The nation's chief media regulator expressed disappointment Wednesday over the steamy locker room opening to ABC's "Monday Night Football" broadcast.

Remember, breasts are bad, but beating the shit out of people for three hours on national television for a forty-million dollar contract and a Nike endorsement is perfectly okay. I'm just going to be over in the corner. That last eye roll popped them right out and I think they went under the folding chair.

And they didn't even show breasts during the clip! When she dropped the towel, her back was to the camera, and it stayed above waist-level. Still, I'd take an intro like that instead of having Hank Williams, Jr. singing any day (with all due respect to Hank)...

Blame the Puritan ethic combined with the desire to recreate feeding Christians to the tigers.

I'm for both boobs (I like mine) and football(screaming profanities for three hours is liberating), personally.

I completely agree with that last bit... however, can't say anything about your boobs, since I've not seen them. I am definitely a proponent of boobs in general, though. Must be that Y-chromosome thing...

I said it before. I'll say it again. Just because Disney owns ABC does not mean ABC must be G-rated 24 hours a day. Plus, Walt Disney himself was not squeaky clean from the beginning either. Mickey Mouse started out way less wholesome but evolved into a less obnoxious badass version over the years.

And for crying in the fucking rain, has no one else noticed that the locker room thing is just a play on the old "girls love football players" schtick so popular in high school movies and other stupid stereotypes?

Don't forget ABC Family, which regularly shows 'Whose Line Is It Anyway'. Which has male to male kissing and games where you are supposed to use euphamisisms.

I don't know where you come up with this stuff but you always managed to make me laugh. You need you're own talk show...

See, I was having trouble with my eyes, too....and they pretty much reached their breaking point when Alan Keyes was selected to run against Obama.

I've found that yelling, "AAAAGH YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE" saves considerble wear on them eyeball muscles.

It's harder to do at work, though - I'll grant you that.

Breasts are bad but selling slave-labor crap shoes is good.

Or, as Tracy Morgan put it on SNL's Weekend Update once, Nike shoes are FUBAK: For Us, By Asian Kids.

No sex make people controllable.

Don't forget all the ads for Viagra and suchlike that air endlessly during the NFL games. And the what the cheerleaders wear...

But no, they're not hypocritical, not one little bit.

And then there's the beer commercials... *Cringes every time the phrase "... and twins" is uttered in that stupid fucking song from the Coors ad...*

Man, I just can't understand where this is coming from. I remember all the teen-sex movies in the 80's, which were thought (by many) to be 'cute'. I remember the dramas in the 90's, things like NYPD Blue, which had actual nudity in it. I remember the nightly soaps of the 80's, like 'Dynasty' and 'Dallas', and all the sex and bare skin that went on in those (and many of the actresses in those, like Linda Evans and Joan Collins, going on to pose naked in Playboy, which they mentioned on Retrosexual last night).

And now people are getting all bent out of joint because of someone's bare back? Jesus Christ...did they forget if they don't like it, they can turn it OFF? Or do they just not want anyone else to be able to watch it, either?
