Chazberg Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I'm still confused as to what we're supposed to find funny in the Tino Martinez one.And ask me that question again after Neckbeard's start Monday Night. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milo Meningocele Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Don't forget this gem!That's the first one I laughed at. Seconded. As for the original post, I think it's officially not funny if you have three different guesses out there as to why it might be funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have some sand stuck in your vagina or something?Knock it off. We might debate whether the headlines are funny, but that certainly wasn't.Milo, while the phrase is rooted in deep racism, I don't think the application here was unless it was referring in any way to Asia or an Asian player. On first glance, I took it as a poor choice of words, unintentionally echoing an abhorrent historical phrase. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

DEAD! Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Milo, while the phrase is rooted in deep racism, I don't think the application here was unless it was referring in any way to Asia or an Asian player. On first glance, I took it as a poor choice of words, unintentionally echoing an abhorrent historical phrase.... I think it was just a poor choice of words because it was about yellow cards, but considering the story was about Sydney FC's play in the Asian Champions League, you could see the connection... I would add that there are far worse words to describe Asians... I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, just a bad choice of words, considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersurge Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I have to say, I'm a bit dissapointed that a harmless and humorous thread has turned into such a "I'm so mature and you're so juvenile" bore fest. Geez, its just a silly thread. Why does everyone have to jump up on their pedestal and rip everything apart? If you don't get the humor, or if its truly not funny, then fine. Is there a need to continue rip into all of the posts and criticize others for finding humor in silly things?Some of you guys need to take it easy and stop being so stiff. You're making it real hard for some of us to have a little fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sguse1 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Well i really dont think the misspelling of a last name is really juvenile or mature humor...its just a mistake that hardly any of us even noticed and someone thought we would even care.

Joshawaggie Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Hmm, looks like MSNBC has made quite the error in their NFL section. They use a helmet pic for a team, and the helmet they use doesn't even exist...http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15321543?pg=8#...f_powerrankingsthe pic....They also use the Chargers' and Vikes' old helmets, but that's not as bad as using a helmet that doesnt' exist. @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
