1. I quite agree.
I always think T.O. is so funny. Can't help it. Even when he came and beat the Chargers last season, he entertained the crowd. He loves cheering - he loves the boo's - he just loves the crowd's attention.

I would drather have my daughter see that silly scene, and explain the absurdity to her, than pictures of children with missing limbs screaming in an Iraqi hospital. That I have trouble explaining to her - that we Americans did that.

4. So your a Father
and its 6 PM West Coast time, the kids are watching Barney and Dad turns on the game.......Mr. Rooney is not expressing moral outrage he is worried about his profits period!.......

The trouble with many folks is that they live in their own worlds and forget that their own personal views are not universal and sometimes arent even common.

As a long time Niner fan I say that T.O. is a stupidly shallow , self involved chicken shit who is afraid to run patterns over the middle. Good riddance to him! (Yeah thats my own world)
