Good stuff. Gotta love the C bomb! |
|
Tiki Barber must call his house all the time... |
|
And then he gets hung up on. |
|
Sounds like the boys are having more fun, even if the heavies won't let them burp in interviews. |
|
Its a good sign when team characters like this are keeping the team energized. |
|
chuckle but... |
|
The interviewer must have been fairly certain that P.K. was a good natured kid who wouldn't get pissed and knock all of his teeth down his throat. Alluding to the notion that PK's last name might be pronounced like a certain taboo "c word" is a cheap question that Maxim magazine or a publication of that ilk might ask. Low rent. |
|
Read the rest of the interview too; he goes into a lengthy discussion of pronouncing his name the incorrect way. Pretty retarded and makes the interviewer look like a 9th grade hack-job. |
|
Yeah, occasionally Rothstein stumbles across an "Irish Insight" but it usually reads more like an interview in Ranger Rick. |
|
from the D-Line-uh Monologues... |
|
Holy crap, Dave. Hysterical on so many levels. Be careful though, Fr. Jenkins might not allow Kuntz on campus if he gets wind of your pun. |
|
wow thats great. haha. |
|
Some of you need a sense of humor |
|
Agreed. This isn't the '50s. It lead to some funny stuff, and I can't imagine any guy under the age of 40 getting offended by it. |
|
The "c word" is nearly as politically incorrect as the "n word". I'm not going to belabor this much further, but it was juvenile and in poor taste. I am still amazed Kuntz didn't recoil when the subject was introduced. And I feel pretty sure that guys over 40 are actually a better audience for the "c word" as younger men would have had much less exposure to the word itself since political correctness has been a constant influence to their generation. |

Should a publication which otherwise supports our great University feel it's appropriate to associate that institution with sexual humor so unsubtle it would bring guffaws from eleven-year-olds competing with underarm noises? Male kids, of course. Apparently the author decided his female readers aren't the type we see in the chapel and the grotto. Our Lady's University? |
|
Lighten up, Francis(cans)! |

Let us also point out that it wasn't an article in the actual paper--it's a *BLOG POST*. While I think that MSM needs to be held to a stricter standard for content, facts, etc., there is a gray area when it comes to MSM blogs that people are still fleshing out. Be offended, or not be offended, or laugh at it, or whatever, but it's not like it was on the front page of the paper. |
|
Yeah, Voice is right, Pat shoulda knocked that dude's teeth down his thr....wait...what? It was funny. Pat obviously thought it was funny...he seems to have a pretty good sense of humor. I would assume Rothstein knew he could joke around a little with him. Plus, yeah, this didn't go in a newspaper. |
|
What people are offended by is always a personal thing, so I can't say people who are offended by this are "wrong." But I thought it was hilarious, and for the record I am (obviously, by my name) a female. It would have been different had he called someone that word, but it was just a discussion about how his name is mispronounced sometimes. The word wasn't even used. I took the entire thing as if it was meant in good fun, which I'm sure is exactly how it was meant. |

Forrest: Earl, what's going on? |
|
This Sucks. Ragone out for season. |
|
Ya I just saw Ragone is out for his whole soph season. That sucks. |

Does Don E. Brook's comment say anything about how far things can be taken, and how much further still? I agree that others have the right not to be offended by things I find offensive. I agree that everyone has his/her own sense of humor. But all will recognize the need for boundaries in a civilized society. Of course, we will then disagree on where those boundaries should be. I simply point out that DEB's joking may slip the subject matter further on down the line so that something that had already crossed my boundary may now be threatening to cross the boundaries of others. It's even possible that that was DEB's real point. (And I'm rather pleased by this opportunity for civil discourse with those of you who disagree with me.) As for Ragone--DARN! [;-) |

We had a classmate named Kuntz. We got over it by the time we hit third grade. However, Guttfahrts had us going through the fifth. |
