The first guy interviewed was simply being an arrogant jerk. Surely the war in Iraq is not the only subject anyone is allowed to discuss. Of course on television you don't have Iraq war commentary 24/7 on every channel. What an annoying guy!
oh common...yes what he said is semi-true and of course a very serious thing that does not get as much coverage as it should, but there is always a sports section to all news reports.
IF EVERY NEWS STATION TALKED ABOUT THE WAR 24/7 THAT GUY WOULD BITCH ABOUT THAT TOO...annoying if you ask me, trying to get attention.
Yo, Ryan fucking owned this little piece of shit pussy bitch reporter SO HARD. I am SO PROUD to stand alongside you, dear ryan, where ever you are. You are the FUCKING MAN, and thank you for having the BALLS to stand up, and the BRAINS to not be fooled by all this fucking bull-shit ENTERTAINMENT that has absolutely SATURATED our society.
talking about politics won't change anything, it'll just polarize people on things they cannot change...i think that guys was being an asshole simply to be an asshole...he knew why the reporter was talking to him and he had to talk about a war that none of us can get rid of...if he gave a shit for real, he'd be in DC trying to make a change intead of eating a western omlette at 5:30 in the morning...
@branofnamebran love you comment! Also, clearly since he was sitting at his table he told him before that it was fine to ask me about sports. that dudes just trying to be a dick and get some attention.
what a bunch of liberal fags....so because there is a war on we arent supposed to talk about any sports,,,im sure if the reporter asked the treehugger if week should be legal he would have been all over it...so tired of fucking liberals...
hahhahaha it all went wrong for the reporter in this interview hahaah He did a really good job mainting his cool while some guy was dancing in the bacground, another guy trying to start a political debate and a girl with terrible answers LOL!!
we have to stop reporting about sporting events because theres a war going on? Give me a fucking break. By the way that guy looks like a D-bag with his stupid soul patch
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The guy he interviewed is such a dumb ass. Like Iraq is the only thing we are supposed to talk about. I was there twice there isn't much to say. I'd rather come home and watch sports than talk about it. Idiot
Props to the interviewee, but don't give the reporter a hard time, he's just doing his job. The reason they're talking about sports is because there's still a demand for it to be reported on by private (profit-making) news corporations. If there's blame to be handed out for that it should be laid upon the viewing public.
Wow...that guy had the smuggest fucking smirk on his face. And I say that as a smug Canadian...it's not often that a guy on the street out-douches the reporter, but this guy's an exception. The look on his face says: "dude, I totally hope i can get a tape of this. Then I can show everyone how cool I am!"
RYAN IS A BAD MOTHERFUCKER! Thank God someone is trying to keep their sanity. Why the hell dont we talk about Iraq? Who gives a fuck about bret farva.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
why are you sitting in that cafe if there is a war going on that you are so concerned about? go protest, hug a tree, free a child mollester, get a second job (if you have a 1st) and buy some carbon offsets, get a girl pregnant and abort the baby, oh, and suck a dick.
lol, he probably thinks he just did something with his "life".
serious what a fucking loser wish these people would shut the fuck up about the fucking war already im so sick of this shit already that was not cool he truly is a dumbass
i wouldnt go as far s to say that everyone knows there chance of death is high when they sign up but to be a dipshit like that on live tv is not ok he can go plant a tree if he really feels that way
yeah i know. these liberals are so stupid in how they care about the planet. yeah, i say we blow everything up to teach them a lesson. praise the lord are god for he hath given us this land to do whatever we want with it. And last time i checked God was the one who wanted us to go to iraq in the first place. stupid liberal turkey whores!!!!!!
dude thats so far off the subject its not even funny i sid nothing bout the wr being just in ny way i just think the way that guy acted was really stupid go to public access if you want to talk about that crap not a live airing of something else.i really cant support anything you just said
Wow, someone doesn't have a brain. There usually is a middle, or the correct answer. Which is why a lot of people say, "There are three oppinions here. Your's, mine, and the one thats right,"... Seriously? I am a Republican and I am an Athiest. Obviously iloveericlyons is a freak, don't share your own stupid stereotypes. The world knows now that the Iraq war was a mistake. But honestly? You pull out and Iraq is in deep shit. Iran would invade right away. Terrorists would BREED there.
If I was the reporter I woulda said "I'm asking you about sports because im a well... SPORTS reporter... If you have questions about Iraq than call the white house." The reporter was just doing his job.
They were talking about sports because at the time it seemed like Favre was going to retire. Sure, it's not "War in Iraq" bigtime news, but for all we know they spent 20 minutes of the newscast on Iraq.
Dude was spot on! Why the hell were they reporting on sports anyway, leave that shit to sportscenter. We watch the news for real information, not bullshit football...
@theartsofebony spot on? news is what ever information is most relevant to the person. i am not sure about you, but sports is still something relevant to some people in this world. important hardline news? no, it is not. sports is still news. they can report iraq stuff.... AND news. its possible. and its done several times every day. there are people who watch news broadcasts n enjoy this information. therefore, sports will be left in. sorry to put some truth to your comment. just had to rectify
That reporter was in TV news hell, but it was damn funny. Forget for a moment about the subject matter brought up by the interviewee. The 180 degree turnaround on the reporter is almost as priceless as that smug-ass smirk that he has on his face after they cut back from talking to the girl who actually answered the question. Plus the guy outside is just hilarious. By the way, if you notice, it is 5:30 am. Lots of drunkards still wondering the Eastside in the early morning.
I'm sorry Ryan but I have 2 agree that u should've jus answered the question.Thanks for ur concern about what's happening in Iraq, but there's a good time 4 everythin.If there was a huge explosion one day and many ppl died and then later that day there was a kinda important game, I would've watched it.Or at least watched the news bout it cuz ppl need 2 give their minds some rest.I couldn't help but 2 laugh at the reporter though.Well done there cuz he looked like a jerk,lol
I just can't stop laughing about the guy outside the window. Where was I when this was going on? I live literally across the street from ma fischer's.
What that smug guy was talking about was the biggest story around at the time and was getting tons of coveage.
But people still want to know about football. People criticize the news for being depressing and then criticize it again for being trivial. News is a balance, and when you're at a sports bar, you obviously aren't spending 100 per cent of your time worrying about the war yourself. Let the people at home enjoy a 1 minute piece on football in their day.
