NFL - Porn ruins Super Bowl coverage

Eurosport - Mon, 02 Feb 16:28:00 2009

Viewers in Arizona have complained after TV coverage of the Super Bowl was interrupted by a pornographic film.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL 2009 Superbowl - 0

KVOA-TV in Tuscon said it was "dismayed and disappointed" after footage from an adult movie appeared late in the game coverage on the Comcast cable network.

"KVOA will investigate what happened and make sure our viewers get answers," company president Gary Nielsen said.

"When the NBC feed of the Super Bowl was transmitted from KVOA to local cable providers and through over-the-air antennas, there was no pornographic material," he added.

"I just figured it was another commercial until I looked up," viewer Cora King told the Arizona Daily Star.

"Then he did his little dance with everything hanging out."

The Arizona Cardinals had just taken the lead in the match when the disruption occurred. The Pittsburgh Steelers went on to win the title with a late touchdown.

  4. You're only half right. Basketball WAS invented by­ a Canadian, but it was invented IN the U.S. after the­ inventor moved there. Look it up.

  14. I turned it on out of interest. After 5 minutes viewing­ and literally no action on the pitch, I gave up.­ American football is SOOOOOOOOOOO broing. How can they­ string out a match over so long a period. The game­ itself is only supposed to last 60 minutes yet can run­ to 3 hours or more. Ridiculous! Just an excuse to get­ people to buy food and drink during all the stoppages.­ YAWN! YAWN!

    From Simon P, on Tue 3 Feb 4:44PM

  15. I believe the World in "World Series" was­ called this after a newspaper of the same name that­ organised the competition.

    Sports sport...If you dont­ enjoy it dont watch it !

    Baseball started in the UK­ too. Had a Great grandfather who represented England in­ it, just a few rule changes and the addition of gloves­ for all fielders otherwise pretty much the same game.

    To all you guys saying Rugby players don't wear­ protection bla bla bla, they don't need to wear­ it. Most tackles in rugby are fairly slow pace affairs­ with tackles coming from slow running players. In­ american football you can get one 260 pound player­ running full speed 30 yards before hitting another­ player running full speed. The sports are completely­ different. Loads of people died before helmets became a­ part of the game and helmets requires other protection­ or else people will break each others ribs.

    And by the­ way...rounders is based on baseball!!!

  19. I would have thought that the American audience would­ have been delighted by the sight of a naked man dancing­ after all most of the fans and some of the players have­ yet to come out of the closet!
