  • Why is the onion satirising sport when there's so much going on globally atm which begs to be lampooned. Not a blip on wikileaks or any of the arab revolutions.. hope washington didn't get the onion too :( Channel 4 in england is putting out some excellent material atm.. We all need great satire!

  • @Alias182 hey fyi- the onion has a regular news show that skewers national/international news, but it's on a different channel. I'm with you. I enjoy more comprehensive satire, but we have to remember Comedy Central's target audience: 16-25 year olds who've never heard of Gadhafi or Tunesia or probably even the Nile, but they know the Bulls beat the Miami Heat a few days back. The regular ONN is a lot better for those whose minds haven't disintegrated to mere batting avgs. and passing yards.

  • I need to find the video of that news story of the prostitute. That's just unbelievable! His excuse is he was driving her home? He was in a fucking nascar race! WTF!

  • @SpeshullProduckshins u do kno its fake right?

  • @SpeshullProduckshins He was trying to increase his testosterone level to help assist with his focus and determination by getting a prostitute to give him a blow job while he was racing.

    This of course proved non-effective as he reached orgasm and closed his eyes, and crashed horribly. Witnesses say there was sperm splattered all over the car.

    Both have survived with minor injuries. The race driver lost his dick when the prostitute bit on it during the crash. He now hangs it off his mirror.

  • 996 rednecks disliked this video

  • Wow almost 1000 dislikes. NASCAR fans are pissed. Im from Daytona and other than the beach weve got racing on ISB and pros on Ridgewood. Someone from that show has been here before......

  • 0:16 to skip the ad

  • ONION NEWS NETWORK

    NEW MANAGEMENT!

    GREEDY JEW COMEDIANS!

  • Wow, why so many negative votes?

  • @itsquazart Rednecks xD

  • God forbid anyone have an opinion about something, or else 146+ people will bite their heads off for expressing that opinion. =/

  • I watched comedy central at 8pm and it wasn't on whats the deal?

  • it be nice if they actually showed full clips of the show not just an ad for it

  • @lukethegreat101 Just watch the show moron

  • @timscott61495 I dont have IFC. all im saying is it be nice for more vids on youtube. I Still love the onion.

  • For all the people that are complaining about people who are complaining: what is a show without critics?

  • This is why I quit watching television years ago--this IS television.

  • wtf, Its tuesday and 10:30 i wish i saw this a few hours ago

  • Big fan of Onion... but this sports thing.... it sucks ass.

  • It's a short advert. What's with all the hating?

    If you don't like it go watch something else and stop wasting our time.

  • wow. 950 dislikes to only 327 likes.  maybe the onion needs to change some stuff up.

  • i bet they liked onion before liking onion news was cool

  • Basically I know this has been said a million times but really all the people who said the Onion isnt what it used to be are probably just experiencing nostalgia

  • An advert for a TV programme that the Rest Of The World probably has no access to. Small surprise the ratio of likes/dislikes is the way it is. Especially when the advert isn't exactly choc full of wittyness.

    It's hardly ruining my day, but might be better to simply not bother putting this kind of thing on this channel lest it impair the brand as it were.

  • It's a 16 second clip what the fuck do you want to be rolling on the floor? retards!

  • i fucking hate onion sice they got on tv, iv seen their show and its pure lame, its too obvious. The actors are sooo fake and that blonde chick is so annoying and she's trying to hard...

  • They obviously had to change their style for a TV audience.

    By that I mean they had to dumb it down.

  • @dootu yeah they did. only moderately smart people are able to find them online. so they didn't have to dumb it down. now people that think the gulf of mexico is a ocean can push a btton and watch it on tv.

  • kinda isn't funny when the entire joke is in the title...

  • Lol, hicks pissed onion dissed NASCAR.

  • Onion is now a lame corporate shithole for jokes: greedy comedians...

  • @galenhenn

    They got popular so they sold out.

    Brilliant logic there.

    Grow a brain.

  • @SabinleRose Grow some balls. A sense of humor will help you eventually.

  • @galenhenn

    I'm the one laughing. I think that means I have a sense of humour.

    Try again.

  • @SabinleRose Okay? You don't have balls, you're irrational (to assume you have a sense of humor now), but laughing? Wow, game over, you win; I can't compete with laughter.

  • @galenhenn

    And you're a giant failure of a troll.

  • @SabinleRose And you have failed as a human being.

  • @galenhenn

    Keep on going fail troll.

    You're actually giving me something to laugh about each morning so carry on.

    I'm eagerly awaiting how you can top yourself tomorrow!

  • @SabinleRose How witty and insightful. You must be the anti troll I've heard all about. Not getting enough attention at home babe? I beginning to think you're lying about laughing.

