If anyone else watches football they have seen the same stupid ass think I have week in and week out. Before going back to the game, FOX always lets you know who is sponsoring the next 6 minutes of action. During this time they have some robot dancing, trying to act tough or pretending to not be stupid.

Apparently this thing was cool about the same time when the FOX track puck for hockey, disco and the VW Beetle were also considered cool. Oh wait, that would be never.
In this day and age of advertising, with all the great commercials and what not going around, it would make sense to get a new strategy. Namely use something that doesn’t make me change the channel or want to punch kittens. I know what you’re thinking, how can anyone punch a kitten!? Well, it’s justifiable when you realize that the kitten eventually becomes a cat.
Here is a list of ideas that FOX can use instead of the jackass robot:
1) Nothing
2) Use it for additional advertising space, the sponsors can be sponsored!
3) Funny videos of guys getting hit in the junk
4) Football Bloopers
5) A picture in picture of a decent football game rather than the piece of crap that always seems to make it to my viewing area
6) Some kind of statistic since they seem to show more and more and keep track of more and more
7) Showing Riverdance people dance with apparently no ligaments in their knees
8) Showing these people dancing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-94JhLEiN0
9) Showing this guy dance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikTxfIDYx6Q
10) This guy dancing would be more fun than the game most likely, just put this as the main screen and in the corner put the actual game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg
11) How about someone picking out their toe nail with an ice pick!
12) How about Elaine from Seinfeld dancing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xi4O1yi6b0
FOX can use any of these ideas, but broadcasting, or any other pictures, descriptions, or any logical idea during the game, without the my express written consent, is strictly prohibited.
