AFL Footy show and Sam Newman - their jokes are so lame and almost insulting. I hate watching 'Street Talk', and feel sorry for the people on there, they just find the people who clearly have some developmental delays (to put it nicely) and take the mickey out of them for some cheap laughs - to me it borders on bullying!

Same old shit every week just different content.

i went last night, for my first viewing of the footy show for the year i think, but i enjoyed it still. its crass, the jokes are silly, the fat smelly collingwood bloke next to me laughed too hard when they were being sexist or racist, but other than that it was still an enjoyable night

I call bullshit to that.

Of course they go looking for people who are, for want of a better term, special. Why else would you go into Footscray, Rundle Mall or Lygon Street at midday on a weekday when in all reality most people are working / studying etc?

Footy Show formula :

Create controversy by having Sam flashing his nuts on TV or make some outlandish remark, people watch next week to see what the fuss was about, lay low so the producers don't cop too much crap for a month or so.....then repeat, repeat, repeat.....

On air formula :

Make jokes about Bill being fat, make jokes about Gary being hairy, call each other names. Preview a game for 30 seconds. Repeat, repeat, repeat.

I think they will be in a fair bit of shit for the ball sack incident last night. I was at a sportsman's function earlier this year with Billy and he gave the impression that they were on their last chance as a live to air show.

No doubt these people are drawn to him when he visits the locations that he does, but why doesn't he go to the train station at 5:30pm and ask commuters their thoughts?

Simple, because they'd be far too logical in most cases and it wouldn't be "good TV".

Perhaps a combination? Some of the people on the segment dont look very comfortable at being confronted.

He definitely seeks out people with disabilities to show on tv. He probably does talk to intelligent people, but those interviews will never go to air because people won't laugh at people similar to themselves. People are ****, and are always up for laughing at people less fortunate than themselves.

Sams a rich, semi-intelligent guy. He openly thinks he is better than most people, so of course he's going to seek out people that make him look even better when he stands next to them, and mock them. He's a cockhead.

Cobblers. The footy show audience would be at the same academic level as the unfortunates that Newman lambasts on the street.

Another thing that gives me the shits is radio coverage of the NFL. 80% **** ads.

I can see on the tracker that stuffs happening, but all I'm hearing about is how cheap it is to lease an Acura from Lakeside Acura and Nissan. **** up and talk about the game you clowns!

Just coz he gives money to people doesn't mean he can be a ****, and its ok.

I put change in donation tins all the time, so Im gonna go around and make fun of people in the street, and single them out in front of millions of people, and thats ok ;)

Stop with the mock outrage guys. Everybody knows what the footy show is like. It has been like that for 20 years.

If course it is gutter humour and not much in the way of analysis, but come on, surely you know what to expect by now

Haha aww benny is upset? :lol:

When I read the first part, for some reason in my head i pictured that ad on tv about bullying where the girl screams out to the kids to stop it and leave the boy alone "find a voice for those who havent got one" :lol:
