    Uhm, a cockup? Eeeh...!

    Not much more to say really. Will leave fellow El Reg readers to add additional penial puns involving such fine tags as stiff, hard, penetrate and more.

    Paris, because in such a situation, she would reward her naughy staff with a big raise...

    Well, let's face it, you'd need something to break up the absolute monotony of American "Football"! Hell, even I'd watch it if it were interspersed with pron!

    Roll on the Test Match: "She was only the batsman's daughter, but she could take a full toss in the crease!"

    Surely...

    ... it's just replacing one lot of bollocks (Superbowl) with another set (Grumble flick)?

    Purely coincidental that one of the companies involved is "Cox Communications" :-)

    Paris, because she's only seen a cockatoo

    Not a first by any means

    There was the case of some guy in an apartment block who like to video himself in grumble mode, and piped it into the back of his TV from where it leaked back into the rest of the building's cable network, treating his neighbours to views of new and unknown places.

    I wonder

    How many people rang their cable operator to complain and how many to enquire how they subscribe to the channel concerned

    Bet the latter outweighed the former

    I Guess...

    ...this sort of puts wardrobe malfunctions with nipple glimpses and and the infamous "Godaddy.com" commercials into some form of context.

    IT angle? Well this event could have been avoided if they had ID cards, Biometric Passports and Phorm installed.

    As an American...

    I'm annoyed that more is made of such tomfoolery than is made of gratuitous violence.

    There was a television info-mercial the other evening where someone was asking if "that certain part of a man's anatomy" could be broken. The presenter stated that yes, "that part of a man's anatomy" can indeed break. WTF is wrong with saying "penis" on late-night television, cable or otherwise???

    Didn't something like this happen a few months ago? I think it was Australian football or rugby, but can't remember the details.

    Because the part of the anatomy they are talking about isn't the penis, silly! They never do say what part is being enlarged, or enhanced, or whatever. My guess is either the liver or the belly. Or perhaps the kidneys. Or possibly the prostrate. But it sure the heck ain't the penis.

    No, I'm not going to waste my money finding out.

    would'nt happen in Europe

    In the mid nineties, when i were a lad and sailed the seven sea's with a yellow submarine,looking at pipelines (someone had to do it) we were dock in Den Helder on the German Dutch border, we had some nice video transmission kit on board to forward video links to a lay barge, although i had clearly labeled a video recorder "NO PORN VIDEO TRANSMITTER" i was sitting in a local coffee shop when the proprietor received a phone call, and promptly re-tuned the TV......

    No one complained, When I said I'd have to go back to the ship and stop this, the gave me free weed to leave it on, 5 days of free weed no complaints talk about coals to Newcastle , bloody yanks complaining.

    I was thinking the conspiracy that resulted in the elicit broadcast, which was almost certainly a Terrorist attack involving Optimus Prime (explaining why he was barred from entry into the US).

    What you where thinking? Pervert!

    Rebecca get a clue. Film violence is fake. Nudity is not.

    Lets face it though, almost everyone watching football probably settled for that because it was too early for porn. So no harm done.

    and yeah...It sounds familiar too me too..I think another story like this did happen quite recently.