  • @galenhenn

    drama llama.

  • @SabinleRose Says who, jou?

  • Is there something im missing here? Why is this rated so poorly?

  • @ace2high Maybe because it's a promo instead of a full story like they usually do. Plus, there's no clue in the title that it's a promo.

  • @SuperNewsJunky

    If you can't tell it's a promo from the sixteen second time limit....

    Uh....well.

    I think we have some bigger issues then the Onion's videos.

  • @SabinleRose We? Who's this "we" white man? So, they forgot to post the word "promo" in the title. There are bigger crimes. Stop white knighting their mistake. They're still funny, but if you really want to be honest, you have to admit they done goofed with this one.

  • @SuperNewsJunky

    Oh jesus christ. Another moron who needs to lump opinions into categories.

    I'm not white knighting anything. Fuck, saying someone is white knighting is only an excuse for those who can't back their own stuff up.

  • @SabinleRose Excuse me? I'm not just _any_ moron, you douche. And, just because you recognize that "white knight" is a noun and use it properly in a sentence doesn't mean that you know what it means. Just give up the argument because you lost long ago. I accept your apology.

  • @SuperNewsJunky

    Strawman no justu.

  • @SabinleRose I already accepted your apology. No need to grovel.

  • @SuperNewsJunky

    How fucking childish can you get.

    Seriously.

  • @SabinleRose Are you serious? Do you know where you are? LOL

  • @SuperNewsJunky

    Youtube. The place where the average commenter has the intelligence of a peanut.

  • @SabinleRose Exactly, average commenter.

  • I love sports dome

    please bring ONN to comedy central or adult swim

  • I still love the onion but god damn, wtf is with this shit?

  • Wow, 15 seconds of the onion news has caused this much controversy... Imagine what they could do with 16 seconds!!!

  • fuck the onion I'm unsubbing

  • @beefking69er and?

  • @beefking69er Hey, I checked your subscriptions, you haven't unsubbed yet. umad? :D

  • @TehKrush

    lol you actually checked

  • It's an ad for their show guys, calm down...

  • Usual Babylonian humor, not funny :(

  • @elucidative You subnormal douchebag.

  • Guys, think about it: One episode of ONN is funnier than one episode of the onion... So would you trade 30 minutes for 3? I like it.

    Sports dome is hit and miss but can you complain about it? Something is better than nothing to me.

  • are they talking about that new guy that won the datona 500?

  • Has some cruel bastard taken over college humor and the onion?

  • no ads plssssss

  • Onion, please take note. This new shit is not as funny as the old shit. Look at your dislikes-to-likes ratio. And Brooke is not funny. I'm sorry.

  • is there any other way to drive

  • damn just an advertisement. thought it was the actual thing

  • Eh...I still lol'd at the title.

  • its just an advertisement for their tv program...

  • Fail

  • it's a little funny but not as funny because they're not treating it like a real news story. onion sportsdome isn't as funny as the onion. i wish comedy central would have got the onion and not the sportsdome.

  • =[

    

  • onion.... what happened?

    the last good piece was the justin bieber pedophile

  • Too bad the Onion sold out to Comedy Central.

  • Shut the fuck too everyone who says Onion isn't what it used to be. Onion IS DOING FINE. I'd like to see you put half the effort they do into making just ONE of their videos. Son-of-a-B, annoying bastards.

  • @riptiki

    criticism bro .

    deal with it.

  • @riptiki Dude don't even bother. If no one cared or replied to any of their comments they'd stop commenting. Why do you even read them anyway? :P

  • @riptiki The people bitching about Onion getting payed for what they're doing are the same people who bitch about YouTube improving its layout

  • @ZaikiTheLycan lmao. Did you say YouTube improved it's layout? lol

  • @wwefanworld Well, I can't really rely on the taste of somebody with 'WWE' in his name, which is the world's least violent soap opera, and has an icon with the Cubs in it.

  • @riptiki They are "DOING FINE" financially because they sold their balls to Comedy Central--hamstrung in the creativity department. You come off as an angry 8 year old that's stomping his feet when you say "I'd like to see you blah blah blah". What the fuck? I appreciate you wanting me to, uh, get owned by Comedy Central and selling out against the wishes of my non-existent fanbase, but I'm not a comedian nor am I a terrible person. If you represent the new crowd that enjoys The Onion *facepalm*

  • @riptiki onion news yes, but sports dome is not nearly as good.

  • @riptiki

    Just because I can't do what they're doing doesn't mean the Onion can't be getting worse. That said, the new is fine, Sportsdome just sucks. Waste of a great idea.

  • @riptiki Fuck you

  • @UglyYeller No I insist, you first.