Theres a time for everything. News on sports, celebrities, politics, crime etc....Its not like the war gets ignored. Especially the effect it has on soldiers, volunteers & iraq civillians. I work in an airport which has a flight coming from Baghdad, Ive seen the effect of chemical bomb on a 12 yr old boy, which now has no hope for a normal future.
way to be professional on live television....seriously the reporter and the news station were just doing their job. Make your point at a more appropriate time, otherwise you just annoy people.
And btw, I support all our troops and prayerfully will join the US Air Force in 2010.
omg shut the fuck up and answer his question. now its not like i dont care about the war but what the fuck is listening to him talking about the war gonna do to help it? seriously!
He presents a completely off-base point to try and be "edgy" and "political" to impress the girl in the stupid fucking hat and the fag sitting next to her. There's a time to talk about football and a time to talk about war.
It's unfortunate that people like that smug bastard exist, they ought to be eliminated to remove the stupidity from the gene pool.
That guy was a douche. This is the only war where the media celibrates death toll milestones. They may be worth a mention but the media is making it the lead story in most cases and also gleefully counting up to the milestones months ahead of time. Meanwhile 7000 people die each year from misreading doctors perscriptions. That death toll is seven times higher.
That's my point exactly. On the day when it was announced that 3,000 troops had died since the beginning of the US occupation of Iraq, the lead story on this channel was not a testament to the sacrifices that they have made, or a re-evaluation of the war itself, but speculation about a game. That's shameful. If Americans cared half as much about foreign affairs as we do about what guys in tights do on the weekend, that we wouldn't be waiting for the 4,000th body to come home any day now.
The reporter wasn't quick on his feet. This knucklehead wants to make a political point and there were so many ways he could have been embarrassed by the reporter because of it.
lol riiiight b/c the news is ONLY supposed to be about the war in Iraq .. it's Important yes but jeez ass what about current events (even tho i'm not a football fan) i felt bad for that reporter lol fake smiles on everyone's faces and akward tension eww
Kind of mean to the dude who was just doing his job. Good for him for keeping cool about it. They were so waiting to mess with him. He had no chance. Where was that lame city. LOL
Thanks, I think I'll just bring up a completely irrelevant statement in every single conversation I have from now on, if I feel strongly enough about it.
it wasn't that people don't care about the topic...sports was the topic at the time. Time and place for everything...God bless our troops just the same....
People just can't be please. As for ignorance of things, whether they do or do not matter, that's pretty common anymore. Try asking U.S. citizens what freedoms are "guaranteed" by the first amendment to the Constitution without crying after they answer, assuming they even can..
what you need to understand is everybody ain't like u, and do not have any responsibilities, so they are free to ponder everything. U need to watch the new Suncom commercials.
It is our internet. It was created by DARPA which is our governmental agency. Then schools adopted it and it eventually turned in to something more public that other people used. We still control the name registration root servers even after pressure to globalize them. It is our internet.
canada, as a whole is a bitch. They just took France's spot thanks to mister quebec as the World's Bitch. Ask him how many of those "civilians" we're actually terrorists
ok the media doesnt control us, if you dont want it to then dont do what it says. Thats what confuses me about hippies they say that the government says what is right, but they can't if your opinion is that it is wrong. So you control your own life not media or government.
And to back up why I just let him hear what he wanted to hear... HIS HAND WAS SHAKING! Dont pick on the dude, it was bad enough he didnt know he was talking to you! XD :P
Well thanks for the kind words, but I should point out that Chris (the one in the pink hat) is not my girlfriend, that I am single, and that I only date media-savvy progressives. In any case, I can't fault her for not blindsiding him, too - he clearly needed some assistance there; you don't often hear reporters asking for help.
I liked the courage he had, but I also enjoyed his looking and smiling at the reporter's face. He seemed to ask, "What are you going to reply to that!".
I'm a huge Brett Favre fan (albeit a Cowboys fan), and I, too, think that it's ridiculous that the media was paying more attention to a football game than the death of the 3,000th soldier in Iraq. Whoop-de-damn doo; the Packers went 8-8! They still missed the playoffs, and yet they were reporting on a meaningless Week 17 game!
That guy is cool. The money spent on football every year could have cured how many diseases? Fed how many hungry kids? Funded how many projects to reduce waste and poverty? How many solar panels do you see in your neighborhood? How many dogs are penned in all day? Think.
it's funny how ridicule and stereotypes can turn even a smart comment like that into one that you think is stupid. it's people like you who give the media such an easy job controlling us. (but I bet that makes me a crackpot conspiracy theorist, huh?)
Here you are, complaining about how the media is "controlling us", meanwhile you're defending a guy who wants to control where our money goes. Liberals always know how to spend our money better than we do. I'll tell you what - eliminate the NFL, eliminate all forms of entertainment, and make us all work for the government - that way you can control where all our money goes, rid the world of pollution, crime, and hate speech, and form a beautiful utopia on earth.
and why do you think they're called "mittens"? I'll tell you - it gets COLD during those Packers/Vikings games, and if it takes twenty dead cats to make sure my fingers are toasty while I'm double fisting overpriced beer and heckling Brett Favre, so be it. Think, people.
Sports are, for many people, a way of taking your mind off the stress of daily life and completely losing yourself in something for a few hours. Sure there are problems in Iraq and within the US government, but do we really need to see it at every single turn?
No, that's a valid point. My objection wasn't with sports in general, but that this was the lead story on the news the same day that the death of the 3000th US soldier had been announced. I was trying to comment on the priorities of the media, and that whether or not a guy will throw a football next season should not take precedence over a reminder that we are occupying another country by force. Well that, and that Packer fans wear fake cheese on their heads...
Nice to see not all americans are brainwashed. & LOL @ favre95 using the word ignorant. Obviously he does not know the meaning of the word. It's like a car thief telling the cop, "I'm not breaking the law, you are!" & thinking he's right.
Good work to the guy in the blue shirt keeping it real, and especially good work to the guy sticking his tongue out outside the shop and following the camera. Except for PBS, TV news is a joke and we should encourage bonehead behaviour.
You're right, Favre95. Clearly, whether or not some guy throws around a piece of dead pig next year should have been the lead story that night, not the 3000th US troop death in Iraq. I have to think that if we paid as much attention to international politics as we do sports, we wouldn't have gone to war in the first place.

