Is it just me or was the intro segment to Monday Night Football this week just wrong? For those of you that missed it, Nicollette Sheridan of Desperate Housewives encountered Terrell Owens in the lockerroom just before the game. Dressed only in a towel, she enticed Owens into a sexual encounter ala her character on the sleazy TV show.

It wasn’t the role reversal of a white woman forcing herself on a black man that upset me. It wasn’t the R-rated theme on what is supposed to be a G-rated sporting event. It wasn’t even the shameless plug for a shameless TV show… it was the fact that they thought us football fans wanted to see this or gave a shit about Desperate Housewives.

It is just further evidence of the decline of professional sports. In a discussion with Mike Wright the other day, we both agreed that high school and college sports are FAR superior to every professional sport and crap like this just continues to prove it.