  • @riptiki u like boys, faggot

  • @SimpleBag1 Where is all this hostility coming from? Are you expressing your own feelings of sexual preference and using him as a cover?

  • @SimpleBag1 I like boys, and I'm a faggot! Wooo! I love me some men and I'm a man. Eat it biatch.

  • @SimpleBag1 u turn me on.

  • @riptiki That is a terrible argument. "Since you can't do what they do, they are doing just as well as they have always been!" Well, clearly not. They make these videos for us - the viewership - and the way the viewers respond determines how well or how poorly they are doing. Look at the likes vs. dislikes on this video. The viewership responded, and clearly they are not doing as well as they once were.

  • @Yyyyzyyy I think this video is proof that the Onion can do whatever they damn well please—which is proof enough for me that they're doing well. You think they sit around doing marketing studies, second guessing "the viewership?" Please. I wouldn't subscribe if that were the case. You want crap...goto College Humor.

  • @riptiki they don't hit on real subjects anymore :|

    sold out by the jews maybe :|

  • @riptiki

    Dude. It's the same fucks who say that College Humour isn't funny anymore.

    It's popular thus it sucks. Check out the T.V tropes on it.

    -laughs-

  • @riptiki i dont care wtf you say, but as far as the internet vids go, imo older ones were better. but then again, that's just my own opinion. Learn to fuckin respect something called an OPINION instead of calling ppl bastards. and saying "I'd like to see you put half the effort they do into making just ONE of their videos" is such a childish and immature argument. Just because I can't make vids like theirs doesn't mean I don't have a right to criticize or form an opinion.

  • @riptiki So we're not allowed to have an opinion? That's like saying: "Stop complaining about the president and be one yourself if you don't like it".

    I think the old ones was much better.

  • @riptiki Dumbass, you don't need to have actually done the same amount of work to criticize something. I am entitled to my own opinion. I can say that Justin Bieber is a talentless idiot, or that Britney Spears is a corporate whore because of her new vid

    I can certainly say that The Onion used to be funnier back when they had multiple "news casters" who could actually act, and put up a good show. The new format is just one person on stage reading the story, relying on writing instead of acting.

  • @riptiki I agree with you, but look at the ratings! There's a popular movement afoot!

  • @riptiki Yeah well the channel is half advertisements now. They're obviously banking on the T.V. show so it isn't what it used to be. And you don't have to be able to build a car to criticize a car. To be clear I don't have to be able to make one of these videos to be able to accurately assess it.

  • @riptiki "doing fine" is not the same as "what it used to be". Those two things are in no way related

  • @riptiki

    ah shut up

  • @riptiki umad bro?

  • What channel is IFC on directv?

  • Onion goes main stream and totally falls apart.

  • for people complaining about the onion not being funny anymore: you guys probably don't watch the TV show , their show is pretty much the same thing as "what it used to be" but only in a larger montage, as far as i'm concerned it only got better, so stop complaining

  • @octav4274 But only in a larger montage? What is that supposed to mean?

  • @octav4274 Some of us cant, unfortunately. Not all of us live in the appropriate countries :|.

  • @octav4274 but a lot of people cant get the channel so as far as i'm concerned the onion is gone.

  • Has the Onion lost its good writers or something?

  • It's funnier without the ads because it looks makes it look more real.

  • You know, this is a crazy thought, but maybe... just maybe.... this wasn't intended to make us laugh so much as inform us of SportsDome? See, there are these things called "commercials", and what they do is spread awareness of a product or media broadcast to expand consumption.

  • really miss the old cast and old style.

  • If it was NASCAR,then it must have been a male prostitute.

  • stop your bitching. the onion is still funny. why would they keep putting up stuff on the net when they are doing it on tv. unless you dont have cable then it sucks to be you, besides go to there website anyway

  • you people are dumbasses. IT IS ON TV NOW, IT HAS A FULL SLOT ON TV, THERE IS FAR MORE ONION THAN THERE EVER WAS SO STFU AND WATCH IT ON TV YOU STUPID BASTARDS.

  • I want the old Onion. But this is made even worse because I am in the UK. So I cant watch your full shows.

  • remember when The Onion was funny?

  • Why the hell are people complaining about the videos? Sure, their short, but they are getting cranked out almost daily now, and they're still funny.

  • If they're not careful, they'll fall into the same trap as collegehumor, and just produce a lot of boring or stupid videos rather than the occasional gem... please don't let this happen!

  • yeah i saw this on bbc

  • you do realize they still post full reports, right? they just have these on here for advertising (duhh) and they are not very big business, they're on ifc, which means independent film company/channel, which means they show independent shows and films which would not be accepted by other companies and networks because they are not enough business, get my point?

