MNF

Snoop Dogg on Monday Night Football? That’ll piss off the religious rizzle, fo’ shizzle

I don’t get it, ABC. Just when I think I have you figured out, you throw a curve ball. I figured the godawful Tim McGraw spots and the obsession with all things horse-related (horse trailers, horse collars, etc.) were a tip of the Stetson to all those heartland-conservative types that you alienated. You know, the ones that had barely recovered from Nipplegate on CBS when you hit them with the promo featuring Nicollette Sheridan and Mandingo Owens.

Makes sense. They freak out so you Hee Haw-up MNF for a season while they cool down. But then, just when you’re almost right with the prayer circle set, you go and bust out the D O Double G!

Don’t get me wrong — I love Snoop. But then I also like scantily-clad women; my only objection to the Owens-Sheridan spot was the connection to that stupid Desperate Housewives show.

It’s just hard to believe he’s put the painted whores and devil weed far enough behind him to be righteous in the eyes of the righteous. Sure he’s (supposedly) kicked his dope habit in favor of coaching Pop Warner football, but has he truly been cleansed in blood of the lamb?

You’ll probably find little consolation in this when you’re fending off a hoard of locusts, but your brave spokesdoggy choice redeemed you at least a little in the eyes of some of us. We’ll call off the Tim McGraw boycott for now. Bow-wow-wow-yippie-yo-yippie-yay.
