CBS joins the attack...

what's funny is that this happened sunday morning, yet there is no mention of it on the boards until late monday night. it's funny because it proves how nobody gives a crap about CBS and their terrible football coverage and their lousy pregame show. If people actually watched their lousy show, there would have definetely been a thread about it at 1:00 on sunday.


i would be pissed, but i don't care because we just throttled the shit out of michigan and the rest of the country and the media can go fuck off.

let the country make cheap jokes. when i think of buckeye football, i don't think of that. i think about senior thomas matthews giving such an inspiring pregame speech that it left troy smith in tears, who then went out and in his first chance in The Game went out and played like a fucking LEGEND. THAT is what Buckeye Football is all about.

Fuck everybody else.

This is getting a little ridiculous. Too bad Fox isn't taking over until 2007. I wish they were taking over next year, because it would seem beneficial for them to expose the truth about the lack of journalistic integrity on ESPN/CBS' part (two of their big competitors).

It really seems like one of these should be prosecutable in a nation that allows you to sue someone for coffee being hot.

BuckeyeTrail, I think the last sentence just about summed it up for most of us. You have a wonderful economy of words!
:oh: :bow: :io:

The local CBS affilliate here in C-bus did a short story on this commercial yesterday (Monday) morning.

They said that they didn't feel the need to apologize because the commercial time was paid for by an outside party. Kind of like a campaign ad. I don't think we'll be seeing it again, and I don't think that it was even aired in Columbus.

Either way, CBS has joined the attack, but not nationally.

I actually saw this live. First off it was not a commercial. If anyone watches the CBS NFL Pre-game show (My Browns were playing so just getting ready) They have this pathetic attempt at humor called Thurston Long. It is like a cheesey computer newscaster that spoofs the NFL news of the week. During that clip they took a "commercial break" and showed this "commercial" then back to the NFL spoofs.

At first I didn't realize what the heck that was then realized it wasn't a real commercial. When they went back to the studio guys they kinda said that they don't condone any of the stuff that this gimmick does.

Just a little FYI for ya guys.

This is ridiculous. Joke or not, that's over the line. It's not like this was Saturday Night Live or Letterman, or some other comedy-type show. This is basically CBS themselves doing it. :mad1:

Every day it seems as though someone in the media gives me a reason to hate the media even more.