  • Just the headline is enough - it's funny because you can imagine it being true.

  • WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE CLIPS?

  • We fear change

  • @eden10203

    A trailer. Watch the show. This one's on Comedy Central, a channel that people actually have. And it's awesome.

  • @IAmARad onion actually has a tv show? awesome!

  • @eden10203 its an ad for the show my friend.

  • @eden10203 Haha, you're an idiot. This is an ad for their TV show.

  • this onion is starting to stink...

  • The orange/blue contrast is starting to get annoying... it seems to be mandatory now. :(

  • Whoever made this video has been topin'

  • GREAT, A COMMERCIAL

  • THIS SUCKS!!!! stick with your old vids

  • whats with people hating when channels become successful.

    "oh i wish they were like they used to be. i cant stand that they're actually making money now."

    its what people do, they work hard and make it big. get over yourselves.

  • @kiddhitta It's not because they made it big, it's because their youtube videos now suck. They are just plugging their TV show in these videos.

  • @didles123 its their channel. they can do what they want. they want to promote their show so more people watch it. thats like saying fuck Pepsi for putting commercials on TV, i liked it when i could just go to the store and buy it and not have to watch their commercials. its called advertising, the ONN is a business, thats whats businesses to, they advertise.

  • its not about the time of the vids for me. its the fact that they are running videos that really arent far from whats really happening so its not funny. like this, this could totaly happen and i wouldnt think twice. i wish they would go back to off the wall, in your face parody news again. either way i will keep watching for the great acting that still remains.

  • @pyledog "ts the fact that they are running videos that really arent far from whats really happening so its not funny."

    A NASCAR driver might actually run the race with a hooker in the car? Wow, pass me some of what you're smokin'..

  • lol fucking idiots. dont click the video if it says its 16 seconds long, and the title mentions a TV show's new time. dont watch it, and watch all of their other amazing videos. stupid fucks :p

  • @Linksapprentice100 stupid fuck does not realise that on some peoples homepage you can only see the first few words of each video title.

  • Gives a new meaning to "SportsDome." *shnarf*

  • See, this is why I hate it whenever a YouTube/Internet thing goes to TV. They ALWAYS get really stupid, really fast.

  • what the heck was that?

  • Boo to the short clips!

  • dislike

  • i was dislike 666 ^_^

  • shut the fuck up guys, why the hell do everything have to be free? they give you such original and great content, but they can't even have a fucking ad for their TV show? Its not like they got random ads for random shit, you fucking idiots

  • @t0m1337n It would be nice to see a bit more for people that can't watch it on TV, like me I'm from Canada and I'm sure I'm not the only one watching the onion from outside the US. 2-3 minutes videos like before and it would be allright.

  • what? what the fuck! whys this disliked i dont see anything wrong with it

    shut up trolls

  • booooo! sellouts!!!

  • @ubuntututorials I do not think they are "sellouts" but I miss the content before the TV show.

  • seellll outs fucking sell outs

  • @pedrodelfino12

    Explain to me how are they sell outs?

  • 0:16 to skip the ad

  • man,you guys are sad.its a freaking advert!clearly states 16secs long

  • THIS IS WHAT FOX NEWS IS LIKE, DONT BECOME LIKE THEM 'THE ONION'!

  • Wow...do you people not realize this is on TV? How the fuck else are they gonna get people to watch their shit? Just expect people to watch TV? Yeah right, nobody watches tv anymore, so why not advertise on their channel? Either watch it and move on, or don't. I'm sure they don't give a fuck about all of you being all butt hurt cause you actually have to make some effort to watch it. Boo-fucking-hoo.

  • @VC11122 I'm pretty sure they do give a fuck, we're the viewers, we lose interest in them, they're fucked.

  • @Mikeper94 Oh yeah, because a few hundred people not liking a video is their entire audience. Oh yeah, thats right! They have over 350,000 subscribers. Yeah....

  • @VC11122 No, he's right...their goal with these videos is to draw viewers in but instead they're just annoying is. And right now, theer are almost 5 times as many people disliking the video as there are liking it. That's pretty big. They're going to have to change it if it keeps up

  • @drumline17 Really? You all think that a few teaser's for their upcoming TV episode, when they put out an actual video also today, is going to ruin this channel? Wow....I think you people need to get out more. I mean, I'm not even saying that I like this short little clip, but come on...ruining the channel? Grow up people.

  • @VC11122 "I think you people need to get out more"? You're not even sticking to the main argument lol that's completely off topic...It's common sense that if the majority of people aren't satisfied with the product the company is going to have to change it to keep the people happy

  • @drumline17 Yeah, that was a little uncalled for...but you're not even mentioning the other part of my post, so why should I care?
