Right on!

Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry said Sunday that the Monday Night Football promo for the show in which star Nicollette Sheridan confronted Philadelphia Eagles star Terrell Owens in a locker room and doffed the towel she was wearing was originally supposed to feature not Owens but MNF commentator John Madden. "A woman as glorious-looking as Nicollette Sheridan throwing herself at John Madden is just funny," Cherry said. He added, apparently tongue in cheek: "I didn't want to upset people. I didn't realize that Monday Night Football was such a family viewing experience. I wouldn't let my 5-year-old watch beer commercials with big-busted cheerleaders, but that's just me." Sheridan maintained that the intent of the promo was merely to entertain, adding, "Taking a pop culture incident like that and having it take precedence over the underlying problems of the world was absurd."

No way anyone could have mistaken than for being erotic or arousing.  I mean, there's no way Madden and ANYONE (with the exception of an X-Box) would have resulted in cries of indecency.

I'm happy the stupid chairman of the FCC is stepping down soon. Everybody in that organization needs to get those sticks out of their asses

Though the FCC just told the lawsuits against Friends, the Simpsons and Saving Private Ryan to go blow themselves.  I liked that one Smiley
