So did they actually pay this guy to write this garbage? I mean, you knew it was coming, just like the race card has to be brought up by somebody every time a black athlete is involved in something (Kobe, the USA Men's Basketball team being jeered by Americans, etc.) - but COME ON!
*sigh*
I think the real source of the outrage was that MNF was showing soft core porn at 6pm on the West Coast. And MNF is a show that fathers watch with their sons so the whole thing was just inappropriate. ABC found the wrong place to promote their show (wrong audience to advertise to, also) and the wrong time. That's it. This isn't about the subconscious of Americans (which sportswriters somehow have special insight into in these situations).
