MNF flap

By now I'm sure you've heard about the controversy about ABC's introduction to their Monday Night Football telecast. While I think the segment was kind of dumb and needless, so what? ABC should be allowed to be dumb and needless if they want to. Check out this post on it quoting a few different articles. Not really sure where Tony Dungy gets that it's racist. Just because a black man was involved in something dumb doesn't make the dumb thing racist. What really annoys me is Michael Powell.

While we get a lot of broadcasting companies complaining
about indecency enforcement, they seem to be continuing
to be willing to keep the issue at the forefront, keep it hot
and steamy in order to get financial gains and the free
advertising it provides.

Basically, doing something and then complaining about that thing being banned makes you a hypocrit. Nice.
