You hear more cussing in one televised football match than any child should hear.

Not all kids have short attention span....A lot of kids love to watch sports and parents shouldn't have to explain what this A$$hole meant when he thought he was funny!

If he was really funny should be able to make a decent joke....btw why was he even mentioning her?

I also think it is ridiculous the way the others were laughing...they should have called him out on his so called joke.

Fire all of them...see how funny that is.

There are plenty of replacements out there who can be decent...many people are looking for a nice pay check as these guy have.

Really? I wasn't aware every liberal had the same exact state of mind, and missed that part of the liberal handbook. We were talking about TV shows, in case you missed it... sitcoms to be exact, which stands for situation comedies. Isn't the whole purpose of a comedy & comedian to be humorous? Or am I missing something??

I said multiple times that different people have different ideas of humor, and that ours simply weren't the same... never put anyone down, just talked about what types of humor I find funny vs offensive. My only response to this thread was originally "I'm not offended," and that turned into us essentially being called trashy immoral perverts. I'm a pretty thick-skinned woman, but you will NOT attack my character without being called out on it - sorry.

Bottom line: Tracy Morgan doesn't have a lot of class. Network apologizes form him because he doesn't have enough class to do it himself. And some on the left cheer him on.

My nephew at 6 would sit and watch entire football games. Its not that unusual but I am sure you get the point. We can change the age to 7 or 8 if you like

Parents should be able to watch what should be a family friendly show with their children without having to worry about an adult saying something like Tracy said.

If this forum is any indication of what America has become, I won't miss this place one bit... if it were feasible to immigrate tomorrow, I'd be on the first plane outta here.
