OK, who's the douche that put up that "BEARS-FINISHING WHAT KATRINA STARTED" sign?

[sasquatch]

At the NFC championship game yesterday. That's one of those few times I can tolerate police brutality.

1. Hard to believe some group was sitting around making something like that, and thinking

that they were clever. They should lose their human family visitation rights.

[Cobalt Violet]

21. It's not hard for me to believe sports fans would do this.

I expect it of them. It's just another reason for me to hate sports. Not that I need another one.

[qnr]

22. Really? Well, I'm no fan of sports, so I guess I haven't watched enough

to expect it :/

[uppityperson]

2. That is a good use of the term, good place to use it.

Some people are very thoughtless.

[sasquatch]

5. As you can see, no "Fresca" referrence either

[uppityperson]

6. I missed the Fresca bit

caught the bit about Lysol, was Fresca supposed to be used similarly?

[sasquatch]

10. Yes it was, it's matcom's new avatar in fact

[uppityperson]

12. That actually might be rather fun. Better than Lysol

thanks

3. I saw this on Countdown this evening, and it pissed me off royal!

As I posted in another forum, I hope to God they get some hard karmic retribution. :grr: :grr: :grr:

[sasquatch]

7. I think they will when Peyton Manning takes "DaBears" to school

[BlueIris]

4. That is vile. nt

[BlueStorm]

8. What sign?

Did I miss something AGAIN?!

Blue

[SeattleGirl]

13. That was on a sign at the Bears-Saints game on Sunday.

Big as hell, hanging on the side of one of the upper levels. :grr:

[BlueStorm]

17. Is there a pic? n/t

[SeattleGirl]

18. Tried to find one, Blue, but haven't yet.

Maybe you could check out the Countdown website. It was in Monday's Worst Person in the World segment.

[Zookeeper]

9. I saw that on "Countdown."

What a horrible, horrible, stupid thing to put on a sign!

Knuckleheads! :grr:

[S n o w b a l l]

11. Unbelievable...

that's a time I'd support censorship. No way should that sign have been allowed in. Die hard fans can be so obnoxious.

[sasquatch]

14. Why didn't the stadium staff tear the fucker down?

If I put up a sign that said "Cunt", "Cock", "Fuck" or anything like that on it the stadium staff @ Paul Brown Stadium would take it away and trash it. Then they'd probably throw me out.

[SeattleGirl]

15. It's beyond me why they wouldn't have taken that sign down.

I'm sure that every Bears fan/player/staff member doesn't share the sentiment of the person who made the sign.

[LeftyMom]

16. It would not ruin my day to hear the person who made that got a beatdown.

:grr:

[Bassic]

19. Whoever it is, it's a fucking idiot.

police burtality or just an angry mob would do the trick.

[deadparrot]

20. Why even put him on screen?

There's no reason to broadcast that to millions of viewers. It's like what happens when random fans rush onto the field--don't give them any camera time.

[XNASA]

23. Probably some Sox fan.

:shrug:

[seemunkee]

24. Picture posted at myspace

[Zavulon]

25. Why are signs allowed at all?

I stopped going to sports events because a.) stadiums are full of assholes who bring signs thinking they're funny and cool, b.) the broadcasters of the game actually show such signs on the air, and c.) the cycle continues because these fucking assholes want to be on TV.

In the meantime, people behind the signs get an obstructed view. What the fuck? Why is this allowed?

Last year I had a chance to go to the Super Bowl and blew it off because of shit like this.