No...
He presents a completely off-base point to try and be "edgy" and "political" to impress the girl in the stupid fucking hat and the fag sitting next to her. There's a time to talk about football and a time to talk about war.
It's unfortunate that people like that smug bastard exist, they ought to be eliminated to remove the stupidity from the gene pool.

That guy was a douche. This is the only war where the media celibrates death toll milestones. They may be worth a mention but the media is making it the lead story in most cases and also gleefully counting up to the milestones months ahead of time. Meanwhile 7000 people die each year from misreading doctors perscriptions. That death toll is seven times higher.

Wow... Ryan is a faggot, or retarded. The question had nothing to do with Iraq, unless the Packers play in Baghdad, which I may have missed.
Miller50Center 4 years ago
That's my point exactly. On the day when it was announced that 3,000 troops had died since the beginning of the US occupation of Iraq, the lead story on this channel was not a testament to the sacrifices that they have made, or a re-evaluation of the war itself, but speculation about a game. That's shameful. If Americans cared half as much about foreign affairs as we do about what guys in tights do on the weekend, that we wouldn't be waiting for the 4,000th body to come home any day now.

I'm a huge Brett Favre fan (albeit a Cowboys fan), and I, too, think that it's ridiculous that the media was paying more attention to a football game than the death of the 3,000th soldier in Iraq. Whoop-de-damn doo; the Packers went 8-8! They still missed the playoffs, and yet they were reporting on a meaningless Week 17 game!

Here you are, complaining about how the media is "controlling us", meanwhile you're defending a guy who wants to control where our money goes. Liberals always know how to spend our money better than we do. I'll tell you what - eliminate the NFL, eliminate all forms of entertainment, and make us all work for the government - that way you can control where all our money goes, rid the world of pollution, crime, and hate speech, and form a beautiful utopia on earth.

Sports are, for many people, a way of taking your mind off the stress of daily life and completely losing yourself in something for a few hours. Sure there are problems in Iraq and within the US government, but do we really need to see it at every single turn?
Outrack 4 years ago
No, that's a valid point. My objection wasn't with sports in general, but that this was the lead story on the news the same day that the death of the 3000th US soldier had been announced. I was trying to comment on the priorities of the media, and that whether or not a guy will throw a football next season should not take precedence over a reminder that we are occupying another country by force. Well that, and that Packer fans wear fake cheese on their heads...

favre95 5 years ago
You're right, Favre95. Clearly, whether or not some guy throws around a piece of dead pig next year should have been the lead story that night, not the 3000th US troop death in Iraq. I have to think that if we paid as much attention to international politics as we do sports, we wouldn't have gone to war in the first place.
