, courtesy of ABC: TO: Hey. NS: Hey there, Terrell. TO: What are you doing here? NS: My house burned down and I needed to take a long hot shower (she says seductively). So where are you off to looking so pretty? TO: Baby, it's "Monday Night Football," game starts in 10 minutes. NS: Oh you and your little games...I've got a game we can play (again seductively). TO: Hey, this is major. We've got Parcells and the Cowboys...and Donovan needs me. NS: What about my needs? What about Edie? TO: Will you stop it...Just tell me what's buried under that pool. NS: You know I can't tell you that. TO: Then I've got a game to play. NS: Terrell, wait...(drops towel) TOSmiling) Aww, hell, the team's going to have to win without me. (She jumps in his arms) - cut to "Desperate Housewives" co-stars Felicity Huffman and Teri Hatcher watching T.O. and N.S. on TV. TH: Oh my god, who watches this trash; sex, lies, deception? FH: And that woman...She's just so...desperate. TH: I know what we should watch. (She picks up remote and changes channel to "MNF.") TH and FH together: ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!! If it was football we were ready for after that, it's no wonder there are desperate housewives.

Now, I'm a parent and a (somewhat) sane human being. I see more of a problem in showing murder on live TV than with a piece of fine-looking ass. But apparently, our bible-thumping population was all up in arms about some hinted booty. And in case you are wondering, the only thing that was shown was just a bare back (not even ass).

WELCOME TO US OF A, PLEASE CHECK YOUR SANITY AT THE DOOR.

There's football on Mondays?

Wow i didn't hear anything about this.

I thought it was cheesy and stupid myself.

Yeah i agree, it does sound extremely corny.. but i'm just surprised that I didn't hear anything about it..

of course i didnt start watching the game till the start of the 4th quarter ..

I don't think that it was an appropriate intro considering the widespread ages of the fanbase. I can perfectly understand why parents watching this with their kids would be embarassed. It's completely irrelevant to the game and irresponsible to the general public.

WHAT? Oh, showing buildings being blown up is totally appropriate... Or watching CSI Miami is appropriate... or any other trauma-inducing shows, such as "American Idol" is ok?

C'mon - you never took your kids to the beach???? What did they show? a bare back? I think the reason why so many were freaked out was because it was black man/white woman.

Big f-n deal! Parents are just ducking responsibility of explaining things to their kids coz' they are just as fuqed up. If people spent more time educating their children, instead of waiting for Surgeon General to show their kids how to jack off, we'd be in a lot better shape.

NUDITY IS GOOD. MURDER IS BAD. Let's get this shit straight. I can already see it - our local talk radio will have something to discuss for the next few years. I already hear comparissons to Jannet Jackson, etc.

this is bull shit.

And your statement further proves my point - WE ARE FUCKED. the end.

It's called news. As for the rest, I don't watch any of that crap.

no comment.

if you want to teach a 7 year old to jack off or any kid for that matter, go for it. I think thats weird. There is a certain age that children are more mature to understand things. Stuff taught too early can be traumatizing and will be misinterpreted no matter how it is explained. You will understand someday.

I think there is a big difference in the type of programming though. Seeing a murder on CSI is expected. Seeing random sexual encounters on Monday Night Football is not.

It's just like reading a NSFW e-mail. As long as it's labeled, you have a good idea of what to expect. If it's not labeled and you open it....WTF....you just got fired or in trouble for something you had no control over.

what is it so bad?


if your kid asks, just say there in love, or some crap like that. I really cant understand why people get so pissed off, especially with the janet jackson thing. That was nothing.

^^^^ Hmmm... two comments... and both are TXTAs! Wow, would have never guessed... a conservative from Bush country? Naaaaaaah..

and that part with "no comment" - well, you might have as well said it. It was rather clear.

I rest my case.

P.S. It may be traumatizing for your kids... my kids have inherited the sane genes of the gene pool I am from. Although, time will tell.

yes, i am conservative. go ahead, roll your eyes again.

Now, you haven't rested any case at all. In fact you made yourself look like an idiot bringing genes and gene pools in a conversation regarding traumatizing. Genes really has nothing to do with it. It is purely psychological and the level of damage will vary from person to person, but genes is not a factor.

OMGZ THE NEKED BACK OF A LADY!!!!!!


OH MY VIRGIN EYES!!!

what do you expect this country has always been the world's most conservative country

i totally agree with you.

that being said, i missed the pregame skit but all i really cared about last night was whether the eagles won or not. and they really did need TO last night.

cowboys got owned. thats all i gotta say.

that pretty much summed it up.

I couldn't believe what i was seeing kind of reminded me of the acting/plot you see in a porno. Poorly done using one of the leagues most selfish, arrogant, a-holes. It belonged on saturday night live not monday night football. Surprised after all the complaining they did about the Janet Jackson costume malfunction they would turn around and do a similar stunt.

Wait, since when is nudity traumatizing?

People are not idiots because they don't know and don't talk - people are idiots when they talk, yet do not know.
